Tanco Autowrap Ltd congratulates you on your choice of the TANCO AUTOWRAP VariAuto bale wrapping machine. We are certain you will be satised with the machine, and that you will
have the pleasure of your investment for many years.
The TANCO AUTOWRAP bale wrapping machine has more features than any other bale wrapping machine available.
This machine is hydraulically driven by the tractor’s hydraulic system and is controlled from the tractor cab by an automatic control unit. The machine can either be mounted to three
point linkage, front mounted with quick-couplers to the tractors front loader or on a wheel loader. Then it’s possible to stack the bales upon each other. The wrapped bale can be either
dropped conventionally to the ground or with the tting of an optional‘End Tip’ the bale can be dropped on its end.
TANCO VariAuto is designed to wrap bales of grass, hay or straw, with nominal diameter of 1.1 - 1.5m, and weights up to (1200kg).
This manual explains how TANCO AUTOWRAP VariAuto S is setup, attached to tractor, used and how it works, and shall together with the spare part’s list be a reference for maintenance
and troubleshooting. So take good care of this book; it is a part of the machine.
Read carefully through this manual, and especially the safety instructions, before starting the machine. Follow the instructions thoroughly, if problems should occur, check the
troubleshooting guide to try to establish the problem. Ask your dealer for advice before you attempt anything that may make the problem worse.

4. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Tanco Autowrap Ltd does not take responsibility for damages that may occur to machine, persons or other equipment, because of the machine NOT being used as described in this manual,
or because of the safety precautions NOT being followed.
4.1. Safety Arm Stop
The Tanco Autowrap VariAuto Range is equipped with a safety arm stop on the wrapping arm. This device stops all functions momentarily, but is per denition not an emergency stop,
because it does not shut down the inputs.
4.2. Safety Equipment
Before using the machine, make sure that all guards and covers are securely tted. The machine must not be operated if a function does not work as described later in this manual.
4.3. Become Familiar with the Operations of the Machine
If you are unsure how to operate the machine properly, either use of or maintenance to your Tanco autowrap, please contact your Tanco autowrap dealer.
4.4. Adjustments / Maintenance
Turn o the tractor and discharge the oil pressure before performing any adjustment or maintenance on the machine. Remember that a well maintained machine is a safe machine.
IMPORTANT!
Always make sure nobody is in the hazard area of the wrapping arm when the machine is in-use.
The machine must not be operated by persons who does not know how to safely operate the machine, or by any person under the age of 16 years.
4.5. Dangerous Areas
Tanco Autowrap Ltd. has given the safety of the operator the highest priority, but it is still impossible to secure oneself of every danger area on the machine. Therefore we have highlighted
below some of the dangers that can occur when using the VariAuto Tanco Autowrap Bale Wrapper.

4. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
- Impact of the Wrapping Arm
During the wrapping process the arm rotates with a speed of 30-32 revolutions per minute around the bale. A lm dispenser unit with plastic roll is mounted on the wrap arm of the machine.
The speed of this can seriously injure a person if one enters the working area of the wrapping arm. To reduce this danger we have mounted an emergency stop device on the wrapping
arm; this stops all movement when something comes in the way of it. It is very important that this protection always works and that it should not under any circumstances be disconnected.
- Squeeze Danger Between the Main Frame & Wrapping Arm
As earlier explained, we have a wrapping arm with a Dispenser and a plastic roll. During every revolution the wrapping arm passes the main frame. Here there may occur a squeeze danger
if a person stands to close to the main frame when the wrapping arm passes. The distance between the main frame and the wrapping arm is not large enough to give place for a person.
There can also be a squeeze danger between the prestretcher and the bottom of the frame.
- Squeeze Danger Between the Stationary Arm & Wrapping Arm
During the main wrapping process the wrapping arm moves around a stationary arm. Every time the wrapping arm passes the stationary arm
there is a squeeze danger that can be dangerous for the ngers. The distance between the stationary and the wrapping arm is between
25-40 mm. (See Fig. 4.).
- Squeeze Danger between the Rollers and the Main Frame
During the wrapping process the bale rotates on two rollers. When the rollers are in motion there is a danger of being squeezed.
- Squeeze Danger between Roller Arms and Main Frame (Inwards)
When loading a new bale, the roller arms move towards the main frame, Beware of the danger. Keep clear of this area.
- Squeeze Danger between Roller Arms and Main Frame (Outwards)
When loading or unloading a new bale, the roller arms move outwards. Beware of the danger. Keep clear of this area.

4. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
- Squeeze Danger Caused by Plastic Automation
At the end of the wrapping process the plastic is cut and held tight until the start of the next wrapping process. When the cutter arm moves down to lock the plastic, there can occur a
squeeze danger between the cutter arm and the cutter holder. The cutter blade that cuts the plastic is very sharp; ensure to keep hands away from the cutter. Fig. 4.1
4.6. Three Point Linkage
When the machine is mounted on the three point linkage, make sure that the lifting arms are tightened up so there is no sideways movement.
4.7. Front Mounting
If the machine is mounted on a front loader there must be a counterweight tted to the three point linkage. It must be large enough
to give the tractor good stability. Connecting heavy working implements often has an overall negative eect on the tractor’s driving
and braking capacity.
4.8. Transporting
When transporting on a public road there are certain safety measures that must be taken:
- Ensure the machine is in the transport position.
- Ensure the squeeze arm is fully closed.
- Ensure that the wrapping arm is not parked overhanging the sides of the machine.
- Ensure that the lights are connected and functioning correctly.
- The machine is wide even in transport position, be aware of this especially on narrow roads.

5.7. For Best Wrapping Results
5.1. Bale Wrapping Principles
The advantages of round bale silage are many, and include fewer feed units, a exible harvesting system, large capacity and the possibility of selling feed units.
In principle, the same fermentation processes occur whether the fodder is placed in a silo or pressed into bales and packed in plastic, i.e. lactic acid fermentation in anaerobic conditions.
The oxygen in the bale must be exhausted before fermentation begins.
The grass should be dried to approximately 30-40% solid content. The solid content can be determined by twisting the grass by hand. If drops of liquid are forced out of the grass, the
solid content is less than 25%. Low solid content (wet grass) can lead to increased butyric acid fermentation if preservatives are not added to the grass. If the solid content is too high,
(over 50%), normal fermentation will not take place and there will be enough oxygen in the bale to produce mould fungus.
5.2. The Baler
It is vital that the baler produces compact, well-formed bales, as misshapen bales can be dicult to wrap. Wrapping will also often take longer, thereby increasing the amount of plastic
used.
5.3. Dicult Bales
When a misshapen bale is wrapped, it will have a tendency to move outwards or inwards on the roller. If the bale begins to move outwards, the machine must be lifted slightly at the rear
edge to get the bale to rest against the support roller on the main frame. It can therefore be useful to use a hydraulic top link to make this adjustment easier.
If the bale to be wrapped is conical the sharp end should be pointed at the tractor. This will prevent the bale moving backwards on the rollers during wrapping. If the bale is lying on a
slope it must be picked up from the lower side. A hydraulic top link will again be advantageous.
5.4. Types of Plastic
A good type of plastic with good adhesive properties, and which is recommended for bale wrapping, must be used. The thickness of the plastic foil should be at least 25 µ. (25/1,000 mm).
In order that the plastic tightens suciently around the bale, it is stretched before being wrapped, so it is somewhat thinner when it is put on the bale. With short-term storage (up to
eight weeks) it is recommended that bales have a minimum of four layers of plastic at the thinnest points, with at least 52-53% overlap.

Tanco Autowrap - VariAuto
Operator’s Manual
10
5. BALE WRAPPING
For long-term storage, or when the grass is wet when it is wrapped, the bale should have 90-100 µ plastic (six layers) and the same amount of overlap. If thinner plastic is used, more
layers should be applied. If it is very hot the plastic will be stretched further, and more layers should be applied. It is better to have slightly too much than too little plastic on the bale.
From experience, light colored plastic absorbs less heat, and this tends to improve feed quality.
5.5. Storage Location
Care should be taken in nding a suitable location for the storage of bales. The storage location should preferably be prepared before the bales are laid out. An elevation close to well
drained roads is recommended. If the wrapped bales are simply placed on stubble there is a danger of the plastic being pierced. A tarpaulin or a thin layer of sand should therefore be laid
where the bales are to be stored over the winter.
Bales should be stored in the shade if possible. This reduces the danger of air leakage in the bales. A bale which is stored in sunlight will undergo uctuating temperatures and therefore
“pumps in” a great deal of air in comparison to a bale stored in the shade. According to“Teknik for Lantbruket” [Technology for Agriculture] in Sweden, a bale stored in the shade has only
40% of the air leakage of a bale which is stored in sunlight.
5.6. Stacking / Protection
If bales are hard and well formed, they can be stacked vertically, but loose and misshapen bales with low dry matter should not be stacked higher than one layer, as this could easily cause
deformity and the danger of runo will be increased.
Bales can also be stored on their ends. The plastic coverage is thicker here, providing greater protection against piercing. Bales should be covered with a tarpaulin or a ne-mesh net to
protect against birds and small rodents. If the plastic is pierced, it must be sealed with weatherproof, hard-wearing tape, preferably under the outermost layer of plastic. Ensure that the
hole is adequately sealed.
5.7. For Best Wrapping Results
1. Harvest the grass early.
2. Ensure the grass is dried out to 30-40% solid content. If there is a danger of rain, bale and wrap the grass anyway.
3. Take care not to mix any soil in with the grass.
4. Use a baler that produces even, rm bales. Bales 1.2mtrs in width and with a diameter of 1.2-1.5mtrs are preferred sizes.
5. Wrap the bales as soon after baling as possible; never more than two hours after.
6. Use a good plastic type, applying six layers of plastic. This removes the need to use preservatives.
7. Store bales in the shade to reduce the danger of air leakage.

Be careful! There is a danger of being crushed when working implements are tted and connected. Carry out the tting procedures slowly and carefully, and use separate and approved
lifting equipment to make the work easier. Note the section on safety precautions and pay attention to the various safety decals displayed on dierent parts of the bale wrapper.
6.1.1. Three Point Linkage
The VariAuto range is intended for mounting to the three point linkage, Category 2. Oset to tractors right hand side. Tighten up and lock the lifting arms so there is no sideways
movement.
6.1.2. Hydraulic Top Link
The optional adjustable Hydraulic Top Link is recommended for attaching the machine to the tractor allowing for levelling during loading and ooading of bales. It can also be used to
change the working angle of the machine so it can be tilted upwards at the back for wrapping in hilly areas or when wrapping conical shaped bales.
6.1.3. Front Mounting
This machine can be equipped with attachment brackets for front loader or wheel loader mounting.
(Talk to your dealer for information regarding the mounting brackets available).
When front-mounted there must be a large enough counterweight tted to the three point linkage, this is to secure the tractors stability.

6. MACHINE SETUP
VariAuto Control Box6.2. Expert Control Unit
The EH control units consist of the emergency stop button, a control cable, a fuse and a battery cable. The control unit should be
attached to a suitable place in the tractor cab using the suction pad provided.
The Remote Control Unit is not Shock Proof, make sure that is fastened to a soft pad that secures a non-vibratting foundation.
Electrical Connection
The electric supply for the machine’s remote control and electro-hydraulic components must come directly from the tractors’
12 volt battery.
The electric wires from the battery must have an area measurement of min. 2,5 mm2. Connection to other contacts on the tractor
can cause risk of malfunction and is not recommended.
Note:
Brown leader goes to the Battery’s Possitive Pole
Blue leader goes to the Battery’s Negative Pole
6.3. VariAuto Hydraulic Connection
The hydraulic hoses between machine and tractor are equipped with 1/2”ISO Male Quick-Couplers. Ensure the oil pressure has been
discharged before you connect the oil hoses using the tractor’s hydraulic lever.
To make sure that the bale wrapper works properly, the tractors’oil pressure has to be at least 180 bar. The oil ow should be 15 - 25 liters per minute. The return pressure on the return
must be as low as possible, and not exceed 10 bar. This should be measured with a gauge. It is recommended to use one single-working hydraulic outlet and arrange a free return circuit
to the oil tank.
If you are unsure of what oil pressure the tractor gives, or what oil pressure the bale wrapper receives, please contact your machinery dealer. Generally all tractors have got some counter-
pressure in their hydraulic return systems. Some tractors have more than others.
Note:
The Hose with the Red Cap shall be connected to pressure ‘P’ and Hose with Blue Cap to the return ‘T’.
The Hydraulic free return is important to ensure that the parking brake on the wrapping arms is not released during transport by pressure building up in the return line.
When the return coupling is connected to a free return this pressure is released. If it is connected through the tractor spool valve the oil cannot escape.

6. MACHINE SETUP
6.3.1. Open & Closed Center Hydraulics
The VariAuto hydraulic system can be set up for tractors with Open Closed Center or Load Sensing (LS) Hydraulic Systems.
6.3.2. Open Centre Hydraulics
Most tractors have a hydraulic system that gives a continuous output which ows through the valve on the machine and back to the tractor when no function is operating (Open center).
Note: The TANCO VariAuto Models are set-up for open centre on leaving the factory.
6.3.3. Close Centre Hydraulics
Some tractors (John Deere) have a hydraulic system that require the valve on the machine
to allow no ow when no function is operating (Closed Center). Fully closing the
valve (Valve 2) on the side of the block changes it to Closed Centre. (See Fig. 6.1)
6.3.4. Load Sensing Hydraulics
Many modern tractors have highly ecient Load Sensing Hydraulic Systems.
This system supplies only the volume of oil required by the machine for each
function. When the machine is idle, it goes into a stand by mode, where no oil
is pumped. An additional kit is required for Load Sensing.
For LS Operation the valve on the side of the block is fully closed.

6.4. Emergency Stop
This machine is equipped with a safety guards on the Wrapping Arms,
and its operation must be tested before work itself is started.
The Emergency Stop is to prevent the Wrapping Arm from damaging
people and objects, when the machine is started and during the
wrapping process. It consists of safety arms that run in front of the
lm dispensers. When tripped they activate an electric switch, which
gives a signal to the control box to activate the emergency stop.
When testing this function, start the Wrapping Arm, hold out an arm or any obstacle.
The wrapping arm shall now stop before it hits the arm. Great care must be taken
when testing this function.
To restart the machine the obstacle must be removed
and the arm must be returned to its original position. The Auto Switch on the control
box must be activated again. The wrapping may start again.
IMPORTANT!
GIVEN THE VELOCITY AND MOMENTUM OF THE ARM IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO STOP THE WRAP ARM
IMMEDIATELY. THE EMERGENCY STOP ARM IS PROVIDED TO HELP REDUCE THE RISK OF SERIOUS
INJURY AND GREAT CARE MUST BE TAKEN WHEN OPERATING THIS MACHINE.

7.2. Operation
Operation in Automatic mode
The controller is generally used in automatic mode for‘one touch wrapping’. Note the controller counts in steps of 2, because for each revolution of the wrapping arm two wraps of lm
are applied.
1. ‘A’ on the centre of the display indicates that the controller is set in Automatic mode. If not, press (L6) to select.
2. With the rollers in the open position (step 5), bring the machine up to the bale.
3. Press (R5) to move the rollers to the closed position.
4. Press (R6)switch to commence the automatic wrapping cycle. The wrap arm will rst unfold to the straight position. It will then complete the target number of wraps, on the last half
revolution the wrap arm will return to the folded position, come to a stop after passing the cutter and reverse to the centre.
5. Press (L5) switch to move the rollers to the open position to unload the bale.
Manually Interrupting an Automatic Wrapping Cycle
Press (R1) to bring the wrapper to a controlled stop. Pressing (R3) will continue the Auto-Wrap cycle from where it stopped.
For safety reasons; if it is necessary to work on the machine (e.g. in the event of a lm break or the lm running out), then it is strongly recommended that you then switch the con-
troller o via the red stop button and disengage the machine power source. Pressing (R3) after switching the controller back on will resume the auto-wrap cycle from where it stopped.
Unless it is an emergency situation, do not bring the machine to a stop by pressing the red stop button as this will impose unnecessary strain on the machine.
Manual options in Automatic mode
With the controller in automatic mode, the following manual functions are possible.
- Slow Wrap (L3): This button will rotate the wrap arm at slow speed (not during an automatic wrapping sequence).
- Fast Wrap (R3): This button will rotate the wrap arm at normal fast speed. This button will also resume an automatic wrapping cycle if interrupted.
- Reverse Wrap Arm (L4): This button will rotate the wrap arm in reverse at slow speed (not during an automatic wrapping sequence).
- Pause Bale Rotation (R5): Holding down this button during an automatic wrapping sequence will stop the bale rotating and so will add more lm to a particular part of the bale. Release
the button when sucient additional lm has been applied.
- ADD 1 WRAP (L1): Each time you press this button an additional wrap will be put on the current bale if the wrapping sequence is in progress or onto the next bale if the automatic cycle
has not yet been started. You can add as many wraps as required.
