MAINTENANCE
FUSE REPLACEMENT
The vehicle control harness contains two
automotive-style fuses. The snowplow control and
park/turn power are both covered by a 10A fuse. The
control fuse is "hot" when the vehicle ignition switch is
ON and the electrical connections to the snowplow are
completed.
See the Harness Diagram at the end of this manual for
fuse ratings and locations.
The hydraulic unit harness system contains four
automotive-style mini-fuses. The 2-solenoid coil
harness (to port B on the hydraulic unit module)
contains two 5A mini-fuses. The 7-solenoid coil
harness (to port C on the hydraulic unit module)
contains two 4A mini-fuses.
If a problem should occur and fuse replacement is
necessary, the replacement fuse must be of the same
type and amperage rating as the original. Installing a
fuse with a higher rating can damage the system and
could start a
fi re.
VEHICLE
The snowplow operating vehicle shall be maintained
according to manufacturer's recommendations.
