The OPTIMAL V-plough is intended for the ploughing of snow.
The plough can be used as:
9
A POINTED PLOUGH for conventional ploughing.
9
A Y-PLOUGH for pavements, street crossings and other areas where the collecting and
removing of snow is desirable.
9
A DIAGONAL PLOUGH for the snowploughing of car parks, streets etc.
•
By means of position of the switch at hand unit, the driver chooses which wing to move
(left, right or both in the diagonal mode) a and also commands the hydraulic oil flow via a
double-acting outlet.
•
The V-plough is equipped with two skid shoes which can be set to different heights. Take
care that this skid shoes is clean and can move free. Skid shoes must be levelled to ground
before lowering plough, all to avoid damages on attachment device.
When ploughing in a pointed plough position, don’t drive with the cylinders close to
each other. (The accumulators cease to function if the cylinders are very close to each
other). Avoid running into posts, railings etc. The plough is equipped with a shock valve
that allows oil from the positive side of the cylinder to flow to the accumulator in case of
collision. A collision brings about increased strain on the plough. When the cylinder
reaches its lowest mechanical position there is no collision protection and the plough’s
frame can be damaged.
Be careful not to hit kerbs and traffic islands. The standard plough is supplied with
scraper steels for pavements which reduce the risk of damage to the machine.
NEVER DRIVE THE LOADER IN THE FLOATING POSITION!!
Don’t push the plough down as this puts unnecessary strain
on the implement and increases wear.
NEVER REVERSE WHEN THE PLOUGH IS LOWERED!!
