TRANSPORT & PLACEMENT SAFETY • Before raising/lowering/mov- ing the auger, make sure the area around the auger is clear of obstructions and/or unau- thorized personnel. Never allow anyone to stand on or beneath auger while transport- ing or placing auger. • Wheels must be free to move when raising or lowering auger. • Do not stand between towing vehicle and grai n auger when hitching. • Make certain that the hitch pin is in place and th e safety chain is properly attached. Use a type of hitch pin that will not permit auger to separate from towing vehicle. • Use extreme care and mini- mum ground speed when operating or tr ansporting on hillsides, over rough ground, or near ditches or fences. • Always attach an SMV (slow moving v ehicle) sign before transporting auger, and equip the auger with the necessary lights for trans portation where required by law. Always use hazard warning flasher s on the tractor/towing vehicle when transporting unl ess prohibited by law. • Do not allow riders on the ma chine, towing vehicle, tr actor, or skid steer dur- ing transport. • Stay away from overhead obstructions and power lines when operating and transporting. Electrocution ca n occur without direct contact. • Ensure that tires are inflated to t he manufacturer's recommended pressure. • Review the work safety area diagram before starting work. • Check with local authorities regarding transport on public roads. Obey all applicable laws and regulations. • Always travel at a safe speed, never exceeding 15 mph (24 km/hr). Reduce speed on rough surfaces and use caution when turnin g corners or meeting traffic. • Transport auger in full down position with sl ight tension on cable. • Ensure that the wheel drive mo tors are disengaged before towing.

OVER-CENTER DRIVE ASSEMBLY—ROUND AXLES 1. Ensure shims fit on round axle. On some augers, shims are welded to hub; this can be checked by lining up with the tire rim. Shims are normally sized and supplied by the factory for individual augers. 2. Weld fitted sh ims to each axle cap (Figure 3.4). 3. Bolt axle cap axle near wheels, but do not tight en bolts. Use level to ensure axle caps are straight and flush. 4. Bolt the drive assembly on the axle caps. Adjust position until pinion gear is flush with ring gear (Figure 3.5). 5. Weld shims to axle, and weld axle hubs solid. 6. Reassemble the tires. Bolt on the drive clamp with the handle down when the gear is disengaged.

STORAGE SAFETY • Store in an area away from human activity. • Do not permit children to play on or around t he stored machine. 2.6. MAINTENANCE SAFETY • Before applying pressure to a hydrau lic system, make sure all components are tight and that hoses and coupl ings are in good condition. • Relieve pressure from hydraulic circui t before servicing or disconnecting from tractor. • Place stands or blocks under the frame before working beneath the machine. • After maintenance is complete, repl ace and secure all safety guards and safety devices, and if applicable, service doors and cleanout covers. • Remove all tools and unused part s from machine before operation. • Remove buildup of greas e, oil, and debris. • Inspect all parts. Ensure parts are in good condition and in stalled properly. Use only genuine Wheatheart replacement parts or equivalent. Replacement parts must meet ASAE standards or se rious injury may result. Use of unauthorized parts will void the warranty. If in doubt, contact Wheatheart or your Wheatheart dealer. 2.7. HYDRAULIC SAFETY • Always place all hydraulic controls in neutral and relieve system pressure before disconnecting or work ing on hydraulic system. • Keep all components in the hydraulic sys tem tightly secured and in good con- dition and clean. • Replace any worn, cu t, abraded, flattened, or crimped hoses. • Do not attempt any makeshift repairs to the hydraulic fittings or hoses with tape, clamps, or concrete. The hydr aulic system operates under extremely high pressure; such repairs will fail suddenly and create a hazardous and unsafe condition.

UNDERCARRIAGE INSTALLATION Important: Pre-Assembly: When assembling the frame pipes , ram extension, and cylinder under the auger, the components should form a straight li ne from the axle to the ram mount ring when the auger is fully lowered. If th e frame components prevent the transport frame pipes fr om forming a straight lin e, then the fr ame pipes and axle tabs must be mount ed on the auger support arms. 1. Lower the auger completely. 2. Install axle tabs by clam ping (not weldi ng) on axle. 3. Make sure that tabs are square to axle and oriented straight down. 4. Attach transport frame pipes to axle tabs on the auger axle frame as shown in Figure 3.11 using the bolts and locknuts provided. 5. The clevis end of the transport pipe fits inside the clevis on the V-frame. Attach using the bolts and locknuts provided. 6. In the location noted in Figure 3.10, bolt the contro l panel ring to the auger tube approximately 9’ from the intake cage. Do not tighten the bolts yet. Note: The hydraulic ram is normally mounted to a separate ram mount ring, not the control ring (Figure 3.10). The only except ion to this is if t he straight line path from the axle to the tube intersects the control ring. 7. Mount the ram mount ring to the tube as indicat ed ahead of the control ring; refer to Figure 3.10. 8. Connect the fully retrac ted cylinder to the tab on t he ram mount ring and the ram extension. 9. The ram extension slid es into the A-frame atta ched to the tabs on the V- frame as shown in Figure 3.12. The ram extension l ength must be set at the proper distance from the ram mounting A-frame for proper operation of the transport kit. To set t he ram extension length, elevate the V-frame to adequately clear the ground, but not interfere with the auger support arms. 10. Elevate the V-frame, undercarriage pipes, and ram assembly to form a straight line (transport po sition) as shown in Figure 3.10. Tighten the control ring and ram mount ring bolts. 11. If the frame component s prevent the transport fram e pipes from forming a straight line, then the fram e pipes and axle tabs must be mounted on the auger support arms. To do this, slide the ram mount ri ng, cylinder, ram extension, and frame pipes toward the hopper until they form a straight line and can be attached to t he support arms. The transp ort frame pipes should not have to be moved more th an 2’ in most circumstances. 12. Make sure that the tabs are square and oriented straight down before the final welding.

OPERATING PROCEDURE Important: Ensure the over-center handle at each wheel is fully engaged by pushing down on the handle at each w heel and checking that the gears fully mesh (see Section 3.8. for adjustment if necessary). 1. With the engine at idle, use the hydraulic controls (Figure 5.1, and 5.2) to fully lower th e auger with the winch control lever on the valve before moving the auger into position. 2. Raise the auger intake end off the ground using the hydraulic ram control lever on the valve. 3. Move the auger into place by moving the wheel move control forward or backward to control the di rection of travel. Stee ring is accomplished by grasping the handle bar and either leaning in or pu lling away from the auger. Steering is easier if t he auger is in motion. 4. When unloading a bin, aim the auger intake into the bottom of the center of the bin. Use the winch control lever and hydraulic ram control lever to help position the auger. 5. When loading a bin, use the winch control to raise the auger to the desired height. Use the hydraulic ram control to raise the intake of the auger off the ground as the auger is winched up. Turn the wheel move control to change the direction of travel. Leave extra clearanc e for making wide turns. Note: Refer to Section 6.1.1. fo r winch valve kickout adjustm ent, 6.1.4. for cushion valve adjustment, and 6.1.2. for adjustment of the ram speed. CAUTION Do not attempt to move the auger on uneven or hilly terrain. The mo ver will not perform well under these conditions and could damage the machine or injure the operator.
