Snowplow Operation

Snowplow Operation

Your Blizzard Power Plow snowplow is the most advanced and versatile
snowplow on the market. The easy to use controls allow you to automat-
ically adjust the plow blade and wings into an infinite number of plowing
positions. Review the illustrations below to determine the best position for
your plowing needs.

A.

B.

C.

D.

A. Compact Position (8'- 6" Blade Width)

• Primary position when transporting 

the snowplow

• For use in heavy snow conditions with poor 

visibility, initial clearing and tight quarters

Ideal application: Residential driveways, 
small roads

B. WidePass™ Position (11'-3" Blade Width)

• Primary position for clearing large surfaces

• For use in light snow conditions with good 

visibility, final clearing and clean-up

Ideal application: Large parking lots, 
widening roadways

C. BucketBlade™ Position (9'-10" Blade Width)

• Primary position for transporting snow

• For use in initial clearing with decent visibility, 

transporting large volumes of snow, final 
clean-up

Ideal application: Roadway intersections

D. WidePass™  Position Angled with

Wing Forward

• Primary position for accelerated angled plowing

• For use in directional plowing, cornering, 

diverting snow away from objects or buildings

Ideal application: Plowing adjacent to buildings,
driveway /road intersections  

***** IMPORTANT *****

To prevent premature failure of the power 
contactor (solenoid), initiate the plow function
and return the rocker switch and/or joystick to
its neutral or center position. DO NOT hold a
rocker switch and/or joystick in any position
that allows the pump to continuously run
after the main blade or wing has reached its
maximum degree of movement. This will
reduce the useful life of the solenoid.
