Easiest thing to do is call SEVERAL different dealers (and ask your neighbors) if anyone knows of a decent baler man. Most likely he'll be in his 60s. You can fight one of those knotters for years and never get it to work right but the RIGHT baler guy will work on it for about 2-3 hours and it will work like a Sears sewing machine. Once correctly adjusted and timed they will run for years (decades on a small farm) without much more maintenance that sharpening the knives every couple years. You may have 100 - 150 miles of road time with it before you find a guy that really knows what he's doing but once they work they work well.
Don't let dealer give it to some guy who's going to read the manual and adjust it because he's the one available when you brought it in. All you'll be doing is burning through money at $100 an hour with no results.

After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
