WARNING:
Do not get under the unit while operating or
performing any maintenance on your Sno
Pusher. Take precautions to properly secure
unit. Do not rely solely upon the hydraulics of
your machine.
OPERATING THE SNO PUSHER
To ensure your Sno Pusher will provide you with
years of service with minimal maintenance follow
these simple instructions:
1. Once the Sno Pusher is properly
attached to your machine it MUST be
leveled BEFORE plowing.
2. To level the Sno Pusher set it down and
adjust the curl of your bucket, make sure
that BOTH wear shoes are resting
squarely on the plowing surface. In
addition, Pro-Tech also sells a level
gauge and self-leveling shoes that assist
in keeping the Sno Pusher level.
3. To ensure proper surface contact drive
the machine forward approximately 20
feet, check plowed surface under the
machine to ensure that plowed area is
clean. If the plowed area is not
completely clear, you can loosen the
tension of the binder(s) to allow your Sno
Pusher to vertically adjust for maximum
surface contact.
IMPORTANT: Binders must be properly
tightened prior to transportation or high
speed use for ISL and ISB models.
4. Do not apply excessive down force to the
Sno Pusher while plowing. This will
considerably shorten the life of your wear
shoes and cutting edge. This is NOT
necessary for proper plowing.
5.
Do not
operate your machine in the float
position. The Sno Pusher’s steel trip
mechanism is designed for use with the
bucket NOT in float. If used in float, the Sno
Pusher may not trip properly over obstacles
and could result in damage to the pusher
and/or the plowing surface.
6.
When a cutting edge(s) does trip, it must be
reset. To accomplish this, simply lift the Sno
Pusher off the plowing surface allowing the
cutting edges to return them to pre-trip
position and then place the unit back on the
ground.
