Transporting
WARNING
Operating or towing a machine with worn, damaged or
missing parts can result in death or serious injury. Always
replace worn, damaged or missing parts promptly. Do not
operate or tow this machine until all worn, damaged or
missing parts have been replaced, and proper operation of
the machine has been verified.
Pre-Transport Check List
1. Check that the operator’s manuals are with the heater
trailer, in the manual storage container.
2. Check that all safety decals are legible and in place on
the heater trailer. See “Safety Decals” in the Safety sec-
tion of this manual.
3. Check the heater trailer for proper operation:
a. Use an appropriate means to safely support the trailer
tongue. Check that the tongue jack operates properly,
and that the jack lock pin can be locked in the trans-
port position as well as the trailer support position.
See “Operating The Tongue Jack”.
b. Check that the trailer coupler operates properly, and
that the combination trailer coupler / lunette eye is
securely fastened to the heater trailer tongue. See
“Using The Trailer Coupler” and “Combination Trailer
Coupler And Lunette Eye”.
c. Check that the safety chains are properly secured to
the heater trailer tongue, and check the safety chains
and hooks for damage. Replace damaged safety
chains and hooks.
d. Check the trailer lighting connector for damage, and
the trailer lighting wires for damage. Replace or repair
damaged lighting connector or wiring.
e. Check the break-away trailer brake system, and make
sure the break-away brake system battery is fully
charged. See “Break-Away Brake System”.
f. Check the condition and inflation pressure of the tires.
See “Checking the Tire Pressure” in the Maintenance
section.
WARNING
Towing a trailer with worn, damaged or underinflated tires
could result in death or serious injury. Always replace worn
or damaged tires promptly. Always keep tires inflated to
proper cold tire inflation pressure.
4. Check that the ground rod is with the machine. Check
ground rod cable and the grounding lug on the chassis to
make sure they are clean and undamaged. Check that
there is continuity between:
a. The ground lug and the generator ground. (On some
models, the ground lug is connected to the heater
breaker box.)
b. The ground rod and the eyelet connector on the
ground rod cable.
5. Check the engine oil level and add as necessary. See
“Engine Oil” in the Maintenance section.
6. Check the engine cooling system and add as necessary.
Make sure that the coolant overflow bottle is at least half
full of coolant. See “Engine Coolant” in the Maintenance
section.
7. Check the air filter for damage and replace as necessary.
Check the engine air intake system and make sure all
connections are air tight.
8. Check the battery for adequate charge. The heater
trailer is equipped from the factory with a 12 volt bat-
tery. Use a 12 volt battery charger to bring the battery
back to full charge. See “Maintaining the Battery” in the
Maintenance section.
9. If the trailer was stored with the battery disconnected,
reconnect the battery, negative (-) cable last.
