MAINTENANCE
The SnowDogg line of plows has been simply designed for reliable service. In order to ensure the
reliability of your plow, observe the following maintenance items and regularly inspect:
• Fasteners and retaining devices for proper installation and tightness.
• Hydraulic cylinders for damage, pitting or leakage
• Hydraulic hoses for wear, damage or leakage. Replace any damaged hose.
• All electrical connections for corrosion – apply dielectric grease as required
• Cutting edge wear
• Plow shoe wear
• Greasable fittings (2x trip pins and king pin)
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
• All SnowDogg plows use SnowDogg brand Low-Temperature Hydraulic Fluid (P/N 16150010) available from
SnowDogg dealers.
• The reservoir should be filled through to top port until oil reaches the top port.
• Recheck and tighten all fittings and valves every season or as necessary. Vibration due to normal use can
cause fittings to loosen.
• Loctite or Teflon tape should not be used on any fittings or hoses. The only plugs where pipe sealant may be
used are the reservoir plugs.
• The reservoir should be drained and refilled every season to ensure that the oil remains free of water and
contanimants. If contaminants are known to be present, it is recommended that the reservoir be removed and
cleaned.
With proper maintenance and care your SnowDogg plow will provide years of trouble free service!
