Hi everyone my case 8455 round baler leaves a fluffy bit in the middle without twine wrapping and is it normal for it to do 3 wraps then cut the twine miss the middle *fluffy bit*and wrap the other side 3 times without putting it under the twine to hold it all together first time using my new purchased round baler also it appears the needle for the twine arms moves fast for the first rotation but slowly comes back to home but does a extra flick when its almost back in home position

Looks like you need more string all over the bale!!
Does it do net, string is so 90s, the time it takes to string a bale:arghh:
Only do 400 rounds a year haha
Has the baler got different pulleys to put the twine around for changing twine feed rates like a RP 12 ? I reckon it wants going on a smaller pulley so it slows the speed of feed :)
Nah 2 pullys the same size for the twine
