TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

TROUBLESHOOTING TABLES

Before using the following troubleshooting tables, or performing any tests, you must verify the following conditions:

1. Snowplow is attached to vehicle

and all harnesses are connected.

2. Harness connector pins and

terminals are free of corrosion,
ensuring good connections, and
coated with dielectric grease.

3. Vehicle battery and charging

system are in good condition and
battery connections are clean
and tight.

4. Hydraulic reservoir is filled to

proper level with recommended
fluid when plow is in "vee"
position and lift ram is fully
retracted. See Product
Specifications.

5. There are no fluid leaks from

hoses, fittings, rams, or the
hydraulic unit.

6. All built-up snow and ice is

removed from the snowplow.

7. Vehicle control harness wires are

correctly installed in the 14-pin
connector, located in the cab.

8. 10-amp fuse in vehicle control

harness is good.

9. Ignition is turned on or engine is

running.

10. The control is connected in the

cab and turned on.

NOTE: Do not use a straight blade
control with the adapter cable for
these tests.

CAUTION

Do not mix different types of
hydraulic fluid. Some fluids are
not compatible and may cause
performance problems and
product damage.

CAUTION

Fill the reservoir to the fill level
only. Do not overfill. Overfilling
could damage the unit.
