2059655 9013995 PCTABS00002 There is disclosed a bale wrapper apparatus (10) which can apply stretchable plastics film around a round-bale (17) and which comprises a main frame (13) which can be coupled to the front or rear of a propelling vehicle (12), a turntable (16) mounted on the main frame (13) and adapted to receive a round-bale (17) thereon with its axis (18) extending substantially horizontally, means (19, 20) for rotating the bale (17) about its axis (18), and means for rotating the turntable (16) about a vertical axis (21) so that film withdrawn from a film dispenser reel (not shown) can automatically apply air tight wrapping around the bale upon rotation of the bale about its axis (18) and rotation of the turntable about axis (21). An automatic film applicator (not shown) is mounted on the turntable and automatically cuts the film after a bale has been wrapped, and holds the cut end to apply this to a newly deposited bale on the turntable. A pick-up mechanism (23) is mounted at the front of the apparatus, with respect to its direction of forward travel, and in the operative position of the apparatus (10) it will be laterally off-set with respect to the propelling vehicle (12), so that the pick-up mechanism (23) can be aligned with a row of bales (17) lying on the ground, and the propelling vehicle can therefore move forwards in a straight line along side the row of bales in order that each bale can be received in turn by gripping arms (25) of the pick-up mechanism, and then transferred rearwardly onto the turntable (16) so that bale wrapping can take place.
