GETTING TO KNOW YOUR SNOWPLOW
There is no need to unhook the chains or the
hydraulic hoses. When the lift frame is pinned
to the stands and locked in place (see blade
label or the Removing Snowplow from Vehicle
& Storage section of this manual), the complete
UltraMount
®
2 snowplow can be easily moved
around on most hard surfaces.
BLADES
WESTERN
®
snowplows with steel blades are
constructed of heavy-gauge steel. To increase
rigidity and strength, the blades are reinforced with
several vertical ribs. The top edges are formed for
added strength and improved appearance.
WESTERN snowplows with poly blades are
constructed of a high molecular weight polyethylene
sheet that is supported with structural steel.
WESTERN blades have replaceable high-carbon
steel cutting edges bolted to the bottom.
Straight blade, PRODIGY™, WIDE-OUT™, and
WIDE-OUT™ XL cutting edges should be replaced
when worn to the bottom edge of the blade.
MVP PLUS™, MVP 3™, and ENFORCER™ cutting
edges should be replaced when worn to within 1" of
the carriage bolts. (See the Maintenance section in
this manual.)
Your new blade's steel components are protected
with a baked-on ULTRAFINISH™ powder coat
over a base primer coat that resists cracking,
corrosion, scratching, and rust. This coating—
many times thicker than paint—will maintain its
luster and glossy good looks. It can be touched up
when necessary.
Blade guides are included with your complete
snowplow. These help the operator to visualize the
edges of the blade and aid in blade positioning.
