ok so 6 hours later me and my tractor mechanic are at a stand still .... granted he is a NH guy but has over 20 years of repairs under his belt and well I'm the daughter of a mechanic, but still a novice with a service manual and 6 years of haying and knotter troubles in the past that I have usually work through thanks to online videos and reading
anyhow here is the stumper: one knotter is not cutting the second string ... or maybe the second string isn't even getting in to the right place on the billhook to be cut (at cutting speed its hard to tell) ... then it goes and wraps up around the roller half the time on the billhook making a mess and can at times pop the roller out of the tension arm grove
when you stop the tractor to look, you have no string in the twine disk holder and two strings going from the front to the back and the knotter makes a knot out of one string and a frayed half cut from the second string
see photo ... and oddly sometimes it missed the second string completely and you get a single string knot ... that photo also attached
and yes the knife blade has been changed out and the scraper blade is tight
