Have an awesome weekend!
Every time the breaker opens and closes the arcing will burn the contacts a little. The more it trips, the worse it burns as can be seen by my pic in post #24. But without the hydraulic pump connected, the current would be far less. And the 50 amp breaker is unlikely to continue to trip with that load removed, assuming it is not damaged too much.

I would also do as you plan.
