(10 cm) from each other
[Figure 8] .
Adjust tension until the distance between the lines is
approximately 6-1/2 in. (17 cm)
[Figure 8] (70% initial
film tension).
Bale Loading
Place the frame with the drums along 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.
A worn or poorly lubricated tensioning mechanism
may cause the film to be wrapped too tightly. The
film tensioning level must not exceed 70%.
4 In.
(10 mm)
6-1/2 In.

The width of the film measured at the end of the bale
may not be lower than 400 mm when using 500 mm
film and not lower than 600 mm when using 750 mm
film.
Before operating the equipment:
• Clear the work area of all bystanders, especially
small children and animals.

To load the bales, only use lifting devices with lifting
capacity appropriate to the weight of the rolled
material.
