    New Holland Knotter Troubleshooting Guide

    Your twine disc does definitely look worn. And I'd replace that hay dog too, which will unfortunately probably mean a lot of heat and frustration when those pins seize. I was going to comment on the worn grooves in the twine disc earlier, but it (kind of) looked like they were doing their job in...

    American Bosch PSB6A-75C-3411A Injection pump, I know they're a pain

    As John says, common problem and easy fix - takes about 5 minutes and done with the pump still on the tractor. Take a look at my response in this thread (link below) where I give a parts breakdown and say what seal number to order. Any industrial supply can get one. Same seal for a 4 or 6...

    New Holland Knotter Troubleshooting Guide

    While I couldn't guarantee with certainty that this is your problem, it looks to me like the twine disc tension is far too tight for sisal. As the bill hook does its roll, it needs to be able to pull some slack of the #1 twine back through the twine disc. Watch in the video animation above from...

    New Holland Knotter Troubleshooting Guide

    It does sound like either a twine disc holding issue, or else just dull knives. A dull knife will try and hack and gouge its way through, and often push one or both of the twines out of the hook before cutting them. Either that or a weak hook - either too little tension or worn jaws that need to...

    New Holland Knotter Troubleshooting Guide

    Re-reading your last (and original) post, I stand corrected. I was misremembering and thknking it was the other twine thst was missing the knot. But if it is the needle twine that has the knot, yes, the tucker is probably working correctly.

    New Holland Knotter Troubleshooting Guide

    The number one twine is pulled down-stream into the bill hook, so it's not at all dependent on thr tucker fingers to be positively held over the hook - it already is. The number two twine is very much dependent over the tucker fingers to be positively held in the hook. Go to the 1:28 mark inthe...

    New Holland Knotter Troubleshooting Guide

    You can adjust the tension on the bill hook. Have you tried that? I'd probably back off the twine disc tension if you have it tightened all the way - it can cause a lot of hang-ups if too tight. If the hay dogs aren't doing their job and the bale is allowed to 'back off' during knotting, it can...

    Dunham Lehr 22 loader cylinder disassembly

    Dunham Lehr was an American company. From Indiana, if I remember right. Later merged with Farmhand, then Farmhand was bought by Agco. And driving on the left came first (back in the horse-drawn days).

    Dunham Lehr 22 loader cylinder disassembly

    Would a piece of shim-stock wrapped around it not do the trick? To act as a sleeve to get past the internal groove? Seals that have to slide past internal snap-ring grooves aren't exactly uncommon. Don't know that I've ever seen one on a cylinder, but I definitely have on a few hydraulic PTO...

    New Holland Knotter Troubleshooting Guide

    I first wondered the same thing, but in his original post, he says the #1 twine on the 'passenger side'. I interpret that as him using the New Holland manual, which refers to the #1 twine being the one over top (and I interpret the passenger side being the right-hand knotter).

    New Holland Knotter Troubleshooting Guide

    Further to above, yoy say you adjusted the twine tension, but did you adjust the bill hook or disc holder tension? If you're using plastic twine, those often need to be increased a smidge. Apart from that, start with sharpening the twine knives, reducing the stripper to hook clearance so it...

    New Holland Knotter Troubleshooting Guide

    Here's the excerpt I have. With this guide (attached PDF) plus this video (link below), you can pretty much figure out all knotter problems. Applicable to most knotters - not just NH. Pretty much every make/model of baler from the 1940's on used Deering pattern knotters made by Rasspe, so it...

    8N bogs down

    You say you replaced the carb. That would be my primary concern. There are oodles of aftermarket carbs available for N's, and very (very, very) few are any good. Especially the Amazon type ones that are less than $100. There are loads of threads on the N sub-forum below about the problems with...

    Anybody used (using) a IHC model 82 pull type combine ?

    I have two AC model 66's and one 90. And a chap around the corner from one of our farms had an 82 I spent a lot of time around. The IH is ten times the combine the All-Crops are. The all crops were incredibly popular because they were cheap enough to bring combining ability to farms everywhere...

    Why did they do that?

    I'd anticipate pulling the motor myself if you can't get at the bolts with a torch. I wouldn't even try spinning out manifold bolts that old without a lot of heat from the O/A torch first - elsewise there's a good chance they'll twist off and you'll have a much bigger extraction job on your...
