Read your earlier posts and all the replies. My old NH270 backup suddenly started loosing the twine out of the needle only after tying several hundred bales earlier in the year. I tried everything to fix it, twine disc adjustment, twine tension. Then I reread the writeup about this NH baler problem in Haytalk. Last thing on the list to check...loops in the twine? Is the ball of twine in upside down? Turns out I had put new twine in to start the year but tied in an old partial ball from the previous year as backup. The old twine, while stored for the winter the wrapper was ripped, so hard to tell up or down. The new twine ran out and when it switched to the old twine it started loosing the needle. When I checked it carefully I could see where I goofed. Just flipped the twine ball over, rethreaded the needles and made 100 ties straight. I would have never found the problem without the writeup.
