Mounting of the Machine
Be careful! There is a danger of being crushed when working implements are fitted and
connected. Carry out the fitting 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 different parts of the bale wrapper.
Three Point Linkage
TANCO AUTOWRAP 1300 range is intended for rear mounting to the three point linkage,
Category 2. When attached to three point linkage, make sure the machine is level
across the tractor. Tighten up and lock the lifting arms so there is no sideways movement.
Top Link
Adjust the top link of the tractor so that the machine is level with the ground. It is
recommended to use a hydraulic top link, as this makes it easy to adjust the angle of the machine.
During the wrapping process it is recommended to tilt the machine towards the tractor, as this
will prevent the bale from falling off the rollers. (See Fig. 6.1).
Front Mounting
This machine can be equipped with attachment brackets for front loader or wheel loader.
(Talk to your dealer for information regarding the mounting brackets available).
When front-mounted there must be a large enough counterweight fitted to the three point linkage, this is to secure the tractors stability.
