These torque values apply to fasteners

except those noted in the instruction.

 CAUTION

Batteries normally produce explosive gases 
which can cause personal injury. Therefore, 
do not allow 

fl

 ames, sparks or lit tobacco 

to come near the battery. When charging or 
working near a battery, always cover your 
face and protect your eyes, and also provide 
ventilation.
Batteries contain sulfuric acid which burns 
skin, eyes and clothing.
Disconnect the battery before removing or 
replacing any electrical components.

 CAUTION

Read instructions before assembling. 
Fasteners should be 

fi

 nger tight until 

instructed to tighten according to torque 
chart. Use standard methods and practices 
when attaching snowplow including proper 
personal protective safety equipment.

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 

fl

 ame.

CELL PHONES

A driver's 

fi

 rst responsibility is the safe operation of 

the vehicle. The most important thing you can do 
to prevent a crash is to avoid distractions and pay 
attention to the road. Wait until it is safe to operate 
Mobile Communication Equipment such as cell 
phones or two-way radios.

VENTILATION

 WARNING

Gasoline is highly 

fl

 ammable and gasoline 

vapor is explosive. Never smoke while 
working on vehicle. Keep all open 

fl

 ames 

away from gasoline tank and lines. Wipe up 
any spilled gasoline immediately.

 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.
