VI. MAINTENANCE/CARE
•
Inspect all metal parts on the plow, plow mount, and related hardware. Replace all parts that appears
rusted or deformed prior to use.
•
Inspect all nuts and bolts on the plow, plow mount, and related hardware prior to each use. Tighten
all nuts and bolts that appear to be loose. Stripped, fractured, or bent bolts or nuts need to be
replaced immediately.
•
Check all cables prior to use. Replace cables that are worn or frayed.
•
Check all moving and rotating parts. Remove debris that may inhibit the part from moving freely.
VII. TROUBLE SHOOTING
Trouble
Inspection
Diagnosis
Action
A. Check that the
side slots in
skidpan align
with the hole
and nut in the
chassis.
Difficulty
getting bolts to
line up with
holes in
chassis.
1. Make sure the
skidpan slots
aligns with the hole
when the mount is
not compressed
against it.
1. Adjust and move the
skidpan while compressing
the plow mount against it
until the skidpan slots align
with the hole.
2. Make sure the
skidpan slots align
with the hole when
the U-bolts are put
through the
skidpan.
2. Increase the diameter or slot
the holes drilled through the
skidpan until the skidpan
slots align with the holes.
The electric
actuator cable
will not rotate
within the
termination
bracket.
A. Check the
termination of
the actuator
cable.
1. Make sure the
cable is in the slot
of the termination
bracket, the
cylindrical pin is
attached to the
cable, and the
termination bracket
is attached such
that it leans toward
the plow blade.
1. Mount the bracket to the
plow crossmember on the
plow blade side angling
toward the blade. Slide the
end of the actuator cable
through the termination
bracket slot. Slide the
cylindrical pin over the end
of the cable and terminate
with a 1/4” nut (D). The
completed assembly should
look like Figure 12.
A. Check the
alignment of the
plow mount
holes in relation
to the plow
holes.
Difficulty
getting plow
pins through
the plow and
plow mount.
1. Make sure the plow
and vehicle are
both on a flat non-
sloping surface.
1. Move the plow and vehicle
to a flat non-sloping surface.
2. Make sure the plow
holes align per-
fectly with the plow
mount holes.
2. Place a smaller diameter rod
(such as a drill bit) through
the holes and align the two.
Once the two are aligned,
hold the plow in place and
put the plow pin through the
two holes.
