automatic?<\/strong>\nThe video shows automatic wrapping.\nConfirm which steps remain manual.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What film types are supported?<\/strong>\nThe video shows clear film.\nConfirm the supported film widths.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What maintenance does the machine need?<\/strong>\nTypical checks cover the platform, arm, and film feed.\nRequest the maintenance schedule and spare-parts list.<\/p>\n<h2>Common mistakes to avoid<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Oversized loads.<\/strong> A load too large for the platform cannot rotate.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Wrong film tension.<\/strong> Loose film leaves poor protection.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Unstable loads.<\/strong> An unstable load shifts during wrapping.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ignoring the controls.<\/strong> Confirm the settings before each
