I have inherited an older MF 124 string baler. The problem I am having is the string on one side is coming out longer than the other side. It is not so noticable on alfalfa, but when I use it on any type of grass hay it makes a mess. I guess the grass is slick and the bales break regularly when falling off the back. I spent most of the day yesterday following the baler while we used it. The needles are coming up at the exact same time. The knotters twist at the exact same time, but then the right knot slips off of the knotter about 5 seconds before the left side. My bales come out banana shaped and break when they twist out and hit the ground. Everything is lubed, and but may need to be sharpened. I do not have an opperators manual so I am not sure of all the adjustments. My grandpa who was the original owner is now dead, and I have a long list of questions I wish I would have asked him. I cannot figure out what else to do. I would appreciate any help on this topic.
