OPERATING YOUR SNOWPLOW
Deep Snow
1. Shear
o
ff
top layers by plowing with the blade
raised 3 to 4 inches for the initial pass.
2. Bite into the edges using only partial blade width
until the job is cut down to size for full-blade
plowing.
Rule of thumb:
3" of snow — plow with entire blade width
6" of snow — plow with 3/4 blade width
9" of snow — plow with 1/2 blade width
Experience and "feel" are the best guides.
3. When plowing deep snow, be sure to keep the
vehicle moving.
4. Ballast is suggested for maximum traction. Secure
ballast behind the rear wheels. Do not exceed the
vehicle's GVWR and GAWR.
5. For increased traction, use tire chains where legal.
Clearing Driveways
1. Head into the driveway with the blade angled and
plow the snow away from any buildings. Widen the
driveway by rolling the snow away from buildings.
2. If a building is at the end of the driveway, plow to
within a vehicle length of the building. Push as
much snow as possible o
ff
the driveway.
3. With a raised blade, drive through the remaining
snow to the building. Drop the blade and back
drag snow away from the building at least one
vehicle length. Repeat if necessary.
4. Back the vehicle to the building and plow forward,
removing the remaining snow. Check municipal
ordinances for proper disposal of snow.
