If the swath is too wide
The pressed round bales do not have an accurate shape. Additionally, the round bale is frayed
on the sides. It is very difficult to carry it out of the bale chamber.
Make the swath narrower on the field.
If the swath is too narrow
Even filling of the bale chamber is possible only if the swath is approached alternating from the
left and the right side. Too frequent changes and uneven filling of the bale chamber will produce
barrel-shaped round bales and uneven baling density.
RP000-062
Travel longer sections on the left respectively right side of the swath (1). Observe a length of
roughly
X=20 m
on one side.
Avoid swerving (2).
If the swath is small and flat
Reduce the PTO speed.
Increase the driving speed.
For very wet crops with little structure
If the crops are very wet and have little structure, this may increase slippage of the bale
formation conveyor. This can be reduced by taking the following measures:
Reduce the baling pressure,
For short and brittle straw
Reduce the baling pressure,
Switch off the PTO shaft in the headland.
Start the tying cycle earlier than indicated.
Driving speed
KRONE recommends a driving speed of 5-12 km/h
The driving speed during the work must be adapted to the following conditions:
•
Type of crops
•
Moisture content of crops
•
Swath height
•
Ground conditions
