WARNING
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
• Never carry a load with a Bale Spear that exceeds rated lift
capacities of the tractor/skid steer. Consult your tractor
loader or skid steer Operator’s Manual for operating
capacity, lifting capacity, and specifications. Exceeding the
machine’s rated capacities can result in a rollover or other
serious hazards that can cause serious injury or death.
• Lightweight power machines may need weight added to the
rear to maintain steering control and prevent forward
tipping or side tipping caused by a heavy front load. Consult
your power machine Operator’s Manual to determine
proper weight requirements and maximum weight
limitations.
