1 Introduction
We strongly recommend that you read the user’s manual and the safety instructions carefully.
The operator must be familiar with the V-plough in order to ensure safe usage.
1.1 Description of V-plough
This appliance is designed for snowploughing streets, car parks and other areas.
The appliance is intended for mounting onto an available attachment on farm tractors, bucket
loaders and compact tractors. The OPTIMAL V-plough can be equipped with a quick coupling for
mounting onto most tractor models. The standard V-plough is equipped with an electric hydraulic
power unit.
The V-plough can be set to three different positions depending on the type of work to be done.
POINTED SNOW PLOUGH for conventional snowploughing, Y- PLOUGH for pavements, street
crossings and other areas where the collecting and removing of snow is desirable, DIAGONAL
SNOW PLOUGH for car parks, streets etc. The scraper steels are spring-loaded and reversible.
The outer scraper steels have bent-over edges (scraper steels for pavements) which reduce the
risk of damage when an obstacle is encountered. The OPTIMAL V-plough has a hinged
suspension, which enables the implement to follow uneven surfaces.
The plough is as standard equipped with a so-called diagonal valve, which make it possible to
operate the wings individual or both together parallel (when one wing moves in the other one
moves out). With a diagonal valve the plough can be used in the same convenient way as a
traditional diagonal scraper blade.
