TORQUE CHART
CAUTION
Read instructions before assembling. Bolts
should be finger tight until instructed to tighten
according to the torque chart. Use standard
methods and practices when attaching
snowplow including wearing safety glasses
during cutting, drilling and welding.
HYDRAULIC SAFETY
• Always inspect hydraulic components and hoses
before using. Replace any damaged or worn parts
immediately.
• If you suspect a hose leak, DO NOT use your
hand to locate it. Use a piece of cardboard or
wood.
WARNING
Hydraulic oil under pressure could cause skin
injection injury. If you are injured by hydraulic
oil, get medical attention immediately.
CAUTION
Do not mix different types of hydraulic fluid.
Some fluids are not compatible and may cause
performance problems and product damage.
BATTERY SAFETY
CAUTION
Always disconnect the battery before removing
or replacing electrical components such as a
motor relay or battery cable.
SAFETY
CAUTION
Batteries normally produce explosive gases
which can cause personal injury. Therefore, do
not allow flames, sparks or lit tobacco to come
near the battery. When charging or working
near a battery, always cover your face and
protect your eyes, and also provide ventilation.
Batteries contain sulfuric acid which burns skin,
eyes and clothing.
Disconnect the battery before removing or
replacing any electrical components.
