1. Check and maintain hydraulic fluid reservoir level to 1” - 1-1/2” from
top cap. Oil level should be checked with lift ram in the down position.
2. Check entire hydraulic system for leaks. A significant drop in
hydraulic fluid level is evidence of a leak which must be corrected
to prevent serious damage. See page 22.
3. Before and after each season, remove sector pivot pins, thoroughly
grease pivot tubes and reinstall pins. Lubricate all
pivot points with chassis lube.
4.
ADJUSTING TRIP SPRING TENSION
- Tighten top
locknut 4 turns beyond the point when spring coils
begin to separate. Tighten bottom locknut to hold
eye bolt in position as shown.
5.
RUNNERS
A. Inspect moldboard runners for wear and height
adjustment.
B. Always replace runners as soon as they start to
wear through.
C. Adjust the runners to maintain cutting edge height
of 1/2” above ground in snow plowing position. (Can
be set higher when used on gravel driveways).
6.
CUTTING EDGE
Replace the cutting edge as soon as it appears worn approximately
4” on either corner. This will prevent permanent damage to the
moldboard.
7.
MOUNTING BOLTS
Retighten all mounting bolts after first snow plowing session and at
regular intervals through the season.
8.
SNO-FLO® POWDER COATING
, both black and yellow, should be
checked at the beginning and end of each season for any signs of
rust. If any exists, use Meyer special Sno-Flo® powder coat
touch-up available in spray cans.
NOTE: PROTECTION AGAINST RUST AND CORROSION
When the power unit is not used for extended periods,
protect the
chromed lift piston by fully extending and coating it with chassis
lubricant.
On power angling models, coat the exposed portions
of the power angling cylinder rods with chassis lubricant to protect
against corrosion.
Post Season Summer Maintenance
1.
Draining & Replacing Meyer M-1 Hydraulic Fluid
Drain fluid through drain hole in base, shown in Figure 0-3, by
completely retracting cylinder lift position and unbolting unit to pour
fluid out, or use a suction pump. On models without drain plug,
fluid must be drained by removing filler plug and turning unit upside
down. Follow same procedure of retracting cylinder lift piston. On
Power Angling models, disconnect the fittings at the Power Angling
cylinders, completely retract the cylinder rods and purge cylinders
and hoses of all hydraulic fluid. The complete hydraulic system
should then be flushed out with Meyer Hydra-Flush before adding
new Meyer Hydraulic Fluid.
2.
Screen-Type Filters
- Clean the filters (all models) with mineral
spirits or equivalent and blow out with compressed air. See Figure
0-3.
