Shiftable lock assemblies for knotter assemblies in baling systems are provided that improve a user's accessibility of the knotter assemblies without the need for tools or by removing any components from the baling system. While in the locked position, the shiftable lock assemblies can keep the knotting mechanisms in the operating position; however, once easily moved into the unlocked position, the knotting mechanisms may be simply rotated to a passive position. Consequently, due to the shiftable lock assemblies of the present disclosure, routine maintenance on the knotter assemblies may be significantly easier to carry out.
