SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
PERSONAL SAFETY
Improper installation and operation could cause
personal injury and/or equipment and property damage.
Read and understand labels and the Owner's Manual
before installing, operating or making adjustments.
• Remove ignition key and put the vehicle in park or
in gear to prevent others from starting the vehicle
during installation or service.
• Wear only snug-fitting clothing while working on
your vehicle or snowplow.
WARNING
• Do not wear jewelry or a necktie, and secure long
hair.
Lower the blade when vehicle is parked.
Temperature changes could change
hydraulic pressure, causing the blade to
drop unexpectedly or damaging hydraulic
components. Failure to do this could result in
serious personal injury.
• Wear safety goggles to protect your eyes from
battery acid, gasoline, dirt and dust.
• Avoid touching hot surfaces such as the engine,
radiator, hoses and exhaust pipes.
• Always have a fire extinguisher rated BC handy,
for flammable liquids and electrical fires.
WARNING
The driver shall keep bystanders clear of the
blade when it is being raised, lowered or angled.
Do not stand between the vehicle and the blade
or within 8 feet of a moving blade. A moving or
falling blade could cause personal injury.
FIRE AND EXPLOSION
WARNING
Gasoline is highly flammable, and gasoline
vapor is explosive. Never smoke while working
on vehicle. Keep all open flames away from
gasoline tank and lines. Wipe up any spilled
gasoline immediately.
WARNING
Keep hands and feet clear of the blade and
A-frame when mounting or removing the
snowplow. Moving or falling assemblies could
cause personal injury.
Be careful when using gasoline. Do not use gasoline
to clean parts. Store only in approved containers away
from sources of heat or flame.
WARNING
CELL PHONES
Do not exceed GVWR or GAWR including the
blade and ballast. The rating label is found on
the driver-side vehicle door cornerpost.
A driver's first 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.
WARNING
To prevent accidental movement of the blade,
always turn the control OFF whenever the
snowplow is not in use. The power indicator
light will turn OFF.
VENTILATION
WARNING
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.
Remove blade assembly before placing
vehicle on hoist.
CAUTION
Refer to the Undercarriage Selection Guide
for minimum vehicle recommendations and
ballast requirements.

holes in the hanger plates and secure with
1/2" washers and 1/2" locknuts.
5. Mount the pushbeam square with the bottom
of each hanger plate using 1/2" x 1-1/4" cap
screws, 1/2" washers and 1/2" locknuts. Torque
the pushbeam hardware according to the
torque chart.
6. Align the cross member support with the
vehicle cross member. Secure each side with
7/16" x 4" cap screws, 7/16" washers and
7/16" locknuts.
7.
