John Deere 36A Loader

Hi all, I have a John Deere 2010 with a 36A loader. The loader has a manure fork/ bucket on it now and I am mainly planning on using the tractor for loading/unloading round bales, so the bucket isn't gonna do much good. What are my options for a hay spear? Find one that is a direct fit or will I have to modify a mounting plate on the loader? Thanks for the responses in advance, I appreciate all of the knowledge.

Unless you have the loader refitted to a quick tach bucket, look for a bale fork that attaches to the bucket with chains. DO NOT even think of just using the bucket- it's not that you may get hurt, it's when. And you'll also want to get a good counterweight; a 2010 doesn't have a lot of rear for that much on the front.
 
I had that same setup at one time. I had to make a mount that would fit over the tines to attach the bale spear. I used a turnbuckle to hold it on

Thanks guys. I guess you all answered my question. I have to either convert it to quick attach or just make do as it is... Thanks again... That manure fork/ bucket isn't too useful for us
