273 hayliner will not tie on inside

273 is not tying like it should. The inside string is coming untied about 1 out of 4 bales. The string is laying on the birdbill about mid way on the tying side and near the inside on the not tying side. I did notice the string was not cut smoothly. Shear a pin in the flywheel when this junk started. We are going crazy.

"The string is laying on the birdbill about mid way on the tying side and near the inside on the not tying side."

That makes no sense to me. A manual would explain the entire process to you, and would have a trouble shooting section.

If it won't hold a knot, it's likely a tention problem on the billhook. The twine knifes need sharpened if it's not cutting the twine cleanly.
 
I have a 273 can't say enough about it. It's great. 1. are you using the right twine for square bales? I didn't for a year still tied good but once in a while i would get finicky. Now i have the thicker twine and it doesn't miss a beat.
Adjustment of the wiper is fairly critical.
When i had problems . I had someone turn the flywheel real slow and trip the tier rod and watch what happens on the good knot side. Compare the two and you will find your problem. You can't beat these knotters they, are bullet proof. Something is just a little out of wack.
Compare both knotters. Don't give up you will find it . Hey you have one working , you can get the other one working again.
Do you have the twine threaded properly , i screwed mine up once and had a heck of a time till i found where it had not been run properly.

first thing to check ---do you have tension on string coming out of twine box .Need both to have same . Dirt gets under there an twine wears grove in them in time.
