Hayliner problems

Seems to be a lot of experience here, so I thought I would see if anyone out there can point me in the right direction. I have a Hayliner 270 (and a manual) and after finally getting it timed (sheared bolts and one broken needle later) and now I am having a knotter problem. One side will hold the twine and cut it and the other side, no cutting. Neither side seems to be making the initial knots. Since I have been unable to find a pictorial story of how the knotters are supposed to work, I am can only guess. I am hoping to get someone to help (as I cannot turn the pto and watch the knotters at the same time) so that I might be able to see what is or is not happening, but there is no guarentee when that will be. I have a baler that I am borrowing, but would prefer to use myown.
Any words of advice or even getting pointed to where I can see pictures of exactly what I am supposed to see is greatly appreciated.

I am told that these have very similar operation to the JD balers, so maybe I can help a little. When you say that one side does not cut, do you actually mean it is not severing the twine or is it that the knot is still hung on the billhook? Either way, if it does not tie a good knot on BOTH sides you most likely would have a problem with the tucker fingers, I think. These lie next to the slots that the needles come up thru. They need to retract fully to home position and then move forward and push the needle twine into the twine disk. There is a spring that pulls them back on the JD baler and if this is missing....no knots on both sides. Try that for starters. HTH.

Thanks so much for your quick response, Dave. You hit the nail on the head. Spent all holiday weekend working on hay equipment. My dad came out to help and now he knows way more than he ever thought he should! On Monday we went in to get replacements for worn out bushings and other small things. While there we were able to talk to the baler guru and we determined that the cam was not locked and, therefore, was not rotating to cause the "tucker fingers" to engage. Luckily, the key for the cam was sheared and the shaft was fine. Finally got it working early this morning.
