I always try a baler with no material in chamber. Tying the twine to the rear a good long ways, using a spring to hold them or a rubber tie down works good. Then I turn the flywheel by hand, tripping bale length device, watching where needles enter chamber, just behind tips of plunger, watch needles over the top of disc, how far they travel before reversing, watching the tucker fingers bring twine to bill hook, twine knife cutting , whatjamcallit, stripping knot from bill hook and any other things I forgot to mention.
This will get you in the ball park to start making adjustments during actual baling. Twine tension and don't over look compaction of the bale. That top twine has to slide, move between the bale on every stroke and a extremely dense bale makes it tough for twine disc to maintain a good hold on twine once it starts to move.
I am so glad I don't have to work on balers any more. Haven't touched one for maybe 25 years and they were the IH ones with a different knotter than you have.
And, correct stroke speed is important. 6o is a good number of strokes per minute. Never liked the idea of advertised 75 on newer balers. Lot of slam bang.
