was going over the equiptment today and noticed on my MF-3 bailer that one of the springs that the twine runs through as it leaves the twine box is broken, does anyone know who would have these and second how important are these? the bailer was running fine when we put her away so i would assume that it was broke for a while but we all know what happens when we assume something!
thanks in advance, steve

Steve,
The spring which you refer to is used to keep tension on the twine. You want tension on the twine for several reasons that I can think of:
1. Keep the twine from trailing on the ground and catching something which will pull all the twine out of your baler.
2. Prevent too much twine from spooling out when the needle assembly cycles rapidly. If there is no tension, the twine will keep unwinding in the spool and create a rats nest.

As far as where to get a replacement part, I have no idea. But I think that a replacement would be easy enough to fabricate with a small piece of spring steel with a small bolt. Position the twine under the clip to keep tension on it.

Good luck!
