The Circle of Doom's a bad place to be. So, here are the 1st thing you should check to avoid it when your film starts breaking:

1. The Stretch Film
a. Is it threaded properly?
b. Is the film the one you're supposed to be using?
c. Are there flaws (gels, nicks, tears, etc.)?
2. The Load and Pallet
a. Are there sharp corners or protrusions?
3. The Stretch Wrapper
a. Is the wrap force set correctly?
b. Are there nicks, cuts, or resin build-up on the film contact surfaces?
c. Film Clamp (on fully automatic stretch wrappers):
i. Scissor Clamps: nicks, cuts, resin build-up on the film contact surfaces?
ii. Vacuum clamps: is the air pressure correct? Air filter clean?
