Recommended Operating Procedure 

 

WARNING !  

Always switch engine off and remove ignition key  
before installing or changing plastic rolls, doing maintenance or 
climbing on the wrapper. 

 

We suggest the following method  
of operating the Stretch-O-Matic

®

 models 7500 & 8400 

 

Manual and automatic models first steps 

 Park the wrapper where you want the end of the row, facing in the right way. 

 Lower the wrapper to the ground using the draw pole jack. Remove the jack.  

  If your wrapper has hydraulic front wheel, use the up/down lever to lower the machine.  

Be certain that the forward-backward lever is in the «

FLOATING POSITION

» 

before starting to wrap bales. 

 Attach the chain from the folding roller table to the bale pusher with the bale pusher in 

the open position. 

 Stop the motor before installing plastic rolls.  Open security guards, install plastic rolls 

according  to  diagram  on  page  9  in  this  manual.    Properly  close  the  security  guards 
before starting the engine. 

 Remove the transport lock bar. 

 Open the steering lock valve. 

 

Manual model

 

(Automatic model see next page)

 

 

Use the bale pusher valve to close bale pusher, lowering roller table. 

 

Install roll of plastic according to 

Plastic installation diagram

 on page 9. 

 

Open bale pusher and place the first guide bale on the table.  Push this bale through 
the hoop.  This gives a stable end for the line.  This bale is picked up and placed on 
the wrapper later when the line is well under way. 

 

Next, place a single bagged bale on the wrapper and push it to the hoop to form the 
end seal.  Alternatively a bale of straw or a special plastic cap can be used to form a 
tight end seal.  

 

From the outside, pull out some plastic through the stretcher closest to you and tie it 
to the stabilization bar of the fix hoop.  Push hoop lever forward to apply one and a 
half layer of plastic.  Untie plastic and repeat with the other plastic roll. 

 

As the bale is pushed through the hoop, start the plastic dispenser rotating to apply 
plastic.    Keep  your  plastic  overlapping  six  inches,  this  will  apply  four  layers.    By 
adjusting  the  flow  divider  you  will  control  the  speed  of  the  rotating  hoop,  thus 
controlling how many layers of plastic is applied on the bales.  

 

We recommend an extra layer of plastic on this first joint.  This will compensate for 
the  stress  when  the  first  bale  touches  the  ground.    The  same  recommendation  is 
valid for the last joint of your line.
