roller on the tractor wrapping machine axis placing the white roller on the right side. Load the bale
through the white roller. Adjust the bale placement in relation to the side wheels. Place the roller
catch so that the centers of the rollers and the bale were at the same height.
Pull the film at first bale as far as possible from the feeder and attach it using the string
binding the bale. Smoothly turn on the hydraulic motor of the wrapping machine. Maintain the
engine revolutions at 1500 RPM while wrapping. Wrap at least 4 layers of film so that each of them
is overlapped in 50%.
We advise to finish the wrapping after about 24 revolutions of the frame while using 1' 8"
film or 16 revolutions while using 2' 6" film. A properly wrapped bale has four layers of the
wrapping film around it.
NOTE!
Before turning on the rotary frame drive, make sure that there are no
bystanders in the working area.
Maintaining the Rolls in good condition, especially their edges, minimizes the risk of the
film breaking while wrapping.
NOTE!
Do not wrap bales during precipitation.
If the bale is wrapped too tightly, halt the wrapping process. Establish the cause of excessive
film tension. Set the proper film tension. Resume the wrapping process.
Use the bales within 12 months from their wrapping date.
8.5. Unloading the wrapped bale
Stop the rotary frame placing the drum axes perpendicular to the tractor-machine axis with
the white roller in the rear. By pulling the handle release the locking pin and unlock the lower frame
(to unlock the lower frame, the operator must use the pin release handle which is available as a part
of the optional equipment).
Using the three point hitch, lift the wrapping machine causing the tilting of the lower frame
and unload the bale at the same time tightening the film.
Lower the wrapping machine to its working position and lock the frame. Rotate the rotary
frame with the drums to its initial position, as during the first loading (white roller on the right). Do
not cut the film. Load another bale on the wrapping machine with the film tightened. Start the
wrapping process.
8.5.1. Bale vertical positioning system – additional equipment
The bale vertical positioning system allows to place the rolled bale vertically during the
unloading, minimizing the risk of damaging the wrapping film. The vertical positioning system
should be attached to the tilting frame as shown on the Fig. 12.
