WARNING

Always follow the vehicle manufacturers 

recommendations relating to snowplow 

installation. For recommended vehicle models 

refer to the SnowDogg Application Chart and 

Selection Guide.

WARNING

Make sure plow is properly attached before 

moving vehicle.

WARNING

Do not move plow while servicing or place body 

parts between or under plow parts while moving 

plow.

DO NOT change blade position when traveling.

WARNING

DO NOT exceed 40 mph when transporting plow.

WARNING

Do not exceed 10 mph when plowing.

WARNING

Always lower blade when vehicle is not in use.

WARNING

Read this manual carefully before operating this 

snowplow.

CAUTION

Vehicle application recommendations are based 

on the following:
• The vehicle with the snowplow installed must 

comply with the vehicle manufacturer's stated 

gross vehicle and axle weight ratings (found on 

the driver-side door corner post of the vehicle) 

and the front and rear weight distribution ratio. 

In some cases, rear ballast may be required to 

comply with these requirements.
• In some cases there may be additional limita-

tions and requirements.
• Available capacity decreases as the vehicle is 

loaded with cargo or other truck equipment, or 

snowplow accessories are installed.
• If there is uncertainty as to whether available 

capacity exists, the actual vehicle as configured 

must be weighed.
