How to Find and Order the Right Bale King Parts
There’s no time to waste when operations come to a halt, which means when your Bale King goes down, you want to get it back up and running as soon as possible.
Before contacting a dealer, you’ll want to know your Bale King model, serial number and required parts as this can help avoid unnecessary and time-consuming back-and-forth. But maybe you’re not sure where to locate all this information.
Your bale processor is a complex machine but Bridgeview Manufacturing has all of the information (online parts diagrams), people, and parts supply in place to make it streamlined. So let’s get into the nitty-gritty of it all.
Know Your Model and Serial Number
Before you can handle any repairs or order any replacement parts, you first need to know the model you have. The best way to do this is by identifying the model and serial number. The placement of these numbers is different for each model so the best way to know where to look for them is by consulting your Bale King manual. If you’re having trouble locating your manual, don’t worry, we have an online library of them here.
Identify the Part You Need
To make the replacement process as smooth and speedy as possible, it’s best to already have the necessary information about which part of your processor is malfunctioning or needs replacing. The more information you can provide, the smoother the entire process will be.
When discussing the repair or replacement, here’s a quick checklist of information to have ready:
- Your Bale King’s model and serial number
- The needed part name/description
- The needed part number, if available
- The quantity of parts needed
- A photo of the part if identification is uncertain
Your Bale King manual contains necessary part information, as well as diagrams for easier identification.
Plan Ahead for Common Wear Parts
While Bale Kings are built to last, as with any machine, normal wear and tear means part replacement may eventually be necessary. Some common wear items to keep an eye on include flails, bearings, PTO driveline components and hydraulic components.
Regularly inspecting these common wear components can help you identify parts that are nearing the end of their service life. If you know something is wearing, ordering ahead before it fails can help avoid turning a routine replacement into unexpected downtime.
Make Ordering and Shipping Easier
The last thing you want when you’re waiting on replacement parts is to have shipping issues, such as the wrong part being sent or an incorrect quantity arriving, therefore keeping your processor out of operation for even longer.
To avoid these issues, always make sure to double-check part numbers and quantities, provide complete shipping and contact information, and order early when possible rather than waiting until a part fully fails.
Customers looking to order Bale King parts should start with their authorized dealer. If you aren’t sure where that is, our Bridgeview Manufacturing dealer map can help you locate your nearest dealer.
Getting Your Bale King Back into Operation
A little preparation can make ordering Bale King parts so much easier. By having your model and serial number, identifying the part and quantity you need, and planning ahead for common wear items, you can help your dealer get you the right parts with less back-and-forth and get your bale processor back to work sooner.
