Hesston 530 / Case 8420 round baler

[@jrog1543]

I got the same baler. But I'm having trouble figuring out how to tie the twine. I still need to replace the blade in there. Maybe you could make a short video on it. I've read descriptions of how to do it but I guess for this I need to see it done.

It doesn’t really tie the twine. You just wrap it a bunch of times around in a specific spot and that kind of keeps it from unraveling. To get it to cut the twine you need to pull the arm all the way to the port side and let it slam back into the home position, and that will close the blade and cut the twine. If you let the arm swing back slowly, it will likely not cut the twine and will wrap it on the end of the bale and make a mess.
