Before continuing, ensure you have completely read and understood this manual’s
Safety section, in addition to the safety information in the section(s) below.
This manual is a supplement to the X130 Series Operator Manual. Please ensure that
you have read and understood that manual.
6.1. Maintenance Safety
• Keep components in good condition. Follow the maintenance
procedures.
• Ensure the service area is clean, dry, and has sufficient
lighting.
• Do not modify any components without written authorization
from the manufacturer. Modification can be dangerous and
result in serious injuries.
• Shut down and lock out power before maintaining
equipment.
• After maintenance is complete, replace all guards, service
doors, and/or covers.
• Use only genuine Wheatheart replacement parts or
equivalent. Use of unauthorized parts will void warranty. If in
doubt, contact Wheatheart or your local dealer.
Before attempting maintenance of any kind:
• Lower the X-Tend hopper fully.
• Chock wheels.
• Support tube if performing maintenance on the
undercarriage assembly.
•
If equipped with hydraulics:
Before applying pressure to a
hydraulic system, make sure all components are tight and
that hoses and couplings are in good condition.
6.2. Lubricate the Equipment
Your equipment can operate at top efficiency only if clean fluids and lubricants are used. Use clean containers
to handle all fluids and lubricants. Store them in an area protected from dust, moisture, and other
contaminants.
1. Wipe the grease fittings with a clean cloth before greasing to avoid injecting dirt and grit.
2. Use a hand-held grease gun for all greasing.
3. If fittings will not take grease, remove and clean thoroughly.
4. Replace fittings if they are broken or will not accept grease.
