Introduction

3Operator’s Manual Park Ranger 2150 Snow V-Blade Operator’s Manual Park Ranger 2150 Snow V-Blade
The snow v-blade 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-blade 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-blade is equipped as standard with
a safety tilt system to protect paths and the
machine.
The v-blade support has sideways suspension,
so that the snow v-blade 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-blade for big drifts. The snow
v-blade 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.

of the snow v-blade, so the A-frames t into each
other. (Picture 1)
3. Raise the A-frame using lever A on the left-hand
side of the base machine until thesnow v-blade is
freely suspended above the ground.
4. Lock the snow v-blade in place with the locking
handle on the A-frame. (Picture 2)
5. Stop the machine.
6. Fit the hydraulic hoses to the B-connectors on
the left-hand side of the machine. (Picture 3)
7. Insert the power plug in the power socket
between the B-connectors.
8. Attach the hydraulic hoses using the rubber
ring under the running board to ensure that they
run correctly over the mud ap. (Picture 4)

Lock the snow v-blade in the raised position using
the transport lock. This prevents the attachment
from lowering during transport. (Picture 1)

1. Start the machine.
2. Lower the snow v-blade by pushing lever A
on the left-hand side of the machine down to
position 2. (Picture 2)
3. Turn the left blade of the snow v-blade by
moving lever B on the left-hand side of the
machine to the left or right. The snow v-blade
swings in the same direction as lever B is moved.
4. Turn the right blade of the snow v-blade by
pressing the button on lever B and moving lever B
to the left or right. (Picture 3)
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-blade. This damage may
cause bolts to snap or parts of the
snow v-blade to bend.
Damage of this type is not covered by
the warranty.
