Abstract
A crop baler having a bank of knotters employs a cross flow blower to produce a full width stream of air transversely across the line of knotters to keep them free of debris and residue. The blower is hingedly mounted on an enclosure over the knotters for selective movement between a lowered operating position and a raised access position.
