All
KRM spreaders are positively bristling with innovative features
to ensure the machine is simple to use, easy to set, gives an
accurate application rate and spread
pattern and stands the test of time.

Adaptable
Agitator
All KRM fertiliser
spreaders feature the same uniq agitator design. The agitator
is mounted eccentrically above the disc and relies entirely on
the resistance of the fertiliser to make it ossolate. Therefore
if a light material such as urea is in the hopper the resistance
will be low and the agitation will be gentle and avoid powdering
the material. Equally if a heavy material such as potash is in
the hopper the agitator is forced to ossolate hard and ensures
good agitation and even flow on to the disc.

Flow control,
Blockage prevention
To ensure
the same flow of material through the outlet is maintained regardless
of the weight of material in the hopper a cone is mounted below
the screens. The cone also prevents fertiliser packing around
the agitator during transport. Hopper screens are standard on
all KRM spreaders and prevent lumps of material or foreign objects
blocking the shutters.

Small
Seeds Kit
Standard equipment
on all M2 and M3 machine (Option on L1 and L2). The small seeds
kit works by simply twisting the base of the hopper to restrict
the apertures size. Allows the machine to be used for spreading
slug pellets and oil seed rape etc.

|
Double
Outlet
Rather than
a single outlet all KRM machines utilize a patented double shutter
design. This ensures that as the opening increases in size the
drop on point at which the fertiliser hits the disc remains the
same. Therefore when changing application rate it is not necessary
to alter any machine settings. This simplifies machine setting
on all models and is an essential feature on any machine fitted
with electronic controls
and using variable application rates and forward speeds.

Simple Calibration
Conveniently
stored on the spreader, the new M2/3 Quadro provides the operator
a quick and simple method without tools, or removing discs or
vanes, to check the application rate as required by Quality Assurance
schemes. This encourages application accuracy and also allows
fast and easy cleaning when changing materials

New
Fertiliser Test Kit
This kit takes
the guess work out of spreader setting, allowing a farmer to check
the specification of each material being applied. The kit contains
an easy to use hardness tester and a sieve set, this information
can be entered directly on to the KRM or Bogballe website and
a spread chart is recommended.
Standard on
all electronic spreaders

Fully Sealed
Clutch
Our unique
fully sealed and maintenance free slip clutch protects the machines
transmission. All KRM spreaders come with a 3 year gearbox warranty.

|
Spread
Pattern
All
KRM spreaders use a "Double Double Overlap" spread
pattern in simple terms this means the application rate gradually
built up using 4 layers. This provides much greater tolerance
to all external factors. Learn more about "Double
Double Overlap"

Machine
Testing
Bogballe
have their own fully automatic test hall located at their factory.
This is used to ensure the accuracy of the comprehensive spread
charts supplied with each machine. KRM regularly send large loads
of UK fertiliser to Denmark for tray testing as materials can
alter in their characteristics. During recent testing with Terra
Nitram a coefficient of variation of 6.1% was achieved using an
M2 spreader at 36m - an excellent result which demonstrates the
capability of our system.
