Smooth Stop

Smooth stop, or soft stop, allows the blade to coast 
to a stop when the button/lever is released. The 
result is smoother operation, reduction in shock to 
the hydraulic system, and longer hose and valve life.

While there are advantages to having this feature, 
there are also advantages to temporarily disabling 
it. For example, disabling smooth stop allows 
for more precise movements of the blade while 
operating close to buildings and other obstacles.

All controls come standard with this feature 
ENABLED.

One-Touch FLOAT

One-touch FLOAT immediately activates the 
FLOAT mode and releases the blade to the 
ground, without having to hold the button or lever 
in LOWER. This can improve transition time when 
backing up to plow forward again, eliminating the 
time spent holding the control and waiting for the 
blade to fully drop.

All controls come standard with this feature 
DISABLED.

FLEET FLEX ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Enable/Disable Procedure

To enable/disable the smooth stop and one-touch 
FLOAT features, perform the following steps.

Performing the sequence multiple times will toggle 
the feature between enabled and disabled.

1.  Turn the vehicle ignition switch to the "ON" or 

"ACCESSORY" position. (It is not necessary to 
start the vehicle.)

2.  Verify that the control power indicator is OFF. 

If the power indicator light is red, the control is 
ON. Turn the control OFF.

3. 

Smooth Stop:

 Move and hold the control 

lever to the "R" position or press and hold the 
R button while turning the control ON.

One-Touch FLOAT:

 

Move and hold the 

control lever to the "LOWER" position or press 
and hold the LOWER button while turning the 
control ON.

The power indicator light will turn ON and the 
FLOAT light will 

fl

 ash, indicating the status of 

the feature.
