Ibex TX31 Mini Round Baler with Net Wrap - Operator’s Manual 11
4 Operation
The purpose of this section is to instruct you on the safe and optimal use of your TX31 baler. Pictures are
included for illustrative purposes but may not match your machine exactly. Some pictures show protective
covers removed for purposes of clarity. DO NOT attempt to operate the machine while the protective
covers are removed.
Every operator of the implement, whether it is you or someone else, must be completely familiar with this
section before attempting to use it.
4.1 Operational Adjustments
4.1.1 Adjusting Net Roll Tension
The amount of tension placed on the roll of net wrap is crucial to proper functioning of the wrapping
mechanism. If the tension is too light, the net will not be tightly drawn, which often results in poor cutting. If
it is too heavy, the roller may not be strong enough to pull and unravel the net and/or the bale may not be
able to grip the net after it is fed down into the chamber. Follow the guidelines below to set the proper
tension.
•
Tension is adjusted by the placement of two tension springs (Figure 26, A) among several position
holes (B). Holes closer to the front of the machine extend the spring and provide greater tension, and
vice versa.
• A new roll of netting will require a lower tension setting (a hole closer to the rear of the machine) than
a partially used roll. The tension must be adjusted periodically as the roll diameter decreases.
• The larger the diameter and the heavier the roll, the lower the tension should be. Springs may need to
be disengaged completely for a new extra large roll of net to unravel properly.
•
Optimal positioning of the tension springs will vary depending on several factors, including:
►
Roll size & weight
►
Bale density
►
Type of baled crop
►
Moisture content of baled crop
►
PTO speed used
►
Environmental conditions
• In humid conditions, talc powder dry lubricant can be applied to the edge of the roll to reduce tension,
which will ensure the roll feeds net consistently and the net is cut consistently (Figure 27).
