Curl the plow fully forward with the LH control-
ler button. Shift the vehicle transmission into re-
verse and pull snow away from the building.
Raise the plow slightly, then uncurl the blade
with the RH controller button. Push the snow to
a clear area.
Clear large lots by angling the blade and cre-
ating a single path. Roll snow to outer edges
of the lot by taking successive passes with the
blade angled.
When plowing very deep snow, it may be neces-
sary to raise the blade and shear off layers of
snow until a working area is cleared. Work small
areas in multiple passes to push snow to outer
edges. Generally, 6 inch snow can be plowed
with the entire blade width; 9 inch snow with
3/4 of the blade width; 12 inch snow with 1/2 of
the blade width. Local conditions will determine
how much work can be done before stalling or
getting stuck.
DWG NO. 5413
The two lower cutting edges may be bolted to-
gether to function as a single edge, if desired, by
installing a 5/8" grade 5 bolt (not supplied) through
holes in the support plates on the back of the trip
edge sections. The cutting edge will trip harder
when an obstruction is hit when the two sections
are bolted together.
Lower the plow to the ground when parking your
truck for a long period of time with the plow at-
tached. Place the on/off switch in the "Off" position
to prevent the plow from drawing power from the
truck battery. The plow's power unit may continue
to draw electrical current from the truck battery if
the control switch is left on; possibly resulting in
insufficient charge to start the truck.
DWG NO. 5414
To remove the snowplow from your truck, park on
a solid level surface with the blade straight, across
the truck. Lower the plow to the ground and leave
the controller in the "Float" mode.
