M2(W) / M3(W) / M6W MAINTENANCE AND CARE NORMAL MAINTENANCE The BOGBALLE machine is manufactured in such a way that it requires a minimum of maintenance. In the construction it is considered that cleaning and lubrication can be completed quickly and thoroughly – without taking apart the machine.
M2(W) / M3(W) / M6W SPECIAL MAINTENANCE, Friction clutch The transmission of the machine is equipped with friction/overload clutch. The friction clutch is a most important component protecting against overload – and a damaged transmission / PTO- shaft.

Service and repair are made free of cost within 12 months from date of purchase on the following conditions: • That the failure is due to construction or material faults (Normal wear, missing maintenance and misuse not included).
M2(W) / M3(W) / M6W SPREADING SYSTEM The BOGBALLE spreading system is base on an Integrated Center System – ICS, where the spreading discs of the machine during NORMAL spreading – rotate against each other – and spread in an angle on 180°, with full overlap.
M2(W) / M3(W) / M6W SETTING SYSTEM The setting system consists of a scale pointer, different connection rods and outlet shutters. SETTING POINTER, Hydraulic / CALIBRATOR. ➊ ➊ ➋ & The connection rod of the setting pointer must be mounted / adjusted in such a way, that the shutters of the spreader are closed - when the setting pointer is placed on the scale ciffer ”0”.
The Trend sytem gives distribution of fertiliser a totally new dimension, where PRECISION, USER FRIENDLINESS and RELIABILITY, are the three main areas in which BOGBALLE M() / M()W – differs most essentially from the other products in the market. •...

M2(W) / M3(W) / M6W • The Trend system ensures an optimum result, with a minimum of setting. • The transmission of the machine with reversible rotation direction together with the double function of the spreading vane ensure that the spreader can be transformed from NORMAL spreading to HEADLAND speading –...

M2(W) / M3(W) / M6W TILT ANGLE The machine must be ”tilted” as indicated in the spread chart. The tilt angle is important for the spread width and is – besides the quantity setting – in reality the only setting to be done on the machine.

varies with each delivery. If an exact quantity is required (Kg/Ha), it is recommended to CALIBRATE the machine by use of the BOGBALLE rate check kit. (See the paragraph ”USE OF RATE CHECK KIT”) The quantity (Kg/Ha) is set by the scale pointer of the machine.
M2(W) / M3(W) / M6W U- cut VANE / SPREAD WIDTH Setting The vanes are mounted as standard in POS. 1-2 When mounting the fixing bolt must be pulled fully out into the U-shaped cut before tightening the nut.
M2(W) / M3(W) / M6W FUNCTION OF SPREADING VANE The spreading vane is a key part of the machine – for which reason it is very important to mount the vanes correctly – and that they are intact. The Trend system is using both sides of the spreading vanes with: FRONT SIDE for NORMAL- spreading –...
M2(W) / M3(W) / M6W The Trend SYSTEM….. will basically: ”Use the rotation direction which is most suitable for NORMAL spreading ……and HEADLAND spreading respectively.” This means in practice that the system ensures with NORMAL rotation direction, full overlap at NORMAL spreading on the main area of the field ……and a limited spread pattern with single overlap towards the border at headland spreading –...

M2(W) / M3(W) / M6W The spreading can be divided into two systems. • A system for NORMAL spreading on the NORMAL area of the field. • A system for HEADLAND spreading along the BORDER of the field. The HEADLAND- spreading can again be divided into two systems, say: •...
The machine setting is based on spread tests made in BOGBALLE’s test hall. The spreading abilities of the fertiliser in question may vary in comparison to the abilities of the fertiliser which was tested at BOGBALLE – which formed the basis for the spread chart.
BOGBALLE recommends normally only to use test trays in case the fertiliser type spread is not found in the spread chart or in case you are not sure about the quality of the fertiliser.

(small overlap) distribution. One of the big BOGBALLE strengths is that the 4-double overlap of the machine ensures a good flexibility – say a minimum Vk – over a very very large spectrum. (In this example from 6 to 21 metres) This means in practice that the machine is able to absorb deviations in the distance of tramlines, deviations in PTO speed and to a certain degree –...

The BOGBALLE machine can optionally …..be changed to HEADLAND spreading – without leaving the tractor cab. This way you have a very user friendly system – which ensures at the same time optimum headland spreading.

. Such a test must be done very carefully - and the test can if it is not correct - be misleading. Not sold by BOGBALLE - information available from your dealer. The test has a primary purpose - by adjusting the PTO rotations on the machine, to ensure the required spreading to BORDER (see examples of HEADLAND spread patterns to border on the next pages).
HEADLAND spreading, FROM BORDER with border to the right in the (Option) driving direction The BOGBALLE machine can be changed to HEADLAND spreading – without leaving the tractor cabin.

M2(W) / M3(W) / M6W The HEADLAND pattern FROM BORDER will only to a limited degree be changed when changing the PTO rpms. Examples of HEADLAND spread pattern, FROM BORDER. The HEADLAND spreading system FROM BORDER, is developed for spread widths from 12 –...
M2(W) / M3(W) / M6W The HEADLAND spreading system, FROM BORDER, is developed for considering the environment as much as possible – and considering at the same time the demands for optimum yield. • Please consider that the distance between the tramlines must be equal to the spread width.
M2(W) / M3(W) / M6W TURNINGS AT THE HEADLANDS When turning at the headlands, the below OPEN / CLOSE instructions should be followed. • If the instructions are followed the result will be full overlap to the end of the field and no fertiliser is spread outside the field.
M2(W) / M3(W) / M6W SPREADING ON NON RECTANGULAR FIELDS When spreading in non rectangular fields, it is often the opinion that one side of the maschine should be closed in order to achieve a good result. Closing one side of the machine results in sharp overlaps in the areas where the closing is done.
M2(W) / M3(W) / M6W CHECKS OF TRACTOR – before use It is important that the lift arms of the tractor are set horizontally. If this is not the case the spreader will ”tilt” and the fertiliser will not spread equally to both sides of the spreader.
When driving in wet field and at high speed, mud, stones or may be water may be thrown up into the hopper from the rear wheels of the tractor. In such cases it is recommended to use the BOGBALLE hopper cover. •...
M2(W) / M3(W) / M6W M()W – special M()W BOGBALLE ……….the ultimative solution! The M2W and M3W machine is respectively equipped with one and two parallel mounted 6 tons stainless load cells, which makes it possible together with CALIBRATOR – to have complete control during the field work.
M2(W) / M3(W) / M6W How to use the quadro calibration system BOGBALLE M-line is as standard equipped with the quadro calibration system which is used for adjusting the spreader’s quantity and for rest emptying (see the enclosed quadro folder).
M2(W) / M3(W) / M6W Pictogram Read Operator’s Manual and safety rules before starting. Stay under the machine is prohibited. Safety distance for flying material must be observed. Avoid contact with rotating parts. Avoid contact as long as parts are moving.
