The JD 336 was the first baler I bought new in 1975. The first needle I bought for it was $65. Those days are gone. Bob is right. You need a manual and if you could find somebody to help you that has worked on balers. I think all balers have the McCormick style knotter. Something you might want to check is a spring that holds the interlock the prevents the plunger from hitting the needles at the wrong time. It sounds like this spring located on the back right side when you lift the door to the plunger arm is broke or missing. Another thing the baler could be out of time. There is a chain up by the flywheel that might have jumped a few teeth on the gear. We used to keep that chain tight. Thare is also a chain that drives the feed to the plunger. Should check that, but it is not related to this problem. Some guys have tried bending the needles back to shape. I never had any luck. Again get a book thru Johndeerepartsonline, your JD Dealer, or google the phone number. We wore out and rebuilt 2 336s. They are an excellent baler. If you are willing to do the work and bale chamber is not worn thin, I do not see why you can't bring it to new specs. You wou should have a good baler guy look at it. They can also be a money pit.
