Bagging Surface
IMPORTANT: Do not bag on a hillside. Tip-
over or bag roll could result.
Bag up hill rather than down hill. Avoid bagging
on a hillside. The bagger can drift and the bag
may roll.
Surface conditions may affect bagging quality
and ability. Soft ground conditions will act as
a brake and may cause the bagger to sink. A
hard clean and level surface is best to bag on.
By cleaning the area, rodent problems can be
reduced or eliminated.
Bad Weather Bags
NOTE:
Remember to place bags in a location
that feed out can be done when you need the
feed.
Consider the surface conditions during the
seasons when product will be removed from
the bags. If you expect a lot of mud, you may
want to put some bags on a solid surface. Have
enough accessible bags to last until good weath-
er conditions can be expected.
Sealing and Venting
As soon as the bag is filled, seal the finished
end of the bag as outlined with the Master Seal
instructions or using the double knot method.
The sooner oxygen is sealed out, the sooner
the fermentation process can begin. It is very
important to vent the bag after sealing. Refer to
“Venting The Bag” section of this manual. Order
Master seal and reusable vents from your local
Miller Ag-Bag dealer. Refer to the list that fol-
lows for specific part numbers:
Part Number 42.1500272 - 250 Ft. Roll of Mas-
ter Seal
Part Number 42.1500893 - Reusable bag vent
Part Number 42.1500568 - Vent installation tool
Protecting the Bag From Wind Damage
Wind damage can be caused by the wind whip-
ping the loose end of the bag. To prevent dam-
age, the loose bag end needs to be secured by
placing tires or other soft material on the end of
the bag. Wind damage can cause small cracks
and eventually wear a hole that allows air to pen-
etrate, causing feed damage. A tightly secured
bag will add to the life of the bag.
Bag Management and Inspection
Periodic inspection of the bag is essential to
maintain the oxygen free environment inside the
bag. It is recommended that repairs be made
with Ag-Bag mending tape as soon as they are
discovered. Repair tape can be ordered from
your local Miller Ag-Bag dealer using the follow-
ing part numbers:
