New Holland 366 baler knotter tails

[Sas401]

Trying to find out how to lengthen the string tails after the knotter has tied the knot?
Baler works good and does most bales but when making heavy bales (for wrapping) it cuts string too short and knot will come undone when moving bale.

Somebody I know of has a similar problem with a different make. I suspect it is twine tension related rather than cutting too short per se.

More likely the bale tension is too high and the bale expands when it comes out of the chamber and pulls the knot apart, Im not sure reducing the twine tension will work as if its slack it wont sit on the twine disc and tie properly

The other thing to check might be the hay dogs in the chamber.
