I nee some direction, please. I bought a 1991 JD 328 baler last Fall that had been sitting unused in a local barn for most of it's life. Per the owners, less than 1000 total bales. And it looks legit.
It won't run more than four bales in a row without a string problem. The knots don't seem to release and there end up two or three strings held by the knotter- both sides act up independently, rarely at the same time.
It did this to me last Fall when I baled the last 55 fourth cutting bales, and over the Winter I polished the knotter parts as best I could with wire brushes and emery cloth, thinking there may be rust issues. I also added only one pump of new grease to each zerk, and soaked all the knotter moving parts with penetrating oil to lossen the old, sticky grease.
Fortunately, I kept my old 336 and finished the field without missing a single bale!
The new one sure is quiet, and wider, and smooth, but if it won't tie, it's just lawn art...
