to continue on with my problem, I can bale 8 to 10 bale with no problem, and then "as you look from the back of the baler" on the left side of the bale sometimes it will not tie the not securely. the right side is ok. Any ideas on an adjustment? I've looked in the owners manual, and can't really find an answer, nor can I find a mechanic in this area with any knowledge about the older balers. Thanks, vernell

My first thought is your billhook could be damaged and is unable to hold the knot tightly. My other thought is twine disc timing or twine finger or twine tension at the knotter..

Before you can check twine finger or twine disc, have you checked that your needle(s) are adjusted correctly to just "rub" the frame of the knotters?

Once the needles are good, look at your twine fingers. In older balers there can be enough "wear" in the hole that actuating rod is in that the finger doesn't stay in adjustment. If it's worn, you might try putting a bronze bushing in the hole rather than replacement.

I would also make sure that your twine disc is adjusted to catch and hold the twine properly, remember this is done with twine in the disc.

Finally, check your twine tension at the knotter. You might increase tension on the twine holder slightly.
