Remember, the XP film has been
converted making it stronger right from the start! It is
not necessary to stretch it as with conventional hand film.
Start by simply walking forward
around your palletized load, holding the film roll comfortably
in front of you. When you come to the corner of your load give
the film a firm push just as you round the corner. Repeat this
pattern a couple of times around your palletized load or until
you feel that you have covered as much of the load needed to
achieve a secure wrap. The load type will determine how taut
the film should be applied. Use minimal tension on light loads
and slightly more tension on heavier loads.
(Converted film should be held
with just enough tension to make the edge stand up, but not
so tight as to cause the film to neck in. A good rule of thumb
is to use from 2 to 5 pounds of tension when wrapping.)
