These torque values apply to fasteners

except those noted in the instruction.

 WARNING

Vehicle exhaust contains lethal fumes.
Breathing these fumes, even in low
concentrations, can cause death. Never
operate a vehicle in an enclosed area without
venting exhaust to the outside.

 CAUTION

Read instructions before assembling. Fasteners
should be finger tight until instructed to tighten
according to the torque chart. Use standard
methods and practices when attaching
snowplow, including proper personal
protective safety equipment.

 WARNING

Gasoline is highly flammable, and gasoline
vapor is explosive. Never smoke while working
on a vehicle. Keep all open flames away from
gasoline tanks and lines. Wipe up any spilled
gasoline immediately.

FUSES

The electrical and hydraulic systems contain several
blade-style automotive fuses. If a problem should occur
and fuse replacement is necessary, the replacement
fuse must be of the same type and amperage rating as
the original. Installing a fuse with a higher rating can
damage the system and could start a fire. Fuse
Replacement, including fuse ratings and locations, is
located in the Maintenance Section of the Owner’s
Manual.

FIRE AND EXPLOSION

Be careful when using gasoline. Do not use gasoline to
clean parts. Store only in approved containers away
from sources of heat or flame.
