22 Wrapping with Film Sense 1. Start Wrapping bales as instructed in starting plastic on bales. Pg Turn on Film Sense mode by switching on Film Sense switch, Green light directly above switch should come on. 3. This should now sense when one or more rolls of plastic tear or empty. 4. If this feature does not work, you may have to adjust the length of the sensor wire. STOP ENGINE AND WAIT FOR THE WRAPPER TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BEFORE PROCEED- ING. Sensor wire must be adjusted so that only one layer of plastic is covering the end of the wire while wrapping. If the Wrapper does NOT stop when a plastic roll tears or empties, Shorten the rod slightly by loosening screw and moving wire in, If the wrapper does not RUN in this mode you must lengthen the wire slightly, by loosening screw and moving wire out. Figure 19: Film Sense Switch 5. REMEMBER, STOP ENGINE AND WAIT FOR THE WRAPPER TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BEFORE MAKING ANY ADJUSTMENTS 22

23 Steering While Wrapping 1.

Figure 20: Remote Control 23

24 Loading Last Bale 1. When loading last bale, use bale wrapped for the finish bale or use end cap. If possible load position the forks underneath the bale to avoid any holes in the Plastic, Position bale same as normal. 2. If using end cap, pickup bale as normal, strip end cap over the bale as you did the first bale, Then set end cap down on the ground. 3. Now pickup the end bale from the closed end of the end cap positioning the forks underneath the bale, load bale with open end against previous bale. ( Figure 21) Figure 21: Last Bale Loaded 24

25 Pushing Off Last Bale of the Row 1. Manually wrap the bales until approximately ½ to ¾ down the web deck. 2. Switch the Automatic/Manual Switch to System Manual, 3. Assemble the push bar and the push bar stand using supplied pin, (Figure 22) 4. Slide on web attachment onto the push bar. 5. Position push bar onto the web deck with the push bar stand centered on the deck and the push bar plate against the bale. 6. Slide the web attachment to the first web slat that is flat on deck, Attach to the web by pulling up the 2 small pull pins and firmly positioning and latching to the web slat. 7. Manually push on the end of the push bar tube to tightly position the push plate against the bale. 8. Manually Wrap the last bales till the last bale is halfway through the hoop or the wrap will no longer stay on bale, Note: It is very important that the Plastic curls over the edge of the bale for a better seal. 9. Cut plastic. 10. Once the bales are off the web, you can reverse the web until you can reach the web attachment from the front of the wrapper, then remove the web attachment, add the extension pole and repeat steps 3 thru With 1 or 2 more bites you can push the bales completely off the rollers, or if you wish, after step 7 you can keep pushing until the bale is thru the hoop and off the spears, pull the wrapper away and lift the tailgate and back into the bales to make sure there is no air gaps on the last few bales. 12. Lift tail gate all the way up. Fasten Lock bar, 13. Lower hitch by reversing the setup Procedure. Figure 22: Assembled Push Bar 25

26 Service Schedule Every 8 Hours of Operation 1. Grease Idler wheels on Hoop 2. Oil Chains with a light duty penetrating oil 3. Oil Dispenser gear and the bushing on both ends of dispenser rolls with a light duty penetrating oil 4. Lightly grease Self-Propelled wheel gear 5. Check tire Pressure Every 100 hours of Operation 1. Grease all drive line bearings with 2-3 pumps of Grease 2. Grease Brake pivot bearings 3. Change Hydraulic filters 4. Check Hydraulic fluid Level 5. Service Honda Engine According to Manufacturer s Specs Once a Year 1. Grease Ramp roller bearings 2. Remove Clean and grease wheel bearings 26

27 Wrapping Tips 1. Avoid Steep Inclines or Declines, Level ground works best. 2. Avoid loose soil, mud, or anything that could cause the Wrapper to sink. 3. Try to Wrap in a straight line. Wrapping around Curves will cause one side of bale to be tight and the other side to stand away, causing air pockets and possible spoilage. 4. Recommended layers plastic using 1 mil thickness. Recommended 8 layers plastic using 1.5 mil thickness. 5. KEMCO recommends 1.5 mil thickness plastic, especially for big square bales. Plastic 1.5 mil thick will not let stem poke thru the plastic as quickly and also will not tear as easily in hot weather. The cost per bale is the same for a supply of 1.5 mil plastic. 6. Our Kemco wrapper can wrap up to 6 6 bales, however by reducing bale size you will get better wrapped hay. (5 round bales and 6 square bales will give great results) 7. Successful silage can be made over a wide moisture range. (30 to 70% moisture) In general 40 to 55% moisture makes the best silage hay. 8. Run rows of wrapped hay North and South 9. Kemco wrappers let you start second row with a loaded machine by lifting tailgate with bales still on machine. (Figure 23) Figure 23: Ready to Start Second Row 27
