Unhook Snow Pusher
DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
•
A crushing hazard exists while hooking-up and unhooking
attachment. Do not allow anyone to stand between
attachment and power machine while approaching or
backing away from the attachment. Do not operate lift and/
or tilt controls while someone is near the power machine
and/or attachment.
•
The Snow Pusher is back heavy and can tip over backward
once unhooked. Always unhook unit on level ground with
support blocks under the skid shoes at the back to tip the
unit forward. Never unhook unit with back of unit facing
downhill.
Refer to Figure 2-1 on page 11:
1. Park tractor and Snow Pusher on a flat, level, solid
surface.
2. Lower Snow Pusher until skid shoes are resting on
support blocks at the back of the unit and on the
ground at the front of the unit to make the unit tip
slightly forward.
3. Shut tractor down properly before dismounting to pull
lock handles up. Refer to “Tractor Shutdown
Procedures” on page 10.
4. Pull lock handles up to remove pins from bottom slots
in hitch plate.
5. Return to the tractor seat. Start tractor and tilt top of
universal quick-attach hitch slightly forward toward
the Snow Pusher.
6. Slowly lower universal quick-attach hitch until hitch
and top angle bars have separated.
7. Back tractor slowly away from Snow Pusher while
making sure the universal quick-attach hitch does not
interfere with the Snow Pusher.
8. Shut tractor down to check overturn stability of the
Snow Pusher. Refer to “Tractor Shutdown
Procedures” on page 10. Make sure the unit will not
tip over backward. If needed, add bracing to keep
unit from overturning.
