1.2 Machine Description and Intended Use
The HIF series heaters are flameless air heaters. The machine consists of the following components:

Recirculated air or outside air (depending on the application) is pulled in by the engine fan through the exhaust heat exchanger and engine radiator. The clean, dry, warm air is heated further by pulling it through the engine compartment and past the heat plate. Finally, the warmed air is heated to its maximum temperature by pulling it through the primary exhaust exchanger and heat plate radiator. The heated air is then pushed out of the machine by the engine fan.

The HIF series heaters are intended to provide heat on outdoor sites and in other rugged applications. Do not use these machines indoors.

This machine has been designed and built strictly for the intended use described above. Using the machine for any other purpose could permanently damage the machine or seriously injure the operator or other persons on the work site. Machine damage caused by misuse is not covered under warranty.

This machine has been designed and built in accordance with the latest global safety standards. It has been carefully engineered to eliminate hazards as far as practicable, and to increase operator safety through protective guards and labeling. However, some risks may remain even after protective measures have been taken. They are called residual risks. On this machine, they may include exposure to:

4.12 Running the Machine
Background The Wacker Neuson Flameless Heaters are designed to safely provide heat without open flames. Ambient conditions will affect machine performance factors in many ways. To obtain maximum efficiency, the application area conditions must be considered along with the desired effect. Use the informatin and guidelines below to adjust machine parameters in order to obtain maximum system efficiency and to avoid unnecessary down-time.

Overheat shutdown

If the engine is not warmed up properly, the CALFLO™ AF could become hotter than the set-point temperature before the louvers can open to cool the system. This will result in a machine shutdown.

To avoid this situation, allow the engine to warm up sufficiently before increasing rpm. See topic Preliminary Checks.

Typical settings

Most application areas will be efficiently heated using a 170°F (76°C) setpoint. Be sure to allow a proper engine warm-up period before setting the temperature controller. See topic Preliminary Checks.


DANGERCarbon monoxide. Using the machine indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES. Exhaust gas contains carbon monoxide (CO). This is a deadly poison you cannot see or smell. If you can smell the exhaust, you are breathing CO. Even if you cannot smell the exhaust, you could be breathing CO.

NEVER operate the machine inside an enclosed area, such as a home, tunnel, or garage. ONLY use the machine outside and far away from windows, doors, and vents. These openings can pull in exhaust.ALWAYS use a battery-powered or battery-backup CO alarm in nearby struc-tures. Even when you use the machine correctly, CO may leak into nearby structures. If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after the machine has been running, move to fresh air IMMEDIATELY. See a doctor. You could have carbon monoxide poison.

wc_tx003356gb.fm40

HIF 1200 Operation
Guidelines Observe all safety guidelines and instructions in the Operator’s Manual.Do not use engine rpm to adjust output temperature.Keep all doors and panels closed during operation.Use approved Wacker Neuson duct adapters and ducts.

System efficiency

Refer to the examples below to determine the settings that will acheive maximum efficiency while running your machine.

Setting the temperature

Setting the temperature will control the louvers on the air intake end of the machine. As the system heats up, the louvers automatically adjust to control airflow and system temperature.

Perform the procedure below to set the temperature.

1. Start the engine. See Starting the Engine.

2. Allow engine to warm up. See Preliminary Checks.

3. Increase engine rpm.Minimum running speed:1,800 rpm Maximum running speed: 2,500 rpm.

4. Use the dial on the temperature controller to set to the desired output temperature.

Maximum output temperature: 250°F (121°C).

Engine rpm Engine rpm is a relevant factor for machine performance and efficiency. The user can choose the rpm setting for operation. Adjusting rpm alone will have the follwing effects.

Running at higher rpm will:increase fuel usage speed up temperature riseincrease airflow

Running at lower rpm will: decrease fuel usage slow down temperature rise decrease airflow

5.7 Storing the Machine
Introduction Extended storage of equipment requires preventive maintenance. Performing these steps helps to preserve machine components and ensures the machine will be ready for future use. While not all of these steps necessarily apply to this machine, the basic procedures remain the same.

When Prepare your machine for extended storage if it will not be operated for 30 days or more.

Preparing for storage

Follow the procedures below to prepare your machine for storage.Complete any needed repairs.Replenish or change oils (engine, exciter, hydraulic, and gearcase) per the intervals specified in the Scheduled Maintenance table. Grease all fittings and, if applicable, repack bearings.Inspect engine coolant. Replace coolant if it appears cloudy, is more than two seasons old, or does not meet the average lowest temperature for your area.If your machine has an engine equipped with a fuel valve, start the engine, close the fuel valve, and run the engine until it stops.Consult the engine owner’s manual for instructions on preparing the engine for storage.

Stabilizing the fuel

After completing the procedures listed above, fill the fuel tank completely and add a high-quality stabilizer to the fuel.

Choose a stabilizer that includes cleaning agents and additives designed to coat/protect the cylinder walls.Make sure the stabilizer you use is compatible with the fuel in your area, fuel type, grade and temperature range. Do not add extra alcohol to fuels which already contain it (for example, E10).For engines with diesel fuel, use a stabilizer with a biocide to restrict or prevent bacteria and fungus growth.Add the correct amount of stabilizer per the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Storing the machine

Perform these remaining steps to store your machine.Wash the machine and allow it to dry.Move the machine to a clean, dry, secure storage location. Block or chock wheels to prevent machine movement.Use touch-up paint as needed to protect exposed metal against rust. If the machine has a battery, either remove or disconnect it.

NOTICE: Allowing the battery to freeze or completely discharge is likely to cause permanent damage. Periodically charge the battery while the machine is not in use. In cold climates, store and charge the battery indoors or in a warm location.

Cover the machine. Tires and other exposed rubber items should be protected from the weather. Either cover them or use a readily available protectant.

1.1. STEPS FOR DETERMINING CORRECT LOAD LIMIT TRAILER

Determining the load limits of a trailer includes more than understanding the load limits of the tires alone. On all trailersthere is a Federal certification/VIN label that is located on the forward half of the left (road) side of the unit. This

loaded trailer can weigh. It will also provide the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). This is the most a particular axle can weigh. If there are multiple axles, the GAWR of each axle will be provided.

If your trailer has a GVWR of 10,000 pounds or less, there is a vehicle placard located in the same location as the certification label described above. This placard provides tire and loading information. In addition, this placard will show a statement regarding maximum cargo capacity. Cargo can be added to the trailer, up to the maximum weight specified onthe placard. The combined weight of the cargo is provided as a single number. In any case, remember: the total weight of a fully loaded trailer can not exceed the stated GVWR.

For trailers with living quarters installed, the weight of water and propane also need to be considered. The weight of fully filled propane containers is considered part of the weight of the trailer before it is loaded with cargo, and is not consideredpart of the disposable cargo load. Water however, is a disposable cargo weight and is treated as such. If there is a fresh water storage tank of 100 gallons, this tank when filled would weigh about 800 pounds. If more cargo is being transported, water can be off-loaded to keep the total amount of cargo added to the vehicle within the limits of the GVWR so as not to overload the vehicle. Understanding this flexibility will allow you, the owner, to make choices that fit your travel needs.

When loading your cargo, be sure it is distributed evenly to prevent overloading front to back and side to side. Heavy items should be placed low and as close to the axle positions as reasonable. Too many items on one side may overload a tire. The best way to know the actual weight of the vehicle is to weigh it at a public scale. Talk to your dealer to discuss the weighing methods needed to capture the various weights related to the trailer. This would include the weight empty or unloaded, weights per axle, wheel, hitch or king-pin, and total weight.


Excessive loads and/or underinflation cause tire overloading and, as a result, abnormal tire flexing occurs. This situation can generate an excessive amount of heat within the tire. Excessive heat may lead to tire failure. It is the air pressure that enables a tire to support the load, so proper inflation is critical. The proper air pressure may be found on the certification/VIN label and/or on the Tire Placard. This value should never exceed the maximum cold inflation pressure stamped on the tire.

1.4. TIRE SAFETY - EVERYTHING RIDES ON IT

The National Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has published a brochure (DOT HS 809 361) that discusses all aspects of Tire Safety, as required by CFR 575.6. This brochure is reproduced in part below. It can be obtained and downloaded from NHTSA, free of charge, from the following web site:

http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/rules/TireSafety/ridesonit/tires_index.html

Studies of tire safety show that maintaining proper tire pressure, observing tire and vehicle load limits (not carrying more weight in your vehicle than your tires or vehicle can safely handle), avoiding road hazards, and inspecting tires for cuts, slashes, and other irregularities are the most important things you can do to avoid tire failure, such as tread separation or blowout and flat tires. These actions, along with other care and maintenance activities, can also:

Improve vehicle handling Help protect you and others from avoidable breakdowns and accidents Improve fuel economy Increase the life of your tires.

This booklet presents a comprehensive overview of tire safety, including information on the following topics:Basic tire maintenance Uniform Tire Quality Grading System Fundamental characteristics of tires


y p

Use this information to make tire safety a regular part of your vehicle maintenance routine. Recognize that the time you spend is minimal compared with the inconvenience and safety consequences of a flat tire or other tire failure.

1.5. SAFETY FIRST BASIC TIRE MAINTENANCE

Properly maintained tires improve the steering, stopping, traction, and load-carrying capability of your vehicle. Underinflated tires and overloaded vehicles are a major cause of tire failure. Therefore, as mentioned above, to avoid flat tires and other types of tire failure, you should maintain proper tire pressure, observe tire and vehicle load limits, avoid road hazards, and regularly inspect your tires.

1.5.1. FINDING YOUR VEHICLE'S RECOMMENDED TIRE PRESSURE AND LOAD LIMITS

Tire information placards and vehicle certification labels contain information on tires and load limits. These labels indicate the vehicle manufacturer's information including:

Recommended tire size Recommended tire inflation pressure Vehicle capacity weight (VCW the maximum occupant and cargo weight a vehicle is designed to carry) Front and rear gross axle weight ratings (GAWR the maximum weight the axle systems are designed to carry).

Both placards and certification labels are permanently attached to the trailer near the left front.

1.5.2. UNDERSTANDING TIRE PRESSURE AND LOAD LIMITS

Tire inflation pressure is the level of air in the tire that provides it with load-carrying capacity and affects the overall performance of the vehicle. The tire inflation pressure is a number that indicates the amount of air pressure measured in pounds per square inch (psi) a tire requires to be properly inflated. (You will also find this number on the vehicle information placard expressed in kilopascals (kpa), which is the metric measure used internationally.)

Manufacturers of passenger vehicles and light trucks determine this number based on the vehicle's design load limit, that is, the greatest amount of weight a vehicle can safely carry and the vehicle's tire size. The proper tire pressure for your vehicle is referred to as the "recommended cold inflation pressure." (As you will read below, it is difficult to obtain the recommended tire pressure if your tires are not cold.)Because tires are designed to be used on more than one type of vehicle, tire manufacturers list the "maximum permissible inflation pressure" on the tire sidewall. This number is the greatest amount of air pressure that should ever be put in the tire under normal driving conditions.

1.5.3. CHECKING TIRE PRESSURE

It is important to check your vehicle's tire pressure at least once a month for the following reasons:

Most tires may naturally lose air over time. Tires can lose air suddenly if you drive over a pothole or other object or if you strike the curb when parking. With radial tires, it is usually not possible to determine underinflation by visual inspection.

For convenience, purchase a tire pressure gauge to keep in your vehicle. Gauges can be purchased at tire dealerships, auto supply stores, and other retail outlets. The recommended tire inflation pressure that vehicle manufacturers provide reflects the proper psi when a tire is cold. The term cold does not relate to the outside temperature. Rather, a cold tire is one that has not been driven on for at least three hours. When you drive, your tires get warmer, causing the air pressure within them to increase. Therefore, to get an accurate tire pressure reading, you must measure tire pressure when the tires are cold or compensate for the extra pressure in warm tires.


1.5.4. STEPS FOR MAINTAINING PROPER TIRE PRESSURE

Step 1: Locate the recommended tire pressure on the vehicle's tire information placard, certification label, or in the owner's manual. Step 2: Record the tire pressure of all tires. Step 3: If the tire pressure is too high in any of the tires, slowly release air by gently pressing on the tire valve stem with the edge of your tire gauge until you get to the correct pressure. Step 4: If the tire pressure is too low, note the difference between the measured tire pressure and the correct tire pressure. These "missing" pounds of pressure are what you will need to add. Step 5: At a service station, add the missing pounds of air pressure to each tire that is underinflated. Step 6: Check all the tires to make sure they have the same air pressure (except in cases in which the front and rear tires are supposed to have different amounts of pressure).

If you have been driving your vehicle and think that a tire is underinflated, fill it to the recommended cold inflation pressure indicated on your vehicle's tire information placard or certification label. While your tire may still be slightly underinflated due to the extra pounds of pressure in the warm tire, it is safer to drive with air pressure that is slightly lower than the vehicle manufacturer's recommended cold inflation pressure than to drive with a significantly underinflated tire. Since this is a temporary fix, don't forget to recheck and adjust the tire's pressure when you can obtain a cold reading.

1.5.5. TIRE SIZE

To maintain tire safety, purchase new tires that are the same size as the vehicle's original tires or another size recommended by the manufacturer. Look at the tire information placard, the owner's manual, or the sidewall of the tire you are replacing to find this information. If you have any doubt about the correct size to choose, consult with the tire dealer.

1.5.6. TIRE TREAD

The tire tread provides the gripping action and traction that prevent your vehicle from slipping or sliding, especially when the road is wet or icy. In general, tires are not safe and should be replaced when the tread is worn down to 1/16 of an inch. Tires have built-in treadwear indicators that let you know when it is time to replace your tires. These indicators are raised sections spaced intermittently in the bottom of the tread grooves. When they appear "even" with the outside of the tread, it is time to replace your tires. Another methodfor checking tread depth is to place a penny in the tread with Lincoln's head upside down and facing you. If you can see the top of Lincoln's head, you are ready for new tires.

1.5.7. TIRE BALANCE AND WHEEL ALIGNMENT

To avoid vibration or shaking of the vehicle when a tire rotates, the tire must be properly balanced. This balance is achieved by positioning weights on the wheel to counterbalance heavy spots on the wheel-and-tire assembly. A wheel alignment adjusts the angles of the wheels so that they are positioned correctly relative to the vehicle's frame. This adjustment maximizes the life of your tires. These adjustments require special equipment and should be performed by a qualified technician.

1.5.8. TIRE REPAIR

The proper repair of a punctured tire requires a plug for the hole and a patch for the area inside the tire that surrounds the puncture hole. Punctures through the tread can be repaired if they are not too large, but punctures to the sidewall should not be repaired. Tires must be removed from the rim to be properly inspected before being plugged and patched.

1.5.9. TIRE FUNDAMENTALS

Federal law requires tire manufacturers to place standardized information on the sidewall of all tires. This information identifies and describes the fundamental characteristics of the tire and also provides a tire identification number for safety standard certification and in case of a recall.


1.5.9.1. Information on Passenger Vehicle Tires

Please refer to the diagram below.

PThe "P" indicates the tire is for passenger vehicles.

Next numberThis three-digit number gives the width in millimeters of the tire from sidewall edge to sidewall edge. In general, the larger the number, the wider the tire.

Next numberThis two-digit number, known as the aspect ratio, gives the tire's ratio of height to width. Numbers of 70 or lower indicate a short sidewall for improved steering response and better overall handling on dry pavement.

RThe "R" stands for radial. Radial ply construction of tires has been the industry standard for the past 20 years.

Next numberThis two-digit number is the wheel or rim diameter in inches. If you change your wheel size, you will have to purchase new tires to match the new wheel diameter.

Next numberThis two- or three-digit number is the tire's load index. It is a measurement of how much weight each tire can support. You may find this information in your owner's manual. If not, contact a local tire dealer. Note: You maynot find this information on all tires because it is not required by law.

M+SThe "M+S" or "M/S" indicates that the tire has some mud and snow capability. Most radial tires have these markings; hence, they have some mud and snow capability.

Speed RatingThe speed rating denotes the speed at which a tire is designed to be driven for extended periods of time. The ratings range from 99 miles per hour (mph) to 186 mph. These ratings are listed below. Note: You may not find this information on all tires because it is not required by law.


Letter Rating Speed RatingQ 99 mphR 106 mphS 112 mphT 118 mphU 124 mphH 130 mphV 149 mphW 168* mphY 186* mph

* For tires with a maximum speed capability over 149 mph, tire manufacturers sometimes use the letters ZR. For those with a maximum speed capability over 186 mph, tire manufacturers always use the letters ZR.

U.S. DOT Tire Identification NumberThis begins with the letters "DOT" and indicates that the tire meets all federal standards. The next two numbers or letters are the plant code where it was manufactured, and the last four numbers represent the week and year the tire was built. For example, the numbers 3197 means the 31st week of 1997. The other numbers are marketing codes used at the manufacturer's discretion. This information is used to contact consumers if a tire defect requires a recall.

Tire Ply Composition and Materials UsedThe number of plies indicates the number of layers of rubber-coated fabric in the tire. In general, the greater the number of plies, the more weight a tire can support. Tire manufacturers also must indicate the materials in the tire, which include steel, nylon, polyester, and others.

Maximum Load RatingThis number indicates the maximum load in kilograms and pounds that can be carried by the tire.

Maximum Permissible Inflation PressureThis number is the greatest amount of air pressure that should ever be put in the tire under normal driving conditions.

1.5.9.2. UTQGS Information

Treadwear NumberThis number indicates the tire's wear rate. The higher the treadwear number is, the longer it should take for thetread to wear down. For example, a tire graded 400 should last twice as long as a tire graded 200.

Traction LetterThis letter indicates a tire's ability to stop on wet pavement. A higher graded tire should allow you to stop your car on wet roads in a shorter distance than a tire with a lower grade. Traction is graded from highest to lowest as "AA","A", "B", and "C".

Temperature LetterThis letter indicates a tire's resistance to heat. The temperature grade is for a tire that is inflated properly andnot overloaded. Excessive speed, underinflation or excessive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat build-up and possible tire failure. From highest to lowest, a tire's resistance to heat is graded as "A", "B", or "C".

g
Please refer to the following diagram.

Tires for light trucks have other markings besides those found on the sidewalls of passenger tires.

LTThe "LT" indicates the tire is for light trucks or trailers.

STAn "ST" is an indication the tire is for trailer use only.

Max. Load Dual kg (lbs) at kPa (psi) ColdThis information indicates the maximum load and tire pressure when the tire is used as a dual, that is, when four tires are put on each rear axle (a total of six or more tires on the vehicle).

Max. Load Single kg (lbs) at kPa (psi) ColdThis information indicates the maximum load and tire pressure when the tire is used as a single.

Load RangeThis information identifies the tire's load-carrying capabilities and its inflation limits.

1.6. TIRE SAFETY TIPS

Preventing Tire Damage

Slow down if you have to go over a pothole or other object in the road.Do not run over curbs or other foreign objects in the roadway, and try not to strike the curb when parking.

Tire Safety Checklist

Check tire pressure regularly (at least once a month), including the spare.Inspect tires for uneven wear patterns on the tread, cracks, foreign objects, or other signs of wear or trauma.Remove bits of glass and foreign objects wedged in the tread.Make sure your tire valves have valve caps.Check tire pressure before going on a long trip.Do not overload your vehicle. Check the Tire Information and Loading Placard or for the maximum recommended load for the vehicle.
