An agricultural round baler (1) comprises a mechanism (30) for placing netwrap (41) over the edge of a cylindrical bale that is created in the baling chamber (24a). The mechanism includes a netwrap delivery assembly (50) having of a pair of arms (51) pivotally affixed to the outside of the baling chamber sidewalls (24). The arms hold an assembly frame (54). An actuator (70) controls the pivoting motion of the delivery assembly (50) inserting the netwrap between the stationary dimple roll (8) and the pivot roll (9) of the sledge assembly (26). Positioned outside the sidewall (24) and inside an outer frame member (25) is a transition area (90). The netwrap (41) is inserted between the stationary dimple roll (8) and the pivot roll (9) as well as into the transition area (90). Because the width of the delivery assembly (50) is wider than that of the cylindrical bale, a portion of the netwrap (41) is inserted over the edge of the bale by use of the transition area (90).
