You need to picture or describe what the knot looks like before it unties, while it is in the chamber. It could be several things that can cause an incomplete knot to be formed. With out some additional information we really are just guessing on what is wrong. The lower bale tension is just making the knot not have pressure on it as soon. Not really solving anything.
Do you know what twine was used in the baler before you bought it??? IF they ran heavier twine, like 7200, then the billhooks may need adjusting to hold the twine while the knot is tied. DO NOT just blindly adjust anything until you learn what the trouble is you can cause worse trouble than a bad knot, like broken knotters.
Also to sound like someone on here, do you have an operator's manual???? The NH manuals have a very good section on trouble shooting knotter troubles. It has pictures of what different issues will cause the knot to look like.
If you want mail me your phone number and I can try to walk you through it over the phone if you currently have hay down.
