Well, I went out and strung it just like you guys said. Then turned the spike wheel until the knotters tripped, then I went around front and turned the flywheel.
The needles came up (with the twine) and then when they reached the top, something grabbed the twine, and the needles went back down, I then walked around back and the garbage pieces of twine had been cut, but there was like one thin strand left on each one, and when I just barely tugged on them, it broke and they came off. Sooo, as far as I can tell everything is OK! Now I am working on replacing the springs on the hay holders underneath/behind the knotter assembly.
