Hello all,I"m getting an extremely late start on baling this year (long story), and I"ve run into big issues with my knotters. I just took the baler out of storage and was cleaning and greasing her up for a short run of bales for my neighbor. I decided to test the knotter operation by cycling the baler by hand before I left and I found out that the safety latch wasn"t coming out of the bale chamber in time to miss the plunger. To remedy this problem I had to lengthen the rod that attaches the knotter mechanism to the needle yoke by 3 turns. Everything looks good so I go to take her into the field and I"m missing EVERY knot!!! Last year before I put it away the left side wouldn"t miss one in 100 and the right side would miss one in 20. I grabbed my manual and loosed up my twine disc tension, loosened up the bill hook tension and sharpened the knives and it now ties every knot, but they aren"t tight enough and they pull out when the bale expands. What adjustment is there to make a tighter knot? I checked in the manual and they had me look at the bill hook jaw for a sharp point. But neither of my bill hooks had a sharp point. Any help would be appreciated!!!!!
