Round Baler
7.7 PREPARING THE FIELD FOR WORK
Follow these guidelines to achieve the maximum collection and baling performance with various products:
7.7.1 CONDITIONING
Silage must be conditioned to achieve equal moisture of stalks and leaves.
Long and hard materials shall be conditioned to produce broken stalks, which will reduce their rolling resistance
when baling, since long stalks are prone to enter between the baling belts.
Corn stalks should be ground for better baling and optimum bale density. Do not grind them too finely!
7.7.2 PRODUCT ROWS
It is critical to properly form the product in rows to achieve optimum baling.
Once the product has been shredded and properly dried, form rows of it in the field.
You can form single or double rows with the total
width equal to the pickup service width to maximise
the baler performance.
When forming double rows, the rows must be adjacent
one to another and cannot overlap each other.
The width of single rows can be 0.50÷0.60 m, which
will require driving in a zig-zag pattern to feed the baler
at the entire pickup service width and form uniformly
rolled bales.
Follow the indications of the F Bus control terminal
when zigzagging.
