9. Should the plow appear to hop when plowing, a reduction in speed is recommended. 10. The DK2 Snow Plow will, by design, trip forward if overloaded or on striking an obstacle buried under the snow. The trip springs will then pull it back to the correct position. - Page 16 OPERATION 11. Before backing up, elevate the plow. 12. Make it a practice to lower the blade to the ground every time the vehicle is parked. 13. Do not leave the plow mounted on the vehicle between uses. It is easy to remove and re-attach.

Page 17: Detaching The Snowplow
OPERATION Drains – Through the season, ensure driveway drains remain clear and unobstructed, allowing snow an escape when it melts and less opportunity to re- freeze. Speed – Plowing requires a safe, manageable speed limit, generally 15 km/h (10 mph). Faster speed reduces your visibility by pushing or blowing snow onto the windshield. -
Page 18: Maintenance
THE PLOW BLADE ROCKS OR TIPS FROM SIDE TO SIDE. z It is normal for the whole assembly to rock back and forth when mounted on a vehicle, with the plow blade moving side to side from 20 to 25 cm (8 to 10 in.) This compensates for differences in terrain between what the plow rides on and what the vehicle is riding on. -
