Fig. 7 Vehicle Side Installation Plowing is very hard on vehicles. For this reason any vehicle getting a plow mounted to it should be well main- tained. Before installing a plow, and on a regular basis after, have the following systems checked and repaired as necessary: •... - Page 7 Vehicle Side Electrical Installation The SnowDogg plow has separate harnesses for Hydraulic and Lighting for ease of installation and trouble- ® shooting. Either harness can be omitted without affecting the functionality of the other system. CAUTION Keep all connectors greased with dielectric grease on a regular basis to minimize corrosion & potential damage or wear to the pins.
