Check Shear Mounts
Check shear mounts for wear every 100 hours.

is important to compress the shear mounts with
the washers to prevent the shear mount from
tearing.

Test upper and lower connector pivots every 100
hours.
To test upper pivot:
1. Lower plow to ground.

visually check joints for motion. If motion is
observed, contact your Ditch Witch
