OPERATING BALE SPEAR
Loader equipped with bale spear is designed to handle
round bales up to 2000 pounds.
WARNING: Operate bale spear using
extreme caution. Sharp points on bale spear
can cause serious injury or death.
Load bale spear by approaching from round end to
prevent cutting strings or puncturing plastic or net wrap.
Tilt bale spear upward to prevent bale from falling off of
spear.
Carry bales as low to the ground as possible to allow
maximum visibility and avoid tipping.
WARNING: Because of size and weight of
large bales, extreme care must be taken in
handling them. Be aware of forces acting on
stacked bales due to gravity and keep
workers far from zones of potential hazard
from shifting or falling bales. DO NOT
ALLOW BYSTANDERS!
WARNING: Keep bale spear and loader
boom clear of overhead lines. Allowing
loader boom or any attachments to contact
overhead power lines may electrify entire
tractor and electrocute (kill) operator.
