BLADE ANGLE LOCK BARS: (Figure 33)
If angle lock bars DO NOT completely disengage from
slots in pivot plate assembly, adjustment of cable is
required.
ADJUST BLADE SPRINGS: (Figure 33)
To change spring tension, stand in front of blade
assembly and adjust the nuts at the upper end of the
springs. Turn counter clockwise to decrease tension
and clockwise to increase tension.
Adjust spring adjustment nuts approximately 1"
from end when moving snow or other light material.
Keep spring tension light for safety. This frees the
blade to spring trip and return if a hidden obstacle is
encountered.
