WARNING! – Intake and baling of pressing material not mentioned!
Effect: Damage to the machine
Collecting and baling materials that are not cited here is permitted only in agreement with the
manufacturer. The basic requirements in any case are swath form loading of the crops and
automatic intake by the Pick-up as it passes over them.
