Looks like the haylage bales are too soft but also too heavy for the ELHO wrapper.
The bale sags between the rollers and stops turning. The rollers slip and the film goes round and round the same bit of the bale.
Never had this problem before. Usually the JD550 gets them plenty tight enough. Usually the wrapper seems to handle very soft bales, even non stringed heaps ejected from the baler.
The wrapper mechanicals looks OK and we pushed the rollers a bit closer together, but not much help.
Maybe I am just getting old and careless.
Going for some bags tomorrow to finish the job. At least they will go on the bales. Fortunately only 10 bales to do.
Any ideas why the wrapper should be playing up or is it just the soft but heavy bales.
