1. While driving up to the bale, center the Bale Spear horizontally on the bale and spear points about 1/3 of
the way below center of bale.
2. With spear level, drive spears into bale until spears are fully inserted and bale is against the hitch frame.
3. Lift bale up a short distance and tilt spear points up 5 - 10 degrees from horizontal. Check to make sure
bale is properly secured before traveling.
4.2 Traveling with a Load
1. Always use Tractors and/or Skid Steers that are properly ballasted for the load being transferred. Not doing
so can result in loss of steering control.
2. Only use Tractors with wide front axles and move all wheels out to their widest position for maximum
stability.
3. When traveling empty, transport with spear points at a safe height and angle that will not impale a person
or livestock.
4. When transporting with a bale, transport with bale fully against the spear frame and with spear points(s) up
5-10 degrees from horizontal. Never transport with bale halfway or more out on the spear(s).
5. Wen stopped, always lower spear point to the ground so that no person or livestock could walk/run into the
spear and become impaled. If spear will not rest on the ground, point spear down to protect people and
livestock.
6. Always keep bale centered horizontally on the spear(s). This will optimize stability while transporting.
7. Always transport with bale raised to a height that does not hinder the line of sight going forward. When
possible, keep the bale low to the ground to help maintain stability of the Skid Steer/Tractor.
8. Reduce ground speed when turning and leave enough clearance to avoid making contact with obstacles
such as building, trees, and fences.
9. Transporting bales over ramps, grades, bumpy ground, soft surfaces, or slippery surfaces reduces
machine stability and lift capacity. Transporting and lifting bales under these conditions is extremely
dangerous.
10. Always travel straight up and down inclines. Never make turns while on an incline and always keep spear
point(s) tilted up 5-10 degrees from horizontal regardless of angle of incline.
11. Always Transport over ramps and inclines in excess of 10 percent with bale on the “Uphill” side of the
machine. This will require one to drive-up and back down steep inclines.
12. Keep equipment away from electrical power lines. Place an orange waring sign under overhead electrical
power lines indication type of danger above.
13. When traveling on public roads at night or during the night or during the day, use accessory lights and
devices for adequate waring to operators of other vehicles. Comply with all federal, state, and local laws.
14. When traveling on roadways, transport in such a way that faster moving vehicles may pas you safely.
