TRANSPORTING SNOWPLOW

These instructions are for driving short distances to 
and from plowing jobs. For long trips, remove the 
snowplow from the vehicle, following recommended 
mechanical lifting cautions and procedures.

1.  Completely raise the blade.

2.  Adjust the blade height for maximum vehicle 

headlamp illumination.

3.  Adjust the blade to the straight position.

OPERATING YOUR SNOWPLOW

 WARNING

Position the blade so it does not block the 
vehicle headlamp beam.

 

Do not change blade position while traveling. 
You could suddenly lower blade accidentally.

DRIVING AND PLOWING ON SNOW 
AND ICE

Refer to vehicle owner's manual instructions for 
driving in snow and ice conditions. Remember, when 
you drive on snow or ice, your wheels will not get good 
traction. You cannot accelerate as quickly, turning 
is more di

  cult, and you will need longer braking 

distance.

Wet and hard-packed snow or ice o

 ers the worst 

traction. It is very easy to lose control. You will have 
di

  culty accelerating. If you do get moving, you may 

have poor steering and di

  cult braking, which can 

cause you to slide out of control.

Here are some tips for driving in these conditions:

• Drive defensively.
•  Do not drink, then drive or plow snow.
•  Plow or drive only when you have good visibility 

for operating a vehicle.

•  If you cannot see well due to snow or icy 

conditions, you will need to slow down and keep 
more space between you and other vehicles.

•  Slow down, especially on higher-speed roads. 

Your headlamps can light up only so much road 
ahead.

•  If you are tired, pull o

  in a safe place and rest.

•  Keep your windshield and all glass on your vehicle 

clean to see around you.

•  Dress properly for the weather. Wear layers of 

clothing; as you get warm, you can take o

  layers.

 CAUTION

Transport speed should not exceed vehicle 
manufacturer's recommendations. Further 
reduce speed under adverse travel conditions.

 WARNING

Drinking then driving or plowing is very 
dangerous. Your re

fl

 exes, perceptions, 

attentiveness, and judgment can be a

 ected 

by even a small amount of alcohol. You can 
have a serious or even fatal collision if you 
drive after drinking. Please do not drink and 
then drive or plow.
