Description

The HLA Attachments TE5549BO500 Three-Prong Bale Spear with Guard is a loader-mounted hay-handling attachment designed for moving large 4 ft × 4 ft × 8 ft square bales. It combines three 49-inch Kverneland bale tines, a bolt-on bale guard, and a rated capacity of 5,000 lb at a 24-inch load center. With 44 inches of usable tine length and the main tines spaced 23 inches apart, this bale spear is configured for stable engagement with large square bales. The included BO500 universal skid-steer-style quick-attach interface allows it to connect to compatible loader carriers, while its guard provides added protection when handling large square bales stacked two high.

Built for Large Square Bale Handling

The TE5549 uses a three-prong arrangement to handle large square bales. Its Kverneland tines measure 49 inches in total length and provide 44 inches of usable length. The three main tines are positioned 23 inches apart across a 50-inch-wide frame, creating a practical configuration for 4 ft × 4 ft × 8 ft square bales.

This attachment is rated to carry up to 5,000 lb at a 24-inch load center. The frame is 50 inches wide and 50 inches high, providing the structure needed for its intended large-bale applications. The complete attachment weighs approximately 330 lb.

Bolt-On Guard for Stacked Bales

A bolt-on bale guard is included with this model. The guard provides added protection when handling large square bales stacked two high and gives the attachment an overall height of 50 inches. Its bolt-on configuration integrates the guard with the TE5549 base attachment while retaining the specified three-tine bale-handling layout.

Storage Safety Foot

The TE5549BO500 includes a safety foot for rollover protection while the attachment is stored. This feature helps support the attachment in its storage position when it is disconnected from the loader.
