In certain conditions, friction between net roll and stainless steel supports may be too low, causing one or more of the following symptoms:
-
Net material loose on bale.
-
Net material less than full width of bale.
-
Net roll continues to turn after cutoff, causing material to wrap on rubber coated feed roll.
-
Net material appears loose on ends of feed rolls or on net roll.
If any of the above conditions occur:
-
Make sure the approved net roll is being used.
-
Increase tension of brake bar.
Increase tension on brake bar by moving gas springs (A) to alternate hole positions.
CAUTION:
Support net wrapping cover while removing and installing gas spring to prevent personal injury.
While relocating gas springs, proceed as follows to prevent binding and make repositioning of springs easier:
|
1.
Remove gas spring from one side.
2.
Reposition other gas spring to desired position.
3.
Reposition first gas spring.
Normal Gas Spring Position
This position corresponds to the lowest brake bar tension.
-
Cover hole position (B).
-
Brake arm hole position (C).
Optional Gas Spring Position
This position increases the brake bar tension.
-
Cover hole position (B).
-
Brake arm hole position (D).
IMPORTANT:
Do not use hole positions (E) and (F) as this will result in a too high net roll brake effect.
