Bag Installation
Enclosed in each box of bags is an instruction
sheet with pictures to help you properly install
the bag on your bagger. Please take time to
understand the best method of bag installation.
The bag should be placed on the machine with
the bag logo in an area between 1 and 3 o’clock.
Watch the stretch indicators on the bag. The
bag is overfilled when the stretch indicator ex-
ceeds the manufacturer’s recommendations.
Correcting Bag Stretch
Ground To Ground Method Of Checking
Tie weights (hex nuts) approximately 1/4 lb to
one end of a string and one weight (hex nut)
approximately 1/8 lb to the opposite end of the
string. The distance between the nuts need to
be 29 feet 6 inches for a 14 foot bag or 26 feet 6
inches for the 12 foot bag.
Straddle the string over the bag approximately
15 feet away from the bagger.
While bagging, when the single nut touches the
ground, increase the anchor pressure and/or
brake pressure. If the nut comes off the ground
more than 3 inches, reduce the anchor pressure
and/or brake pressure.
NOTE: Use this procedure only as a visual aid.
Remember, measuring the stretch bars on the
bag and maintaining appropriate stretch dimen-
sion is important. Keep the bag stretch indica-
tors within the manufacturer’s specifications.
You can control the stretch in the bag by either
letting out the anchor or pulling it in.
Anchor Out: The further out the anchors ex-
tend, the more pressure will be exerted, mean-
ing the bag will have higher compaction. Watch
the anchor gauge so you will know how much
cable is out. This will cause the stretch bars on
the bag to lengthen. You can let more cable out
b
y using the anchor float switch on the right side
console. Do not use the anchor cable in/out
switch to let the anchor cable out while bagging,
this can create slack in the anchor cables
Anchor In: By pulling the anchors back toward
the tunnel you will lessen the amount of pres-
sure and cause the stretch bars to become
smaller. Use the anchor cable in switch on the
right side console to pull the anchors in. Watch
the anchor pressure on the System Monitor dis-
play and keep it in the correct range.
