WARNING
Read this manual carefully before operating this snowplow.
WARNING
Make sure plow is properly attached and secured before
moving vehicle.
WARNING
Do not move plow while servicing or place any part of your
body between or under plow parts while moving plow.
WARNING
When transporting, position plow so as not to block driver
line of sight or plow headlights.
WARNING
DO NOT move the blade or exceed 50 MPH when trans-
porting the plow.
WARNING
DO NOT plow at speeds in over of 14 mph.
WARNING
Always lower blade and power off controller when vehi-
cle is not in use.
WARNING
Always follow the vehicle manufacturers recommendations
relating to snowplow installation.
WARNING
When using on a vehicle with air bags, DO NOT tamper
with, disable or remove any components related to the
operation of the air bags.
WARNING
When using on a vehicle with air bags, DO NOT tamper
with, disable or remove any components related to
the operation of the air bags. Vehicles equipped with
air bags are designed such that the air bags will be
activated in a frontal collision equivalent to hitting a
solid barrier (such as a wall) at approximately 14 mph
or more, or, roughly speaking, a frontal perpendicular
collision with a parked car or truck of similar size at
approximately 28 mph or more. Careless or high speed
driving while plowing snow, which results in vehicle
decelerations equivalent to or greater than the air bag
deployment threshold described above, could deploy
the air bag.
Plow Assembly
SnowDogg Plows are shipped almost fully assembled
to reduce assembly time and simplify installation. The
illustrations are representative and may vary from your
actual hardware. Please refer to the tables for part
numbers involved in installation. Full part diagrams

Prop Foot Deployment
For shipping the prop feet are in the transport position and the lift frame/Aframe are in stacking position. For
mounting, the prop feet will need to be rotated to the deployed position so that the plow can be mounted.
This step requires two people or a winch to rotate the lift frame.
1. Raise the rear of the a-frame approximately 6"-8" from the floor.
2. Rotate the lift frame away from the a-frame until the top plate is approximately parallel to the ground
3. Pull up on both prop feet and rotate down to the deployed position.
4. Extend both feet to contact the ground.
5. Allow the lift frame to rotate back down until it rests on the top surface of both prop feet.

1. For ease of assembly, remove the two front HPU covers by pulling out the retainer pins and set aside. The
retainer pins are captive in the plastic covers – do not remove.
2. The UPPER LIFT FRAME (2) fits into the LIFT FRAME (1) as shown in Figure 5. Insert it and seat securely.
3. Install the 3/8” Carriage Bolts (4a) and Nuts/Washers (4b/4c) as shown. The side Carriage Bolt should point
towards the center of the lift frame. Loosely assemble but do not tighten.
4. After ensuring upper and lower lift frame are aligned, tighten fasteners.
5. The plow light harness as shipped is tucked into the LIFT FRAME hydraulic power unit cavity and should now
be routed through the holes to the UPPER LIFT FRAME. The side marked A is DRIVER SIDE. The side marked B
is PASSENGER SIDE.
6. Install the 16160700 light kit to the upper lift frame using the included hardware. The Shock Spacer (5) is in
the plow hardware kit and is not included with the lights. This should be installed under the spherical washer
as shown.
7. Inspect the lighting connectors to make sure the pins are straight, and carefully connect the lights to the plow
light harness. If the connectors are forced together, the pins can be bent.
Your SnowDogg plow is now fully assembled and ready for mounting onto a properly configured vehicle.
Vehicle Side Installation
Plowing is very hard on vehicles. For this reason any vehicle getting a plow mounted to it should be well main-
tained. Before installing a plow, and on a regular basis after, have the following systems checked and repaired as
necessary:
• Braking - The additional weight and frequent starts/stops of plowing require your brakes to be working
at their best.
• Cooling - Transporting the plow can block air flow to your radiator. Keep an eye on your temperature
gage and make sure your cooling system is working as designed.
• Suspension - Plows really work out a front suspension even if you are within your FAWR limit. Have your
suspension components checked regularly.
• Transmission - Snowplow operators probably drive in reverse more than any other driving professional.
Keep your transmission well maintained, and ALWAYS fully stop before shifting from forward to reverse.
• Lighting - Plow lights require the truck lights to be working correctly. Any malfunction on the truck side
will result in a malfunction on the truck side and make troubleshooting much more difficult. Always make
sure your truck lights are working normally BEFORE you start an install.
• Alignment - The vehicle alignment should be checked and corrected AFTER the plow is installed.
Vehicle Specific Mount Installation
Install the SnowDogg Plow Mount required for your application following all instructions in the mount installation
instructions(**). Modification of your vehicles bumper/air dam/fascia may be required and will vary from vehicle
to vehicle.
** The HDII/EXII/VX2II plows use the same mounts used for the HD/EX/VXF series. However, due to changes in
the lift geometry, the pushbar should be mounted with the solid round bar at ~11” from the ground. If this is not
possible due to truck interference, the push bar can be mounted lower without impact on plow performance.
WARNING
Check all mounting hardware on a regular basis. Fasteners on plow mounts are subjected to a great deal of
vibration and WILL loosen over time potentially causing the mount or plow to come loose from your vehicle.

83036332_A
Vehicle Side Electrical Installation
The SnowDogg plow has separate harnesses for Hydraulic and Lighting for ease of installation and trouble-
shooting. Either harness can be omitted without affecting the functionality of the other system.
Control Harness Installation
The truck side control harness is routed through the grill, by the battery, and through the firewall to the control-
ler. It is preferable when possible to keep the plow connector on the driver side to make mount/dismount easier
and faster.
It is important that the 15A fused power lead go to an ignition switched source. Hooking direct to an “always on”
source will cause a constant current draw and drain the vehicle battery. If NO an ignition switched source cannot
be found, any switch rated at 15A can be used to turn off the power.
CAUTION
Keep all connectors greased with dielectric grease on a regular basis to minimize corrosion & potential damage
or wear to the pins. It is critical that all electrical connections be tight and secure. Loose connections on the plow
circuit can cause overheating, component failure, or intermittent opration.

93036332_A
1. Route the CONTROL HARNESS through the truck grill, by the battery, and through the firewall. If no available
opening exists, a ø7/8" hole will need to drilled through the firewall. Check your truck Owner’s Manual for details
on where this can safely done. If the hole is drilled it is critical that a grommet be used to prevent damage to the
wire harness.
2. Mount the MOTOR RELAY in a convenient and secure location on the battery side of the vehicle using the
included self tapping screws.
3. The small RED and BLACK WIRES from the CONTROL HARNESS are connected to the small terminals of the
MOTOR RELAY. It does not matter which wire goes to which terminal.
4. The small BLACK WIRE with the eyelet should be connected to battery ground or a good chassis ground. A
“dirty” ground will cause excessive power draw and can cause malfunctions in lights and the controller.
5. The RED/WHITE wire will be connected to the LIGHT HARNESS in the next step.
6. The large (4 gage) BLACK WIRE on the CONTROL HARNESS must be connected directly to the NEGATIVE (-)
battery terminal.
7. The large (4 gage) RED WIRE on the CONTROL HARNESS is connected to one of the large terminals on the
MOTOR RELAY. It does not matter which terminal is used.
8. The shorter RED BATTERY CABLE is used to connect the other large terminal of the MOTOR RELAY with the
POSITIVE (+) terminal on the battery.
9. The CONTROLLER CONNECTOR is routed through the firewall.
10. Connect the handheld controller and locate in a convenient location for the operator using the included
mounting hardware if desired.
11. The FUSED ACC POWER WIRE coming off of the controller connector must be connected to an IGNITION
SWITCHED 15A/12V power source. Hooking direct to an “always on” source will cause a constant current draw
and drain the vehicle battery. If NO an ignition switched source cannot be found, any switch rated at 15A can be
used to turn off the power.

Light Harness Installation
The light harness is split into a RELAY MODULE and GRILL HARNESS to allow for easy installation. Connectors
have been designed in such a way to prevent installation errors – but be sure to read all instructions.
1. Install the appropriate 1607XXXX headlight adapter (and accessories) using the instructions.
2. Route the GRILL HARNESS through the grill (drivers side preferably)
3. Locate the RELAY MODULE close to either the driver or passenger side headlight (whichever is convenient)
and connect the 8-pin connector to the GRILL harness.
4. Route and connect your 1607XXXX headlight adapters to the RELAY MODULE.
5. Connect the BLACK wire with ring terminal to Battery or a clean Chassis ground. If a chassis ground is used
– it would be best to use the same location used for the CONTROL HARNESS.
6. Connect the purple TURN SIGNAL Signal wires between the harnesses.
a. If your “A” headlight adapter is on the DRIVER SIDE
i. Connect PURPLE/WHITE to PURPLE/WHITE
ii. Connect PURPLE/BLACK to PURPLE/BLACK
b. If your “B” headlight adapter is on the DRIVER SIDE
i. Connect PURPLE/WHITE to PURPLE/BLACK
ii. Connect PURPLE/BLACK to PURPLE/WHITE
c. If you find that your plow turn signals are backwards from the truck – swap the wires.
7. The final configuration steps require you to know if your vehicle is STANDARD or SWITCHED GROUND instal-
lation. MOST vehicles are STANDARD. ALWAYS verify your application on the application guide before configur-
ing. Configuring your harness incorrectly can result in blown fuses and troubleshooting hassles.
Standard Installation
• Connect the ORANGE wire on the RELAY MODULE to the RED/WHITE wire on the CONTROL HARNESS.
This supplies ignition switched power to the light relays.

• Cut open the loom on the GRILL HARNESS near the 8-pin connector to locate the WHITE/BLACK wire.
This wire has male and female connectors in line.
• Disconnect the WHITE/BLACK wires (male and female connectors) from each other on the GRILL HARNESS.
• Connect the ORANGE wire on the RELAY MODULE to the WHITE/BLACK wire on the GRILL HARNESS.
This supplies ground to the relay coils when the plow is connected.
• Connect the WHITE/BLACK wire on the GRILL HARNESS to the RED/WHITE wire on the CONTROL
HARNESS. This supplies ignition switched power to the common wire of the plow lights.
8. With the plow disconnected, check all light functions on the vehicle.
9. Connect the plow and check all light functions on the plow.
Optional Accessory Wires
There are two extra blunt cut wires (RED and BLUE) in the GRILL HARNESS near the 8-pin connector. These
wires are for optional accessories mounted on the plow. They end at the 5-pin light connectors on the plow –
and go to both the driver and passenger side light connectors. If these are used, they should be properly termi-
nated. These wires are suitable for 15A of current.

Plow Mounting And Checkout
Your fully assembled plow is now ready to mount to the vehicle that you have prepared. Mount the plow using
the instructions as shown.
Mounting
1. Check that the pins are fully retracted. The foot pedal should be pushed towards the truck and will lock in the
retracted position.
2. Drive in to the plow so that the cross bar on the mount engages with the receiver notch on the plow.
3. Pull the foot pedal away from the truck to release the pins.
4. Push up on the lift frame to engage the pins. The gold pin will be visible to verify full connection. Insert the
lock pin (or padlock) through the foot pedal and pedal linkage.
5. Push the prop foot down and rotate up to the stowed position.
6. Connect both the lighting & hydraulic connectors.
Dismounting
1. Put the plow in float by holding the down button for 1 second.
2. Press down on the chain lift to retract the lift cylinder. The chain must have slack for ease of plow removal.
3. Pull the prop stand up and rotate the prop down to the deployed position. Adjust the foot extension as
necessary to support the plow at the truck height.
4. Push on the foot pedal and raise the lift frame simultaneously. The pins will retract and the lift frame will
rotate forward to rest on the lift frame prop.
5. Disconnect the lighting and hydraulic connectors.
6. Back away from the snowplow.
Power on the plow controller and operate the plow through all functions
CAUTION
For safety reasons, the blade drops very slowly on the plow as shipped. To adjust the drop speed of the blade use
a flat blade screwdriver nad turn the lowering speed adjustment on the front of the hydraulic power unit counter
clockwise. Turn it clockwise to slow the blade drop speed. Do this only while the blade is droppen, and tighten
the jam nut after adjusting

13 3036332_A
Verify that all plow lights work properly
• LOW BEAM
• HIGH BEAM
• FLASH TO PASS
• TURN SIGNALS
• PARKING LIGHTS
Mount and Dismount the plow several times to confirm that all components work as intended. If any portion of
the truck bumper or air dam interferes with mounting, it may need to be removed or the pushbar lowered. With
the floating a-frame, the pushbar mounting height can vary significantly without impacting plow performance.
Light Aiming
1. Place the vehicle on a level surface 25 feet in front of a matte-white screen, such as a white wall or garage door.
2. The snowplow should be mounted, with the blade raised in transport position.
3. Check that the truck is in normal operating condition with no flat tires, failed suspension components, and no
passengers.
4. Mark the vertical centerline of the vehicle headlights on the screen (a line matching the height the of head-
lights from the ground). Mark the horizontal centerline of the vehicle headlights on the screen (lines matching the
headlight center to center distance).
5. The high intensity zone of the low beams should be just below the horizontal line and the right of the vertical
lines (see diagram below). Adjust the headlight aim as required.

NOTE: Snowplow installers must certify that installation conforms to federal motor vehicle safety standards.
Your plow and truck are now ready for operation. The hydraulic system has been filled at the factory and should
be fully operational. It is possible that agitation due to the shipping has introduce some air into the oil. When
operating the plow for the first time some oil may exit the vent (by the coils). This should stop once the plow
is cycled and operational. Check all plow and light functions. If something is not working correctly, reread the
installation directions to make sure a step was not missed and check the schematics.

14 3036332_A
STORAGE
1. Before disconnection the plow from your vehicle, fully compress the lift cylinder
2. Disconnect the plow from your vehicle
3. Coat all electrical connection points with dielectric grease
4. Repair/touch up any chipped paint or rusted areas
5. Apply a coat of oil or grease to all exposed chrome (on angle and lift cylinders)
6. Grease all grease fittings on trip pins and king pin
REMOVAL FROM STORAGE
1. Check all fasteners and hydraulic fittings for tightness.
2. Replace any cracked hydraulic hoses
3. Coat all electrical connection points with dielectric grease
4. Connect plow to vehicle
MAINTENANCE
The SnowDogg line of plows has been simply designed for reliable service. In order to ensure the
reliability of your plow, observe the following maintenance items and regularly inspect:
• Fasteners and retaining devices for proper installation and tightness.
• Hydraulic cylinders for damage, pitting or leakage
• Hydraulic hoses for wear, damage or leakage. Replace any damaged hose.
• All electrical connections for corrosion – apply dielectric grease as required
• Cutting edge wear
• Plow shoe wear
• Greasable fittings (2x trip pins and king pin)
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
• All SnowDogg plows use SnowDogg brand Low-Temperature Hydraulic Fluid (P/N 16150010) available from
SnowDogg dealers.
• The reservoir should be filled through to top port until oil reaches the top port.
• Recheck and tighten all fittings and valves every season or as necessary. Vibration due to normal use can
cause fittings to loosen.
• Loctite or Teflon tape should not be used on any fittings or hoses. The only plugs where pipe sealant may be
used are the reservoir plugs.
• The reservoir should be drained and refilled every season to ensure that the oil remains free of water and
contanimants. If contaminants are known to be present, it is recommended that the reservoir be removed and
cleaned.
With proper maintenance and care your SnowDogg plow will provide years of trouble free service!
