Finally done! Had more danged strange problem this year...1st cut broke the spring on the twine fingers, almost unnoticeable and son and I followed the baler for a full round before discovering the spring was broken half way. 2nd cut the pto U-joint at the baler clutch broke...welded on. I've got a spare parts baler, but to switch of coarse the shaft was female and the one off my baler was male so had to switch hitches too....2-1/2 hours downtime!Yesterday outside knotter quit tying. We fooled with that knotter for an hour before discovering the twine tensioner had cracked! Then on son's first round slipped off edge into peat ground, took a Oliver 77. Super 77 and the skid loader to pull the whole mess out. Got 5 acres to do for the village farm....due for some good luck!
