A compact planer that stops with half the lane still milled is not a fault you fix from memory, and the crew behind you knows it. This BOMAG Service Manual covers the BM 500/15 and BM 600/15 compact milling machines, serial ranges S/N 101 882 00 1001 and 101 882 11 1001, and its 1178 pages are the difference between swapping parts on a guess and working a fault through system by system.
It is BOMAG service documentation, document number 008 916 85, written in English for the mechanic doing the repair rather than the operator reading warnings. It follows the machine from the engine through the drives and hydraulics to the milling drum itself.
The PDF downloads immediately after purchase and carries over 17,000 bookmarks, so you can jump straight to the system you are chasing. Print the pages you need and let them get dirty at the machine; the file on your laptop stays clean.

Bomag BM 500, BM 15, BM 600 Common Problems This Manual Covers
Milling drum stalls or stops under load
The drum bogs down or quits mid-cut while the engine keeps running, usually pointing to the drum drive rather than the drum itself. The manual's drum drive coverage walks through checking and repairing the drive so you can isolate the cause instead of guessing.
Manual Section: Drum driveMachine will not travel or creeps weakly
The planer barely moves, pulls to one side, or loses drive when the cut loads up. These symptoms trace back through the closed-loop travel drive, and the travel drive section gives you a structured path from symptom to component instead of pulling hoses at random.
Manual Section: Travel driveSeized picks and worn tool holders
Cutting tools that will not release, battered holders and uneven pick wear ruin the cut pattern and load the whole drive train. The milling drum section covers the drum and its tooling so you can service holders correctly rather than beating parts in and out.
Manual Section: Milling drumWater spray system clogged or not delivering
Blocked nozzles or a dead spray system means overheated picks, dust and rapid tool wear on every pass. The water spray system section shows the layout and service points so you can restore flow before it costs you a drum's worth of tools.
Manual Section: Water spray systemHydraulic functions slow or overheating
Sluggish height adjustment, weak auxiliary functions or oil running hot all point into the hydraulic system. The manual's hydraulic coverage lets you work through the circuit methodically, which matters when the machine is standing in a half-finished cut.
Manual Section: Hydraulic systemHard starting or intermittent electrical faults
A machine that cranks and dies, or drops functions when a connector gets shaken loose, kills more shift time than a real breakdown. The electrics section gives you the wiring and component information to chase the fault to its source.
Manual Section: ElectricsFrequently Asked Questions
Which machines does this manual cover?
The BOMAG BM 500/15 and BM 600/15 compact milling machines, serial ranges S/N 101 882 00 1001 and S/N 101 882 11 1001. Check your machine's serial plate against these ranges before buying; BOMAG service books are written for specific serial ranges.
Is this a genuine BOMAG service manual?
Yes. It is BOMAG service documentation, document number 008 916 85, in English, running 1178 pages. It is a Service Manual written for repair work, not an operator's booklet or a parts catalogue.
Does it cover repair of the milling drum and travel drive?
Yes. The manual works through the machine's main systems, including the milling drum and its tooling, the drum drive, the travel drive and the hydraulic system, which is where most downtime on a compact planer originates.
