Pre-settings for net wrapping:
•
The tension lever (12) must touch and guide the wrapping material roll (1). To do this, the
tension lever (12) must be released,
•
The conical roller (3) must be locked to prevent it from rotating during net wrapping,
.
Pre-settings for chamber film wrapping:
•
The tension lever (12) must not touch the wrapping material roll (1). To do this, the tension
lever (12) must be locked,
•
The conical roller (3) must be released to ensure that it rotates during chamber film
wrapping,

Unwind a section of the wrapping material (11) from the wrapping material roll (1) and guide
it over the deflection roll (2) and under the deflection roll on the cross tube (10).
Place the wrapping material (11) over the conical roller (3).
Place the wrapping material (11) under the spreading roll (4) on the retaining sheet (6).
Using the supplied feed plate (7), push the wrapping material (11) between the retaining
sheet (6) and the synthetic cloth (5).
Ensure that the wrapping material (11) is spread over an area (8) of at least 2 feed strips.
Ensure that the wrapping material (11) projects over the edge of the retaining sheet (6)with
one of the following lengths:
•
For net:
X=170–200 mm
•
For film:
X=230–260 mm

Notes on operation
•
When chamber film wrapping starts, it is necessary to continue collecting crops until the film
is caught by the round bale and the film roll is turning.
•
If possible, for initial operation, use a complete net roll first and tie the round bales with net.
This way provides for previous removal of any sharp edges or paint residues.
•
KRONE recommends not to use chamber film wrapping for straw bales. There is a risk of
condensation forming, resulting in mould.
•
Tie the round bale with the appropriate film tension,
•
KRONE recommends 3.5-4 film layers to ensure optimum chamber film wrapping,
. The dryer the crops, the more film layers will be required.
•
KRONE recommends no fewer than 2.5 net layers for optional net wrapping,
. Otherwise, depending on the quality of the net and crops, the expansion force of
the crops cannot be absorbed by the net.
•
A machine with chamber film wrapping can still tie round bales with net. In doing so, ensure
that the the conical roller and the tension lever are set differently.
