SPEED-SETTING OF THE WRAPPING ARM.
8.1
Start the tractor and let it run at approx. 1000 revolutions per minute. Lift the machine clear of the
ground. The oil flow to the wrap arm and lower Rollers is adjusted by two wheels which are situated
at the front of the machines adjustment valve block. (See A-B Fig. 13-1)
8.2
The Wheel (See B Fig. 13-1) to the right is used to adjust speed of the wrapping arm.
8.3
Adjust the wrapping arm speed to approx. 22 revolutions per minute. (Just below three seconds per
revolution.) The adjustment is carried out by turning the wheel on the control valve. Turning
clockwise INCREASES
the speed and turning
counterclockwise REDUCES
the speed.
It is recommended not to wrap with speeds higher than 22 revolutions per minute, because then the
plastic film will "catch" more air, and this air do may not be able to evacuate from the bale. The
result is bad fodder.
NOTE: Max. allowed wrapping arm speed is 27 revolutions per minute.
REMEMBER!
Increased speed of tractor engine does not increase the wrapping speed, it only increases
the oil flow into the system and by that also the temperature in the hydraulic system.
