Way back when, I was baling hay with an old wore out square baler, putting up some square bales for a black fellow. I had borrowed the baler from a friend and he told me to go slow and it would probably work ok, but if I pushed it too much, it would give me problems. So I was taking it easy, trying to get the field baled. The black fellow, and his boys, were hauling the hay, almost as fast as I could bale it. Knotter messed up and I didn't know how to fix it. Black fellow was in his 40's or 50's, and had been around farming all his life. He looked at the mechanism, told me it was, "Whoa out, but he figures he can n i g g e r-rig it", and we can finish the field. Got a tool box out of the truck and in a few minutes he said to try it. I'm not sure what he did, but it worked and we got the field baled.
I took it back to the owner and as far as I know, that was the last time it was used.
