9.2 Loading plastic film
1. Push back the handle until the dispenser latches open.
2. When removing an old roll, push upwards to latch the top roll holder in the “up”
position. Then remove the old roll core and dispose of it responsibly.
3. Sit the new roll onto the bottom roll holder and align it with the top roll holder.
4. While still the holding roll, pull the cable to release the top roll holder. The roll
of plastic film is now held in position.
5. Thread the film through the dispenser rollers as per the threading diagram.
6. Tie the end of the plastic film to the bale on the table. Never attempt to clamp
plastic film in the cut & hold mechanism.
7. Close the dispenser by releasing the latch. The roll should now rest against
one of the aluminium rollers.
9.3 Side tip bale damper
The 991B may be used in conjunction with a side tip bale damper instead of the
standard bale damper. The side tip bale damper may be used as a standard bale
damper or with one adjustment to enable it to tip the bales on their ends. To change
from standard tipping to side tipping the following is carried out.
1. Be extremely careful when working with the side tip bale damper.
2. Hinge up the bale damper cradle plate ensuring it is secure and cannot fall.
3. Remove the large linch pin and pull the support arm out on the shaft.
