SAFETY INFORMATION
Please read and understand all Cautions, Notices, and Warnings in this manual before you begin. In order to protect you and your
ATV / TV, certain parts of the plow system and / or hardware are designed to fail when the equipment is over-stressed.
Follow these guidelines to ensure satisfactory operation:
• Read this manual and your ATV / TV operators manual before use.
• Periodically check for wear and tightness of all fasteners. Replace or re-torque fasteners as necessary.
• Before first use, set plow in the furthest right or left angled position to check for interference with the vehicle.
• Operate with extreme caution on slopes and rough terrain. Be familiar with the area before you plow.
• Be aware of immovable objects that could be hidden in the area you are plowing.
• To avoid damage when pushing snow into a pile, reverse direction before raising the plow blade.
• Do not ram the plow blade into piles of snow.
• For best results, set the suspension preload of your ATV / TV to the stiffest setting.
• To reduce steering effort and increase mobility, set the air pressure of your tires to the maximum pressure specification.
• The plow skids are adjustable. General skid setting is even with the plow wear bar bottom edge, higher settings reduce the
chance of rocks and gravel from being collected.
• To increase traction during plow operation, operators can try: Securing weight to the ATV / TV for additional tire downforce,
reducing tire air pressure, or installing tire chains.
