Operating Procedures
ATTACHING THE PLOW
Attachment prongs on the truck should be
mounted such that the bottom edge of the
prongs measure about 10 inches above the
ground. Prong receivers on the plow frame
should remain parallel to the ground and at the
correct height by fully retracting the lift cylinder
with the upper lift links before removing the plow
from the truck (See "Removing the Plow") Ide-
ally, the prongs on the truck should lift the plow
frame slightly when driving into the plow for at-
tachment.
Powdered graphite applied on the prongs will
help the plow slide on and off more easily.
Check that prongs are in line with the receiv-
ers before driving into the plow. Set the parking
brake in the truck to prevent it from creeping
back out from the receivers.
Remove the tab lock pin from the parking stand
index plate to raise the stand to its highest posi-
tion. Reinstall the pin in the plate for transport.
Pull the latch handle into the clevis on the lift
frame to force the sliders through the notches
in the prongs and receivers. Check that both
sliders are fully engaged.

Handle Pinned With Plow On Truck

Failure to pin the handle in place may allow
the plow to fall off the truck.

the truck, make sure power is switched "Off"
on the joystick controller.
Alignment Tab and Slot
Plug in the two electrical connectors between
the plow and the truck after latching the plow.
The alignment tab on the 16-pin plug will
mate with the slot on the mating receptacle to
ensure proper connection.
