Replaced the left side knotter this morning and still no luck with it working right. Only thing really there I see to adjust is the spring tension on the yoke holding pressure against the knotter. Just like the old knotter I repaired when the needle got out of align and hit it a couple years ago this replaced part will let it pass a few bales okay and then the twine will go in between the knotter and the yoke instead of over the top like it should.
Could the new needle need bent more toward the right so it's closer to the part of the knotter that catches the twine ?
Just watched this video on youtube and this baler ( not mine ) is starting to show the same problem on the left hand side. The baler in the video is half way going inside the knotter while mine goes all the way out of sight.
Thanks for any help given, I'm at the end of the rope with this baler.
