Warning: Before continuing, please reread the safety information relevant to this section at the
beginning of this manual. Failure to follow the safety instructions can result in serious injury,
death, or property damage.
ALL MODELS 1.1. HYDRAULIC HOSE INSTALLATION
1.Assembly
The In-Bin Sweep kit consists of (see Figure 1.1):
1. motor
2. motor coupler
3. relief valve
4. 2-16’ hoses
5. In-Bin pivot assembly
6. straight section with a walking shoe
7. three plain straight sections
8. 1-15” section
9. In–Bin Tower
Figure 1.1 In-Bin Super Sweep Kit (Total 11’3” Flighting in Kit)
1.1. HYDRAULIC HOSE INSTALLATION
1. Connect hydraulic hoses between orbit motor and relief valve.
2. Quick couplers may be used on pressure “P” and return (“T” for tank) fittings
of the relief valve.
Note: System requires a minimum hydraulic source of 8 gpm at 1200 psi (see Figure
1.2 and 1.3).

1. ASSEMBLY WHEATHEART - IN-BIN SUPER SWEEP
1.2. RELIEF VALVE INSTALLATION ALL MODELS
Figure 1.2 Schematic Drawing
Figure 1.3 Relief Valve
1.2. RELIEF VALVE INSTALLATION
1. The “P” on the relief valve must be connected to the “out” side of the pump
(see Figure 1.2 and 1.3) or directly to the “Pressure” source if using a remote
hydraulic source.
2. The “T” return or “tank” must be connected to the t ank or reservoir of the Bin
Sweep.
DANGER
Ensure that the return is connected to the tank
or reservoir of the Bin Sweep.
If it is not, the relief valve will not kick out and
serious injury or death can occur to the
operator.
3. If the motor turns the wrong way, first verify that the pressure and tank are
right, then try again. If motor still turns the wrong way, cross hydraulic lines
between valve and motor.

WHEATHEART - IN-BIN SUPER SWEEP 1. ASSEMBLY
ALL MODELS 1.3. ASSEMBLY
1.3. ASSEMBLY
1. Mount tower over opening in floor and in the center of the bin.
2. Remove hairpin and slide pivot assembly down pivot shaft until it rests on the
collar. Mount motor to pivot assembly with 3/8” bolts.
3. Attach special motor coupler to hydraulic motor and then a straight bin sweep
section pinning in place. Add on extra straight sections as needed with the
last long section having the walking shoe. Add the 15” section to the end,
space permitting.
4. Make sure all sections are fully interlocked. The pins on the backboards fit
into the hole of the next section and the flighting sections line up to form one
continuous auger when twisted into place. (The welded finger on the end of
one section of flighting wraps around the spoke on the stationary wheel of the
next section.) (See Figure 1.4 and 1.5.)

Figure 1.5 Flighting and Backboard Assembly
5. Adjust collar until pivot assembly holds the first sweep section of flighting
about 1/8” off the floor (this is level).
6. The pivot assembly can be adjusted up to 10” horizontally in four different
positions by means of the two welded pegs and the welded cross pipes,
which can be swiveled 180°.
Note: In severe cases, extra walking shoes can be added to outer sections to prevent
tipping.
1.4. WHEEL MOVE OPTION
1. Assemble on flat surface.
2. Slide the outermost Supersweep backboard over the drivewheel alignment
pin and driveshaft.
3. Insert the hairpin to prevent the backboard from sliding back.
4. Place the backboard locking bracket against backboard and over the
backboard mount bracket.
5. Mark and drill the hole locations for bolting or welding the locking bracket to
the backboard.

WHEATHEART - IN-BIN SUPER SWEEP 2. OPERATION
Warning: Before continuing, please reread the safety information relevant to this section at the
beginning of this manual. Failure to follow the safety instructions can result in serious injury,
death, or property damage.
ALL MODELS
2.Operation
Important: The Super Sweep is an aggressive bin sweep, and when starting the sweep in
an in-bin situation, you must slowly lower the flighting down to the floor manually
with the backboard handle or the sweep will bury itself down into the grain,
kicking out the relief valve and shutting itself off. If this should occur, you will
have to dig the unit out by shovel.
NOTICE
Pulling the bin sweep out of buried grain by force could
damage flighting or alignment.
• The collar may have to be adjusted so the Super Sweep runs level. Too high
or too low will slow down the Super Sweep (see Figure 1.4).
• The rubber kicker on each section’s stationary wheel is adjustable – the further out, the more it drives the sweep forward into the pile. The kicker is
adjusted by placing or removing washers between the plate and the kicker
(see Figure 2.1).
Note: Do not adjust the kicker too far out as it will cause excessive wear on the kicker
and rough sweep operation.
In case of drag on bin sweep sections, check for build up of material around
bushings (ice, mud, etc.) or misalignment of welded bushing strut.
Some operators prefer to let the bin sweep run twice to reduce the center pile for
easier cleanup.
