4 Use and function
The baler is intended for compressing cardboard and plastic or other forms of dry waste with a
similar consistency, see the table:
Note 1: Only loose sheets, not bundled or solid lumps.
Note 2: Only perforated bottles or cans without lids.
If you want to compress special waste materials, please contact your dealer or the manufacturer
directly for advice beforehand to enquire whether the materials you wish to compress might
overload the baler.
Important!
The baler must not be used for compressing wet or oily material, foam rubber, and other
strong expanding materials.
An example of strong expanding materials could be plastic rolls or the equivalent, which
would build up strong spring forces during compression. Another example could be
bubble wrap or anything with air trapped inside.
Never place long items upright, place them horizontally, or at least diagonally in the baler.
The baler must not be used for explosive and inflammable waste.
Bale size:
The bale size is set at the factory. The bale size may be permanently changed if necessary.
Contact the dealer for more information.
It is possible to change the bale's size individually from time to time with a single press on the
finish indicator button. See chapter 11, Filling and compression, Finishing the bale prematurely.
