So I have a Hesston 4650 and it was working just fine. Then I looked back to see the last five bales all spread out. They only had one string on them. I think many balers are set up like this one. The knotters are mounted on the shaft that runs through them and are kept in place by a pin through the knotter and a lug on the top of the bale chamber. When I got this baler those pins were held in place with what I call hair pins, look like the letter R. One of those came out letting the pin wiggle out and then knotter flipped forward when the shaft turned. Ruined the cam gear and broke the striper arm. If I can find some good parts to fix it, I'm going to use good ole cotter pins this time. Anyone know of a parts baler 4650 or Case 8550? Anyone have this happen to yours? I am posting this so that you will check yours next time you bale so it won't happen to you. I have learned so much from this site!!

Jon's Allis has a small front loader and though it doesn't carry much, it serves his needs. It was the hard starting and low power that made him think it was time to replace the old girl. Jon called me to help him discover why his tractor wouldn't start
