Welger 435 net

[Rs chunk]

Has anyone ever sussed why the net likes to roll around one of the rollers instead of the bale? Knife and anvil all good

Same problem here different baler. seems worse when about 50 bale of net left on roll.

The net feeding rollers?

Tension on the break is the only thing I could suggest, not cutting cleanly and stray ends wrapping around roller?

The net feeding rollers?

One of the chamber rollers the one the net passes over when it’s netting. I went home and cleaned the rubber roller with pressure washer and that did the trick working fine again

There was I thinking this was exclusively a JD problem.
Seems then that the importance of roller clean must not be ignored. Another thing highlighted above is the change in the pull off the net roll as the net is used.

There is a flat plate of tin between the rollers the net feed into if that gets loose or damaged will not let net down to chamber took me ages to figure it out was packed with dirt no problem since cleaned it last season

We find with the welgers u have to change the net knife every 10k bales overthwise it can cause all types of different problem.

You need to make sure this plate is bent up far enough so the net can’t get to the front side of the roller.

sounds stupid but this was happening me with my 235 welger ( same net system i believe), now everytime i change a roll of net i put lots of baby powder on the net rollers, this doesnt allow the dust or sticky grass stick on the roller and wont roll the net around the rollers. Some farmers i go to bale for do laugh at me coming out of the tractor with baby powder

Always seemed to happen when I had a welger when behind the net rollers got full of dust and stuff, good clean out with the airline seemed to sort it ! Never had to use talc on a welger the John Deere I used to have is a different story !
