I have a 273 New Holland baler that I am having trouble with. I have used it for two seasons, including completing 1800 bales already this year. HOWEVER – I have a problem now and we cannot figure it out. We cannot find anything broken or missing. The knotter gets tripped – needles go forward – both knots complete fine – the needles come back and lock – THEN THE PROBLEM IS – they drop forward immediately after. THEN, by needle latch pops out – and my shear pin breaks so that I don’t break my needles. Why are my needles dropping forward after locking back? Timing is correct. Any ideas?
