John Deere made two different bill hooks. One for sisal and the other was called all twine which could use plastic. On my 24t we switched to 7200 many years ago and it only misses when changing balls of twine. Check the hay dogs and springs to make sure they are good and the tucker finger adjustments like mentioned below. Finger Lakes Equipment in New York makes a tucker finger update kit that uses ball joints on the linkage and if you bale a good bit of hay it might be worth checking into. Make sure the twine knife is sharp and the wiper arm is set to wipe nice and tight. On the newer wiper arms that is adjustable but on the older parts you need to bend the arm. Deere had a tool to help with that. Check bill hook for wear and grooves. You might have one big problem or several small adjustments. The 24t manual gives very detailed directions on knotter adjustment. I also added plunger extensions to my 24t. Deere recommended them for straw and loose springy crops. They just push the slice of hay a little further into the baler so when it ties there is less spring back pressure on the knot. Tom

I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
