[QUOTE="BeefmasterB, post: 683627, member: 8931"] Just stand the bale up on one of its ends, take a pocket knife and cut through the net wrap and pull it off. This is easy if you have a front-end bale spear that raises and lowers - just spear the bale at one end, lift it up high enough, tilt the front end down and let the bale fall down on its end. While doing this keep a bale on the rear to give you stability while handling the bale on the front. If your front bale spear only lifts but does not tilt down (by way of hydraulic control lever) then you would have to either spear the bale from the side, lift it and try to rotate it on the spear so the end points down and then lower it back to the ground where you want it OR tie a chain/rope around one end and then pull from the other direction to get the bale to stand on end, allowing the net wrap to be cut off easily.
