Gehl 1500A pictures

Good afternoon. I have a well used Gehl 1500A that I purchased and I am having issues with bale size indicator. The parts manual shows more parts for the system than are on my unit. Does anyone have pictures of the correct parts and cord routing they can share?
Also, how about a picture of the decal that goes with the bale size indicator. I have found the part number, but no indication of what it looks like. Does it have feet marked on it or just lines? I have baled with this unit twice and my bale size is all over the place due to the indicator not moving as it should.
Thanks in advance!!

Do you have the arrow for the indicator? I don't have any pictures,and it's been so long that I can't remember just exactly where everything went,but there was what was essentially a screen door spring that pulled that arrow back to the start position then a cotton rope through a pulley that was attached somewhere inside the top part of the framework on the right hand end in line with the arrow. That rope just tied off to the belt rack up on top somewhere so when the rack moves back as the bales get larger,it pulls the arrow across the top. They had a decal,but if you don't mind some lines painted on,make a mark where the arrow sits when the baler is empty,then make another mark where it's full just before it would start spitting the hay out the back. They were divided up in to marks to indicate feet with one foot,two feet,etc,up to five where it's full,then there were shorter lines for half feet if memory serves me right.
