Hit a fence post with NH565 baler resulting in bent axle on pickup wheel. Straightened it out pretty well and placed it back at same adjustment height. Continued baling and found that it would only pick up half of windrow. After inspecting, found the pickup tines were higher on ground on one side than the other. Tried adjusting height of pickup wheel BUT pickup tines are still different distances from ground. Now tines are wearing on pickup bands.

Any suggestions on how to get this thing level?

Thanks!
