PRESEASON CHECK
Before the snow season, check your equipment to
make sure that it is in working condition. Here are
some tips for getting your equipment ready:
• Replace worn or damaged parts.
• Check all mounting points and tighten fasteners,
on both snowplow and vehicle. Verify that all
cotter pins are in place.
• Repaint blade assembly and attachments, as
necessary, to protect the metal.
• Install auxiliary and
fl
ashing lights for compliance
and visibility in accordance with local regulations.
• Check vehicle headlamps, auxiliary lights, heater,
and windshield wipers for proper operation.
• Inspect and test your battery. Recharge or replace
as necessary.
• Ballast may be necessary, or bene
fi
cial, on some
vehicles to provide maximum traction, braking,
and handling.
• Any ballast material (such as sand and blocks)
must be solidly secured to the vehicle, preventing
it from moving under harsh plowing conditions.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING
Lower the blade when the vehicle is parked.
Keep 8 feet clear of the blade when it is
being raised, lowered or angled. Temperature
changes could change hydraulic pressure,
causing the blade to drop unexpectedly or
damaging hydraulic components. Failure to
do this could result in serious personal injury.
POSTSEASON MAINTENANCE
NOTE: Coat all electrical connections with
dielectric grease.
• Clean and paint blade and components as
needed.
• Apply general purpose petroleum grease to
exposed chrome surfaces of the rams to prevent
rust.
• Lubricate all pivot points with general purpose
petroleum grease.
