Hello Guys,
I have an older baler (IH 430 "All Twine") that works pretty well for the most part. I pull it with a new Massey 1736 (36 hp) and it misses a knot on every 15 to 20 bales but I deal with it. Anyway, the guy I bought it from said to only use the sisal twine as he heard it works better. in the 430's In my area, sisal is 2x+ the cost of the PP twine. I guess I'm curious as to what everyone's thoughts are on this? Is there a major departure between the two where the baler would need MAJOR adjustments? I'd like to try the PP, but I don't want to get into a situation where I'm buying both types because the PP did't work. Anyone running an IH 430 All Twine with PP and having good luck? Also seems like the PP would be a stronger twine which would be nice.
Thanks,
LM
