    Safety Legend Read Operator’s Manual and safety rules before starting. Never go under a raised spreader. Never go between spreader and tractor when engine is started. Never use the ladder when the spreader is not mounted on a tractor. Safety distance for flying material must be observed. Never go behind the spreader with rotating spreading discs.
  • Page 8: Liability

    You are fully responsible for the setting of the spreader. The spreader must be set according to the fertiliser in use. Be aware that the fertiliser batch tested in the BOGBALLE A/S test facilities may differ from the fertiliser delivered to you even if with the same specifications.
  • Page 9: Check List

  • Page 10: Before Every Use

    Check list Before every use: ● Check that the spreading discs turn easily when the PTO shaft is not mounted. NOTE: If not - check the transmission. ● Check that the PTO shaft has the correct length, with a correct overlap of the axle ends (min. 100 mm.) for the specific tractor (see figure 1) If the overlap is too big or too small it will result in a serious damage of the complete transmission, including...
  • Page 11: Before First Time Use

    Check list Before first time use: ● Before filling in fertiliser, cover the entire spreader with the metal protective oil delivered with the spreader. This will fill up and seal joints, preventing fertiliser dust getting into gaps (see figure 1) ●...
  • Page 12: After Every Use

    Cleaning After every use: ● Clean the spreader. NOTE: Do not high-pressure clean directly on the seals of the transmission. Water will damage gears and bea- rings and will not be accepted as warranty (see figure 1) ● W-spreaders: Do not high pressure-clean the load cells and the bearings on the chassis. ●...
  • Page 13: Useful Hints

    Check list Useful hints ● The speed when driving on public roads must not exceed 30 km/h. The speed during spreading should not exceed 30 km/h. ● Prevent packing the fertiliser by driving long distances on uneven ground with a full hopper. If the fertiliser is packing in the bottom of the hopper, it might damage the agitator of the spreader.

    Normal and headland spreading In general The rotation direction of the spreading discs determines the mode of spreading. For normal spreading the discs must turn towards each other (in-centre) , for headland spreading the discs turn away from each other (see figure 1) (off-centre) (see figure 2)
  • Page 46: From Border

    Normal and headland spreading From Border The From Border spreading system is developed for working widths from 12 – 28 metres. In case working widths larger than 28 metres are required – the To Border spreading system must be used. On working widths 12 - 21 metres it is necessary to lower the PTO speed when spreading in the 2 tramline (see figure 1)
