A gripping and cutting device ( 11 ) is connected to a lifting frame ( 3 ) supporting a circular guide track of a foil: dispenser ( 6 ) so as to be vertically movable with the lifting frame. In the method, the wrapping action is started from a freely chosen point relative to the vertical direction of the object and ended correspondingly at a freely chosen point relative to the vertical direction of the object.
