Hello all,
We have recently been trying to get a JD 342 working that has been laying in a shed for 20+ years. Most things seem to be going well, however she can be quite temperamental when it comes to tying knots. It will tie them most of the time but every now and then it will get a knot trapped in the billhook causing the twine to snap. To me it looks like there is a long tail left after the knot that is getting wrapped around the billhook and tied into the knot, but i cant tell what is causing the long tail.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
