11.0 SPECIAL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE TWIN MACHINES
The Auto Wrap 1510/1514 can, as described earlier, also be supplied with a double set of
wrapping arms, film stretchers and cutters. This significantly increases the machine's capacity.
This machine is essentially the same as a standard machine, apart from two film dispensers
and two cut and start units. The two cut and starts are mounted on a hinged cutter beam on
each side of the machine.
11.1 PREPARATION
Before the machine can be used, the wrapping arm must be "folded out" and the cutter beams
placed in their operating positions. See fig 2-8 and fig 11-1 for more detailed descriptions.
ADJUSTING THE CUTTER ARM.
The height of the cutters can be adjusted if, for example, the pinching arm does not hold the film
properly. Loosen the lock nuts and adjust the cutter arm to the required height. Tighten the lock
nut again. (See fig. 11-12.)
11.2 WRAPPING
Before the TWIN machines load up the bale, the wrapping arm must be positioned
perpendicular to the machine (i.e. the stop position). Position the wrap arm correctly in Manual
mode pressing and holing the wrap slow button. Then fix both the film ends securely in the
cutters. (See sections 6.4 and 6.5.)
When adjusting the overlap, (chapter 9.0), the roller speed is set to approx. 52-53% overlap
between the two pre-stretchers. This means that the rollers must rotate twice as fast as on a
standard machine.
When the wrapping sequence is completed and the wrapping arm has stopped, the wrapping
arm will not be parallel with the bearer rollers. As soon as the cutters have closed, the wrapping
arm will automatically reverse back to the start position which is at right angles to the Tower.
When the wrapping sequence is over the wrapping arm will be positioning a bit diagonal to the
rollers. When the bale is unloaded by pushing
ROLLERS OUT,
the wrapping arm will
automatically return to an 90° angle to the tower.
NB !
AUTO WRAP 1510 / 1514 TWIN is supplied for use with 750 mm pre-stretchers. However
for best result with smaller square bales use 500 mm film and supplied film adaptors.
IMPORTANT! Before the machine is transported on public roads the wrapping arms and cutters
must be fixed in the transport-position.
