Threading the twine

Attention, danger of injury!
Prior to inserting of new spools of twine and threading the
twine: stop machine, switch-off power take-off shaft and tractor
motor, take out ignition key and wait for standstill of the
machine. Make the control powerless (disconnect electrical
connection to the tractor).
Note!
Optimum results in production during use of our machines
depend of multiple factors. Therefore:
• The threaded twines must not contact each other or run
crosswise.
• Use high-grade twines (recommendation: plastic twines).
Place the twine spools upright side by side in the twine box.
If the spools are inserted the wrong way round, the twine will
tend to loop and break.
• Heed and follow the instructions given in the operating
instructions.
• For working in extreme ambient conditions: request to our
customer service. Heed the technical data at the end of this
operating instruction.
