Attention!
Before starting up the implement read the instructions on safety and han-
dling for operation of the entire implement and connection to the tractor.
3.1 Preparations on the snow blade
The prerequisite for attaching the snow blade is a tractor with front lift and coupling trian-
gle, as well as two coupling sockets for additional hydraulics. The following preparations
must be made for connecting the additional hydraulics.
1. Remove the two blind plugs on the hydraulic cylinder of the snow blade. To do this
you require a size 6 hexagon screwdriver.
2. Screw the two angled branch pieces into the hydraulic cylinder and pay attention to
the position of the angle pieces as shown in Fig. 2.
3. Screw the reducers into the quick-connect nipples and then screw in both together
on the hydraulic hose as shown in Fig. 3.

3.2 Attaching the snow blade on the tractor
The implement is attached without tools via the quick-coupling triangle, as described be-
low.
1. To do this position the snow blade in such a manner that you can drive right up to its
coupling triangle.
2. The coupling triangle of the front lift is lowered all the way and is brought under the
triangle of the machine by driving the tractor forward. If this is not easily possible, the
coupling triangle can be adapted the tractor conditions by adjusting the attachment
flange. To do this you must loosen the 4 threaded unions and shift the coupling tri-
angle up or down on the attachment flange. The final step is to retighten the
threaded unions.

3. Lifting the front power lift hooks its coupling triangle in under coupling triangle of the
snow blade.
4. Then the locking pins on the coupling triangle must be inserted and secured via the
spring cotter pin. If this is not possible then the locking part must be readjusted. To
do this both nuts are loosened, the locking part is adjusted, the bolt is inserted and
then it is properly tightened.

5. Then the two hydraulic hoses, for the angle adjustment of the snow blade must be
fitted onto the coupling sockets of the additional hydraulic system.

Attention!
Both hydraulic connections must be connected on the cylinder in order to
swing the snow blade to the left as well as to the right.
6. Now lift the snow blade via the tractor hydraulic system and pull out the spring cotter
pin of the parking rest. Pull the parking rest all the way up and secure its position by
inserting the spring cotter pin into the lowest bore.

Attention!
Before clearing snow, never forget to pull the parking rest up to drive posi-
tion and to secure it. The snow blade can be damaged on uneven ground if
the parking rest remains hanging.
