Safety

Preparation

Read the

Owner’s Manual

before operating or

servicing the plow.

Always follow the vehicle manufacturer’s
recommendations relating to snowplow
installation. For recommended vehicle models,
refer to the BOSS product selector tool at

www.BOSSPlow.com

.

Ensure that only trained personnel install and
perform maintenance on the equipment and
hydraulic components.

Never disable, remove, or relocate any sensors or
other components related to the operation of the
air bags in your vehicle.

Keep your hands, feet, and clothing away from
moving parts and mounting points.

Ensure the plow is properly attached to the vehicle
before moving it.

To comply with federal regulations and to
assure a safe vehicle, do not exceed the
front gross-axle-weight rating (FGAWR), rear
gross-axle-weight rating (RGAWR), and the
gross-vehicle-weight rating (GVWR) at any time.

To comply with federal regulations, ensure that the
equipment does not obstruct the truck’s taillight
when the plow is raised. If the taillights are
obstructed, auxiliary taillights may be required.

Always wear appropriate personal protective
equipment when operating and servicing the
machine. Wear substantial, slip-resistant footwear,
and cold-weather clothing.

Use a 500 kg (1/2 ton) minimum lifting device to
move heavy plow components.

Material safety data sheets (MSDS) are available
at

www.BOSSPlow.com

.

Operation

Vehicles equipped with air bags are designed
so that the air bags activate in a frontal collision
equivalent to hitting a solid barrier (such as a wall)
at approximately 22 km/h (14 mph) or more, or a
frontal perpendicular collision with a parked car
or truck of similar size at approximately 45 km/h
(28 mph) or more. Careless or high-speed driving
while plowing snow can deploy the air bag.

Do not change the blade position when traveling.

Do not exceed 64 km/h (40 mph) when transporting
the plow.

Do not exceed 23 km/h (14 mph) when plowing.
