both pieces of twine come out of the twine chute, then under the tensioner on the outside wall of the twine chunte, through the slack springs, down through the insulator, then one string goes to the near side needle, and the other goes through the far side insulator, then threw the far side needle. Once they come out of the needles, tie them off to the round tubing at the bottom of the bailer.
Hope that helps!

To time a No. 3 Massey Ferguson square baler, first ensure the machine is properly set up and connected to the tractor. Locate the timing marks on the baler's flywheel and the knotter mechanism. Rotate the flywheel until the timing marks align, then adjust the knotter's drive mechanism to ensure it engages at the correct point in the cycle. Finally, check the operation by running the baler and observing the knotting action to confirm proper timing.
To determine the year of a Massey Ferguson 124 baler, you can check the serial number, which is typically located on a plate affixed to the frame. The serial number can provide specific information about the production year when cross-referenced with Massey Ferguson's production records. Additionally, consulting the owner's manual or contacting a Massey Ferguson dealer can provide assistance in identifying the year based on the model's features and specifications.

To set the timing on a Massey Ferguson 124 baler, first, ensure the baler is disengaged and the tractor is off. Locate the timing marks on the main drive sprocket and the knotter drive. Adjust the knotter timing by loosening the set screws and rotating the knotter drive until the marks align correctly, typically at the point where the plunger reaches the end of its stroke. Finally, re-tighten the screws and verify the timing by testing the baler's operation.
To tighten the belts on a Massey Ferguson 450 round baler, first ensure the baler is turned off and safely parked. Locate the tension adjustment bolts, typically found on the idler pulleys or the main frame, and use a wrench to turn them clockwise to increase belt tension. Check the belt alignment and tension by observing the belts while manually rotating the baler, ensuring they sit evenly on the pulleys. Adjust as necessary until the belts are properly tensioned and aligned.
John Deere, Case IH/Agritrac, New Holland and Massey are the main companies that produce balers, primarily small square, large square, and large round. The large square baler is the most expensive to purchase. SINOBALER is a specialized baler manufacture based in China. Balers manufactured include cardboard baler, textile baler, bottle baler, tyre baler, fiber baler as well as various kinds of vertical balers and horizontal balers.
