PRE-SEASON & POST-SEASON MAINTENANCE
The Path Pro
2
recommends this maintenance information for regular service. Sustained heavy operation may call for more frequent service. Snow plowing
subjects a vehicle to exceptionally rugged use. As a result, it is very important to inspect and maintain the snow plow and vehicle up to maximum operating conditions.
Inspection should be made of both the vehicle and snow plow prior to the plowing season and after each use.
PRE-SEASON MAINTENANCE
Scheduled vehicle maintenance should be performed as recommended by the manufacturer.
Don’t forget that in addition to keeping equipment in order:
1. Keep windshield wipers, heaters and lights working.
2. Use emergency flasher lights for increased visibility and safety.
3. Equip vehicles with chains where necessary.
VEHICLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
For maximum efficiency, the vehicle supporting the snow plow must be properly serviced.
The system should consist of at least a 70 amp./hr. battery and a 60 amp alternator. Be sure to check regularly:
1. Battery terminals to assure they’re clean and free of corrosion.
2. Electrical connections, to assure they’re tight and corrosion free.
3. Battery must be in top operating condition.
4. Alternator and regulator, to assure maximum electrical output.
Check the Diagnosis chart Pre/Post Season Maintenance for advice on maintaining the unit.
1. ALWAYS LOWER MOLDBOARD TO THE GROUND WHEN SNOW PLOW IS BEING
SERVICED OR WHEN VEHICLE IS NOT IN USE
.
2.
Before and after each season, Grease all pins and lubricate all pivot points with chassis lube.
3. CUTTING EDGE –
Replace the cutting edge as soon as it is 3-1/2" (5" is new) Tall. This will prevent permanent damage to
the moldboard (fig. 48).
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 (fig. 49).
5. MOUNTING BOLTS –
Retighten all mounting bolts after first snow plowing session and at regular intervals through the season.
6. 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 Sno-Flo® powder coat touch-up available in spray cans.
NOTE: PROTECTION AGAINST RUST AND CORROSION.
