GENERAL DESCRIPTION E-58H unit is an electrically powered and electrically controlled hydraulic mechanism specifically designed for use with Meyer Snow Plows. The E-58H raises and lowers the plow with an integral 8" stroke hydraulic cylinder. In addition to raising and lowering the plow hydraulically, the E-58H angles the plow hydraulically, left and right, via remote hydraulic cylinders.
The basic operating principles of the hydraulic pump Under a condition, such as when a hydraulic used in the E-58H units are quite simple. Figure 1-5 cylinder is extended to the end of its stroke, illustrates the basic components of a positive eliminating additional space for the pressurized displacement gear type pump and their functions.
Cleanliness is perhaps the single most important ingredient in assuring a hydraulic system’s reliability. Should the hydraulic fluid become contaminated, malfunction and permanent damage to the hydraulic system may occur. For this reason, all the E-58H units are equipped with a filter system consisting of: -12-...

Hands-Free Plowing or ALM/ARM Meyer re-branded the ALM/ARM feature on its 22690X controllers to be Hands-Free Plowing (HFP) ™. When activated, the Hands-Free Plowing (HFP) mode uses the vehicle’s shift lever to control the up/down movement of the moldboard. Pressing the HFP button on the controller will toggle you through: On/Off, Back-drag Mode (default mode when active), and Forward Plowing Mode.
