Other times however, more specialist knowledge or specific parts are required to fix the issue.

How important is it to keep a pallet wrapper clean?

Very important! Make sure rubbish doesn’t collect around the equipment as stray pieces can get caught under the Spinny turntable and cause annoying jams and expensive breakage. Keep all pallet wrapping equipment away from major dust sources too, particularly other equipment that regularly emits dust. Preventing exposure to dust and other corrosive substances is important for protecting equipment.
