Was the knot left on the twine that was over top of the bale or on the bottom. If on the bottom, maybe the knife is set too high? I recall that being the issue on my 269. Dunno if the knotters are relatively the same or not. If anything, go online with NH & download a .pdf manual. Can't imagine it's that expensive & then you have it right away.

If all else fails, hit it with a hammer. ;v)

Do you have the manual? The manual is the most important tool in your box! Go thru every step and make it right. The knifes have to be razor sharp! New knifes or what I did, three step diamond stones from Harbour Freight. Sounds like it could be dull knifes.
 
The most common problem for missing the knot on #1 twine is not enough tension on the twine holder allowing the twine to slip out. Excessive tension at the twine box can also cause it but that is not a common problem. Trying to bale too tight of a bale can also cause it.

Twine finger adjustment or twine disc adjustment. Could also be the tension at the twine box. Too loose.
 
The number one needle was out of adjustment played with that a little need to check twine finger again the bill hook is grabbing it but it still won’t knot both twine
