W00273-UN-04DEC91

To help prevent personal injury or accident caused from a bale falling off the spear, carry the bale low and slightly rolled back. Travel slowly over rough ground. Do not lift a bale that exceeds 317 kg (700 lb) and carry a bale that is more than 1.2 m (48 in.) in diameter which would reduce visibility.
  • DO NOT handle bales that exceed bale weight of 317 kg (700 lb).
  • When handling round bales on a slope, always approach the bale with the tractor facing uphill.
  • To help prevent personal injury because of lack of visibility, do not handle bales that exceed a diameter of 1.2 m (48 in.). Carry the bale low.

For more information and specifications, refer to separate Operator’s and Parts Manual supplied with bale spear.
