IMPACT AND MOVING PARTS ENTANGLEMENT HAZARD

Failure to observe these instructions could lead to severe injury or death

•  Always Read the Plow Operator’s Manual, the Winch Operator’s Manual and all warning labels before operating.
•  Always use extreme caution when drilling on any vehicle. Make sure that all fuel lines, brake lines, electrical wires, and other objects are not punctured 

or damaged when/if drilling on the vehicle. Thoroughly inspect the area to be drilled (on both sides of material) prior to drilling, and relocate any objects 

that may be damaged. Failure to inspect the area to be drilled may result in vehicle damage, electrical shock, fire or personal injury.

• 

Always wear safety glasses when installing this kit. A drilling operation will cause flying metal chips. Flying chips can cause eye injury.

• 

Always use extreme caution when cutting and trimming during fitting.

•  Always remove jewelry and wear eye protection.
•  Always use appropriate and adequate care in lifting components into place. 
•  Always insure components will remain secure during installation and operation.
•  Always tighten all nuts and bolts securely, per the installation instructions.
•  Always operate the vehicle at a walking speed with the blade installed. Never exceed 5 mph (8 km/h), even with blade up.
•  Always plow cautiously, impact with hidden or stationary object may cause the vehicle to stop suddenly or go out of control.
•  Never operate the vehicle on slopes greater than 10 degrees with the plow installed.
•  Never stand or ride on the plow.
•  Always stay clear of moving parts and joints. Always keep others away when operating or adjusting plow.
•  Always perform regular inspections and maintenance on the plow mechanism, fasteners, cable and related hardware.
•  Always replace all worn or damaged parts before operating.
•  Never operate this WARN product with damaged or missing parts.
•  Always drive slowly over bumpy and rough terrain. Driving at speeds that cause the plow to bounce while in the up position can cause the winch to back-

drive, causing the plow to work its way down. This may result in the plow impacting a stationary object and cause damage to the vehicle and operator 

injury or death.

•  Always drive at speeds such that the plow does not bounce and be aware of the plow position while driving at all times.
•  Never raise the top of the plow above the headlights of the ATV, as it may damage the vehicle and plow.
