The hydraulic and spring pressure is now released allowing the operator to clear any
blockage inside the chamber or carry out specific maintenance operations.
In order to grease the bottom two tension arm rollers the tailgate should be closed
completely before applying the tailgate lock. The lower roller grease points are now
accessible through slots in the chamber walls, two on either side.
To release the tension arm lock, once work has been completed inside the chamber,
the lock lever ‘
B
’ should be returned to the working position, before opening the tailgate
fully to release the stop and then closing the chamber again. The belts are now re-
tensioned and the machine can resume as normal.
10.13 Spare film holders & door latch safety
The machine can hold up to 12 rolls of spare film along with 1 more in each of the two
dispensers. The spare rolls are stored at each side of the machine, behind the front
panels. To open the primary latch (A) on the door panels, a 13 mm spanner or flat blade
screwdriver will be required. The secondary latch (B) is opened by pushing it inwards
to release the panel.
To store film rolls carefully, pull down film holders and slide the film roll core onto the
film holder. Push the film rolls back into an upright position. The film holders are
secured by a linch-pin which must be removed and replaced after use.

10.14 Brakes overview
The machine comes with either hydraulic or air brakes. The machine is fitted with a
hand brake which must be applied when the machine is detached from the tractor. This
also serves as a ‘break-away’ brake, when the actuation cord is connected to the
tractor. Always obey local road regulations!
WARNING: Beware of falling stored objects behind door panels
Beware of falling plastic film rolls and other stored objects when opening
door panels, especially when the machine is not on level ground!
