Operator’s Manual City Ranger 2260/2250 Snow V-plough Operator’s Manual City Ranger 2260/2250 Snow V-plough
The snow V-plough uses the tip of the ‘V’ to cut
through heavy and encrusted snow, separating
and pushing it to both sides. Even large
amounts of snow are removed with ease.
The V-plough can also be congured as a ‘Y’ to
allow snow to be transported away – very useful
in car parks, markets, enclosed courtyards
and other locations where snow needs to be
gathered in one place.
The snow V-plough is equipped as standard
with a safety tilt system to protect paths and the
machine.
The V-plough support has sideways suspension,
so that the snow V-plough always adjusts to
ground conditions.
Useful tips
Adjust the skids to suit ground conditions. If
there are a lot of raised edges, set the skids high
so they do not cut into the edges.
Use the snow V-plough for big drifts. The snow
V-plough removes most of the snow and then
the snow sweeper nishes off the job.
Ensure the snap couplings are clean before
tting, as this protects the hydraulic system.
Daily cleaning and maintenance will extend
the lifetime of both the machine and the
attachment.

During transport
Lock the snow V-plough in the raised position
using the transport lock. This prevents the
attachment from lowering during transport.
How to use the transport lock
Move the handle to the uppermost position. Lift
the A-frame by moving the joystick up. As the
A-frame lifts the transport lock is automatically
activated. (Picture 1)
How to use the transport lock
Unhitch the handle and lift the A-frame to the
uppermost position. The attachment can now be
lowered again. (Picture 2)
2.3 Start-up
1. Start the machine.
2. Lower the snow V-plough by moving the
joystick down. (Picture 3)
3. Activate the weight distribution with the red
button on the joystick (Picture 4). The snow
V-plough will now adjust to ground conditions.
To adjust the weight distribution read the
operator’s manual for the basic City Ranger
2260/2250 machine.
4. Turn the left blade of the snow V-plough by
moving the joystick to the left or to the right.
When the joystick is moved to the right, the
blade swings forwards.
5. Turn the right blade snow V-plough by
pressing the black joystick button and moving
the joystick left or right. (Picture 4) When the
joystick is moved to the right, the blade swings
forwards.

2.3 Start-up - continued
Attention!
Make sure no one is standing close
to the machine while it is in use.
N.B!
When turning, the rear of the
machine swings out so there is a risk
of crushing or collision.
Warning!
Collision with solid obstacles – such
as kerbstones – may damage the
snow V-plough. This damage may
cause bolts to snap or parts of the
snow V-plough to bend. Damage
of this type is not covered by the
warranty.
2.4 Adjustment
Adjust the skids to the ground conditions.
If there are a lot of raised edges set the skids
high so they do not cut into the edges.
Adjusting the scraping height
1. Raise the snow V-plough by pulling the
joystick up. (Picture 1)
2. Lock the snow V-plough in the raised position
using the transport lock. (Picture 2)
3. Stop the machine.
4. Remove the locking ring on the skid.
(Picture 3)
Adjust the skid height by moving washers up or
down.

3.1 Cleaning
Daily cleaning and maintenance will extend
the lifetime of both the machine and the
attachment.
After use clean the snow V-plough with clean
water.
Avoid high pressure cleaning of the snap
couplings.
Open the ap over the snap couplings. Use
pressurised air to clean around the snap
couplings. The couplings can be dried with a
cloth (Picture 1). It is important the couplings
are intact before the attachment is tted.
3.2 Maintenance
Lubricating the bearings
The bearings in the pivot joint of the snow
V-plough should be greased regularly with good
quality grease.
1. Stop the machine.
2. Clean the lubricating nipples and lubricate the
bearings until the grease starts to come out of
the bearing. (Picture 2)
There are ve lubrication nipples in the centre
swivel.
There are four lubrication nipples on the
cylinder. (Picture 3)
Note
After 10 hours of operation - check if
bolts and nuts are tightened.
