VI. B. Operating the plow
•
Press IN on the switch to lift the plow, press OUT
on the switch to lower the plow.
•
Avoid lifting the plow to the point it stalls against
the vehicle. Doing so will cause excessive cable
wear and may potentially damage the plow
system.
•
To angle the plow blade, turn off the vehicle and
set the parking brake on lever ground. Walk to
the front of the plow blade and pull the red handle
toward the blade. Pull on the edge of the plow
that you want the blade to rotate to. Release the
red lever and rotate the blade until the lever locks
the blade into position. If you are having trouble
rotating the blade on the ground, lift the blade an
inch off the ground before rotating.
•
WARN tells customers not to drive vehicles above
5 mph (8 km/h) with a plow installed. Risk of
vehicular damage and bodily injury increases with
speed.
•
NEVER operate the plow or winch with persons
near the plow blade, winch, or vehicle.
VI. C. Removing the plow from the vehicle
9.
Drive to an area with level solid ground. Turn off
the vehicle, set the parking brake, and walk over
to the plow support.
10. Remove the winch hook from the quicklink on the
plow base. Route the cable over the roller on the
plow support and drape hook and cable over
bumper tube. Do not hook to vehicle bumper.
See Figure 43.
11. Remove the detent pin for one of the stands.
Drop the stand feet flush onto the ground. The
latch should drop disengaging the support. If the
latch does not drop, pull on the lanyard cable
while lifting on the plow support. Place the detent
pin back in one of the two holes on the side of the
plow support retainer plate. You may have to lift a
side of the support slightly to get it into a hole.
12. Repeat the previous step on the other side. Place
the detent pin in the same location in the stand as
the other side.
13. Walk back to the vehicle and turn it on. SLOWLY
backup the vehicle in a straight line until it is clear
of the plow support and blade. Plow removal is
complete.
