Some baler problems going around

JOCCO · Jul 28, 2019

Guy took one to a dealer to get knotters
fixed. $2500 later only to find the
crankshaft and flywheel are bad!!! It's
the brand I can't mention because people
get upset but has flywheel on the side. #2
yesterday a different brand one destroyed
a knotter drive gear and possibly a
knotter. I am mixed up in that disaster.

I'd be curious to know what could have happened that flywheel is bad because both important orifices in flywheel has replaceable bushings. One would think dealer would determine problem with crankshaft long before $2500 was charged on baler but technician probably was the "parts replacer" not diagnostic type.
