Using this vintage hay bale trolley is simple. Just place your hay bales on the flat surface of the trolley. You can use it in your barn to move hay around easily. When using it, be careful not to overload it as it's an old piece and has its limits. For maintenance, keep it in a dry place to prevent the wood from rotting. You can occasionally clean it with a soft cloth to remove dust and dirt. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the wood's natural finish.
