Abstract
A method for operating a coupled unit with a swather attached to a tractor, and a round baler attached to the swather. The method includes using the swather to pick up a crop and to deposit the picked-up crop in a deposit area to form a swath with a swath center, using the round baler to pick up the swath via a pick-up device and to further compress the picked-up swath into a crop bale, and performing an automatic pick-up adjustment via a device adjustment on the swather and/or the round bailer via an actuator-based device setting, at which automatic pick-up adjustment a relative picking up position taken at the swath center and at the pick-up device relative to one another with respect to a round baler transverse axis is adjusted so as to achieve a uniform build-up of the crop bale.
