I have a New Holland 273.
This season the baler has been hanging up twine on the bill hook.
It started happening every other bale to start, now is happening every 35-50. Went with it, thinking that once it shined up a little it would get better...which it did...but this baler is like a clock usually - 1-2 broken bales per thousand...
1. Is there any adjustments to make to compensate for wear on the wiper?
2. It seems to have cleaned up pretty good...any chance it needs a good scrub with some Emory cloth?
3. Should I go ahead and replace the bill hook/wiper arm and be done with it? Or is this going to turn into a chain of replacing stuff?
Knotters haven't been touched in the 40 years this baler has existed...last year...due to bad circumstances...mostly my own stupidity...it did not make it into the shed for the first time ever...which I fear is the catalyst here...
How should I proceed - would like to solve it before the next time I cut.
