Shaftsbury, Vermont (SW VT) | Just from my experience, even if you have that baler timed correctly---make sure the plunger safety catch ( the dog that comes out every time the needles leave home) is free to move, and has a good, not rusty spring on it. I always recommend that you replace that spring every year or two, and just keep the old one around for a clutch return spring or whatever. It's cheap insurance, 4 or 5 dollars that can save you several hundred. Often when the needles get it, the carrier gets tweaked, too. Just my two cents worth. Oliver Durand |
