The ball is something you either use or not. To compensate for the ball or not you "calibrate" the tool, which is basically a "nulling" at any point you want to have as a reference. I believe mine came with the ball unattached, but in the box.

I was just trying to figure that out today while playing with mine.It does not appear to be removable and therefore quite useless on this device.

I changed it out on mine. I had to take it to a diesel truck repair shop. They removed it and installed the 2"ball to the proper torque. I tried to do it by hand but it is almost impossible. It requires a special impact wrench.

Dean is confused, Levi is correct. If the top of the ball head is threaded with a standard thread 3/8-16 or 1/4-20 then this clamp could be attached. I would probably recommend some loctite on the threads especially if usign the reducer, of course this is only a good idea if you are not wanting to remove it anytime soon.

I asked same question and deleted it after a couple crazy answers. There is no way really. You could take the hopper off, but it would be a big hassle. #1 thing they should try to improve: easily swappable hoppers. Charge extra for a second one.

The ball head is screwed on and completely removable, so you should be able to replace it with any other system you prefer.

It sounds as though your ball is not seated properly or the connection is not tight enough. I have had this model for nearly a year with no stability issue at all. My husband has used the same type for nearly three years and his is still very stable. Mine did come loose one time and I had trouble getting back on securely. Once I got it to 'snap' in place it has remained tight and moves only when I move it myself. If this is a new purchase I would suggest contacting the seller for replacement.

I'd be careful with pruchasing anything that doesn't come with it. The balls that come with it are specific to the machine's power and diameter of where the balls come out. We've bought additional balls for my grandson after we knew what we were trying to imititate/replace.

You can adjust the speed and frequency of the balls firing out. But when you set it up it doesn´t change itself during the play. Also the direction is still the same at this model.

Yes, the ball can be removed (unscrew the plastic base plate on top, the thumb set screw on side and a hex nut opposite the thumb screw and the ball can be removed from the bottom). My digital calipers measure the diameter at 25/32 of an inch. or 19.79 mm

You can't remove just the ball head but you can remove whole head. I don't know if you can switch the head with others or not.

If you can unbolt the ball, yes. The ball bolt drops threw the center and when you retighten the bolt on the ball it holds it in place. The v-bar lifts out and you just set it in place when you are backing into your trailer. I drilled mine on the side of the v- bar and after I hook up the trailer, I flip it around and drop a pin through it to hold it there. This way I don't have to really take it in and out. Otherwise it's great and I'm very happy I got it. It guides the trailer right in with no problems. I do allot of trailer towing for Boy Scouts and several other leaders have gotten them after seeing mine. If you can unbolt the ball, yes.

What we ended up doing is taking a very big flat-bladed screwdriver and wedging it in between one side of the hex bolt and the metal of the bottom bar. We then used a great big wrench to turn the ball to tighten it. (So we turned the ball and held the nut in place as opposed to holding the ball still and turning the nut). Doing it this way did mar the rubbery covering of the unit a little, but it also got the job done.

It comes with the round clip that attaches to the back of the unit, but you can use the clip you have already IF it it snaps on to the ball mount stem on your current mount. Hope this helps?

Not adjustable but the ball return ramp is positioned so that it shouldn't be a problem. It was helpful.
