Number one. If you can't make a baler tie in the yard by holding the strings from an empty chamber, it's not going to tie in the field. That said... have you adjusted the tension on the bill hook fingers? Id start there with the one that won't strip. Loosen it off until it's moving free, then bring it back up so it will just hold onto both ends of the twine without letting them slip away... then mabey a little more tighter. If at that point it won't strip the knot... look closely at the relationship of the stripper to the billhook. The spec is to make contact at 11/16 from the tip... and thats fairly hard contact... but it needs to stay pretty tight to the tip or it won't wipe. If the stripper is gaining a lot of clearance towards the tip I'd say either the stripper arm bushing is very worn or the billhook is worn/bent. For what it's worth, I went through this with my 532 about 12 years ago and it gave me a lot of misery before I got it to tie. It needed new billhooks... and they were bent relative to the new ones. If you replace them you'd do well to put all twine hooks in it. NewHollands use the same hook, or at least the 532 did. Far as the string eyes go... just find something that looks close and fab up what you need to hold them. Parts support for those things is poor to say the least.

As with many things there are often several right answers and a few wrong ones. Some purist I'm sure will disagree to no end with what I will tell you but most of us out here in the real world don't really care do we ? Some of them only bring their noses down out of the air long enough to look down them anyway. If you are like me you are only doing this old tractor stuff because you enjoy it. You
