1. The twine was not inserted in the twine retainer
as the distance between the needle and the twine

for the twine collection – correct the position of the
twine carrier, replace worn carrier pin.
1. Too large a gap between the strripping comb on
the blade lever and the back of the knotter hook –
position the blade lever by hitting lightly with a
