BLADE DROP SPEED ADJUSTMENT

The quill in the valve manifold adjusts the blade 

drop speed.

1.  Lower the blade to the ground before making 

the adjustment.

2.  Remove the hydraulic unit cover.

 WARNING

Keep 8' (2.4 m) clear of the blade when it 

is being raised, lowered, or angled. Do not 

stand between vehicle and blade or directly 

in front of the blade. If the blade hits or drops 

on you, you could be seriously injured.

OPERATING YOUR SNOWPLOW

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

Hydraulic Fluid

For hydraulic fluid type and filling instructions, see 

"Annual Fluid Change" under "Hydraulic System" 

in the Maintenance section of this manual.

Relief Valves

The hydraulic unit's valve manifold includes relief 

valves to prevent damage to the blade or vehicle if 

an obstacle is hit at either end of the blade. When 

force against the blade causes the pressure 

in 

an extended ram

 to exceed set limits, the relief 

valve opens allowing fluid to escape and the ram 

retracts.

The valves are preset at the factory and do not 

need any adjustments unless the valve manifold 

is serviced.
