Gear Lubrication

The surface of the pinion and main gear (Figure 30) should be very lightly greased.

Tires/Wheels/Lug Nuts

Tires and wheels are a very important and critical components of the trailer. When specifying or replacing the trailer wheels it is important the wheels, tires, and axle are properly matched.

WARNING

DO NOT attempt to repair or modify a wheel. DO NOT install an inter-tube to correct a leak through the rim. If the rim is cracked, the air pressure in the inter-tube may cause pieces of the rim to explode (break-off) with great force and can

cause serious eye or bodily injury.

Tires Wear/Inflation

Tire inflation pressure is the most important factor in tire life. Pressure should be checked cold before operation. DO NOT bleed air from tires when they are hot. Check inflation pressure weekly during use to insure the maximum tire life and tread wear.

WARNING

ALWAYS wear safety glasses when removing or installing force fitted parts. Failure to comply may result in serious injury.

Table 7 (Tire Wear Troubleshooting) will help pinpoint the causes and solutions of tire wear problems.

WM70SH8C, WM70SH5C specifications

The Multiquip WM70SH5C and WM70SH8C are cutting-edge water pump models designed for construction and industrial applications. These robust machines are specifically engineered to handle a variety of heavy-duty pumping tasks, making them an essential asset for contractors and industrial operators alike.

The WM70SH5C model is powered by a reliable 5.5 HP Honda engine, while the WM70SH8C variant features an 8 HP Honda engine, providing additional power for demanding applications. Both models are equipped with a high-performance centrifugal pump, ensuring efficient water transfer and quick operation. They are capable of moving large volumes of water, making them suitable for dewatering, irrigation, and other water management tasks.

One of the standout features of the WM70SH series is their impressive maximum flow rate. The pumps can deliver up to 2,000 gallons per minute, significantly reducing the time required for water removal in flooded areas or construction sites. This efficiency is crucial in maintaining project timelines and ensuring safety in work environments.

Durability is another key characteristic of these models. The WM70SH5C and WM70SH8C are built with heavy-duty materials, including a cast iron pump housing and aluminum alloy components, which resist corrosion and ensure a long operational lifespan. Additionally, their rugged construction allows them to withstand harsh working conditions, making them reliable even in the toughest environments.

Ease of use and maintenance is also a priority in the design of these pumps. The WM70SH series features an easy-access maintenance panel that simplifies routine checks and service procedures. The equipped oil alert system helps prevent engine damage by shutting down the engine if the oil level is too low, providing peace of mind for operators.

Both models are designed for portability, with integrated handles and a lightweight frame that facilitate easy transportation. This mobility makes the WM70SH series ideal for contractors who need to move equipment frequently from one job site to another.

In summary, the Multiquip WM70SH5C and WM70SH8C water pumps stand out in the market for their powerful performance, robust construction, and ease of use. They are designed to deliver efficiency, reliability, and durability, making them an excellent choice for any water pumping requirements in construction and industrial applications. With features catering to the demands of heavy-duty tasks, these pumps enhance productivity while ensuring operational safety.
