A friend has one of these balers. It's pretty old, all manual. It has a double tie system. There are two twine arms that come together in the middle of the bale and travel out to the edges. The arms cross over each other in the middle, but there is never any string on the middle 8 - 10 inches of the bale. We have made adjustments to everything we can think of with no change. We have started the tie before we stop the tractor thinking maybe the twine isn't getting pulled in during the first part of the cycle. We have restarted the tie cycle after the arms have traveled out for a few seconds. We have left the arms crossed over in the middle for several rotations. Nothing does any good. Can anyone tell me where I might go to find some help on this? Thanks.
