B REAK -I N P ERIOD & I NITIAL S TART -U P Your Portable Pit does not require an elabor ate break-in. However, following a few simple tips for the firs t 5 hours of operation can add to the reliability and life of your machine. • Follow the service schedule. • Check hydraulic system oil level. • Ensure that all hydraulic lines are fr ee from damage, and t hat all fittings are tight. • Visually inspect the unit for damage to components. Replace or repair any damaged or questionable parts. • Check that all guards are installed, secured, and func tioning as intended. • Check the worksite and clea n up the ar ea, if needed. • Regularly inspect the hydraulic motor mounting bolts for tightness (there are 4 bolts). • Inspect all hydraulic hoses, coup lers, and fittings for tightness. WARNING Be sure to disable or lock out power source before inspecting or servicing machine.

10. 2. S AFETY F IRST W HEATHEART - P ORTABLE D RIVE O VER P IT 2.5. S TORAGE S AFETY 10" & 13" 10 0310005 R0 • Take special care and precautions when transporting during times of limited visibility such as rain, s now, fog, dusk, or at night. It is recomm ended that you wait for a more approp riate time to move. • DO NOT transport faster than 20 mph unless GVWR is mo re than 7000 lb. Never exceed 40 mph. 2.5. STORAGE SAFETY 1. Store in an area away from human activity. 2. Do not permit chil dren to play on or ar ound the 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.
