Bale Spear Extension For Front-End Loader
✖ |
"It's a simple way to raise the bale spear 2 ft. higher so I can stack bales three high with the loader on my Farmall 606 tractor," says David Wreath, Sharon, Okla., who used oil drill pipe and other scrap steel to make a pivoting bale spear attachment.
"A pair of cylinders tilts the spear for-ward or backward. Works great for placing bales into feeders. When the loader is dropped to the ground, the spear slips right into the center of the hole. I used a piece of 2-in. solid cold roll to make a new spear. I made it about 4 ft. long so the bale won't slide off and so that I can stack bales three high in our barn and also load them onto our gooseneck trailer.
"The 606 was an experimental tractor built low to the ground. IH built only six of them."
