4. Adjust the length of the lift chain so the T-frame
hits the T-frame stop when the lift ram is fully
raised (10"). Tighten U-bolts.
5. For reliable operation and prevent damage to
the 6-1/2" lift arm extension spring, the length
of the cable must be adjusted when attached to
the vehicle it will be used on. With the lift ram
fully collapsed, wrap the cable tightly around the
thimble, shorten/lengthen the cable to remove
all slack from the cable, then tighten the cable
clamps.
10"
6. After adjustment, excess cable should be trimmed
off close to the second cable clamp. Cover cut
end of cable with electrical tape. Excessive spring
tension will make attaching/detaching dif
fi
cult and
overextend the spring.
7. Raise and lower the snowplow in retract (vee)
position to verify hydraulic hoses bow outward and
do not interfere with snowplow components.
NOTE: Ensure base-end angle ram hoses are
wrapped over the diagonal brace. Adjust hoses,
fi
ttings and wraps as necessary.
8. With the wings in the straight position, measure
the gap between the center cutting edges.
9. If the gap between the cutting edges is not 1/8"
(centered on main pivot pin), raise the blade and
support it safely on a solid block. Loosen the
fasteners and slide the center cutting edges to
obtain the proper dimension.
10. Once the measurement is correct, fully tighten
cutting edge fasteners according to the torque
chart.
1/8"
