Another thing to check while running and feeding material,is to stop feeding, manually trip it and then shut machine off and examine the knot . It should be gripped fully in bill and the twine should be cut off cleanly. If that twine is not cut completely and cleanly the knot will pull apart either part way or all the way when the incoming material push's the bale which in turn pulls the knot off the bill. This is the number one reason for poor knotter performance on an IH baler with the McCormick knotter which that baler has. Now if it happens to have the all twine knotter,(which is still a McCormick style) a cam operates on the back side of head which moves the knife over to cut the twine after knot is formed.The bale still pulls knot off bill hook. The Deering style knotter cut both twines, and strip knot off hook but that is a whole different knotter. Far as hook being later or earlier than other, the only thing that controls that is wear on driven side of gear that drives bill. Disk timing is adjustable on these due to tapered shaft on disk drive gear. This in turn affects knife timing along with the washers behind the knife. Could go on forever as it is a multitude of adjustments to getting a knot.
