Pivot Plates to Lift Frame
Configuration 1 or 2
The snowplow is pre-assembled for configuration 1 or
2. If the lift frame to A-frame assembly needs to be in
either of these configurations, the pivot plates do not
need to be repositioned. Skip to Step 5.
Configuration 3 or 4
If the lift frame to A-frame assembly needs to be in
configuration 3 or 4, the pivot plates must be removed
and repositioned before the A-frame is assembled to
the lift frame.
1. With the lift frame supported, remove and retain
the two 5/8" x 2" carriage bolts and locknuts near
the thrust tube on both sides.
2. Rotate the stand downward and out of the way
until the clearance hole is visible. Remove the
5/8" x 1-1/2" cap screw through the clearance
hole. Retain the cap screw and locknut. Repeat on
the other side.
