5. IMPLEMENT STORAGE
Clean, inspect, service, and make necessary repairs to the Bale Spear when parking it for long periods and
when parking it at the end of a working season. This will help ensure that the unit is ready for use next time you
hook up to it.
1. Clean off any dirt and grease that may have accumulated on the bale spear. Scrape off compacted dirt and
then wash it surface thoroughly with a garden hose.
2. Inspect bale spear for loose, damaged, or worn parts and adjust or replace when needed.
3. Repaint parts where paint is worn or scratched too prevent rust. Paint is available from your local Bush Hog
dealer.
4. Replace all damaged or missing guards and decals.
5. Store bale spear on a level surface in a clean, dry place. Inside storage will reduce maintenance and make
for a longer bale spear life.
6. Do not allow children to play on or around the stored bale spear.
