SAFTEY PRECAUTIONS should be used when Quik
Lift® is in a RAISED position. LOWER plow to the
ground when vehicle is PARKED.
OVERHAUL and SERVICE information is covered on
separate instructions.
Note:
1. Connect ground cable to negative side of battery
for a solid connection to ground.
2. Caution: Route all cables away from moving engine
parts, Manifolds, and sharp sheet metal.
3. For weather protection, tape all elcetrical
connections at front of vehicle.
4. The vehicle must be equipped with a "Heavy
Duty Battery" (70 Amp, Hr. Min.), 550 C.C.A. and
"Alternator" (60 Amp. Min.) to obtain maximum
performance.
5. Follow these instructions explicitly. Warranty does
not apply to a Meyer product which has been
negligently or improperly assembled or installed.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
A. Install the V-66 Lift Assembly (1) to Lift Frame
(Using bolts supplied in the mounting carton),
with the Electric Motor toward the left hand side
(Driver's side); attach the lift ram in the outer hole
of the Lift Arm.
NOTE: If V-66 is to be used on the older style
(fixed) mountings, the unit may require being
rotated 180 degrees with the Electric Motor to the
right hand side (Passenger Side) of the vehicle.
B. Remove shipping plug from filler hole and install
Relief Valve Kit (16). Tighten to 100 - 125 in. lbs.
C. Install Coupler Cap and Plug (8a,b) onto Power
Angling Block per illustration.
D. Install Pigtail (10) to Lift Unit (1) with the red
leg to the (+) motor stud and black leg to the
(-) motor stud as per figure 2A. Attach the other
black leg of Pigtail (10) to the base of the Lift
Unit (1) as per figure 2 using bolt (18) and
lockwasher (25). Place lockwasher (25) between
cable terminal and base so it bites into paint
for proper ground.
E. When Lift (1) is removed, Protect the sockets
from corrosion by using Weather Plugs (14&15).
ADDITIONAL BATTERY CONNECTORS:
a. When attaching cables to battery with side post
terminals, use M.P. Adaptor Part # 21976 and attach
as shown in figure 1.
b. Figure 2 illustrates the method of using a repair type
terminal connector which is original equipment on
some vehicles. . 1 . 2

Warning:
Lift Arm extends beyond bumper of vehicle. To
minimize damage from a front-end collision, lift arm
should be removed from the vehicle when snow
plow is not in use.
F. Choose a convenient location for the control switch.
If the desired location is the dashboard, install
Bracket (19) by drilling 2 holes in the
dashboard and secure using Round head
Machine Screws (23) and Locknuts (22). Install
Back-up Plate (21) behind dash for added
stiffness. See figure 3. Also apply Danger Decal
(27) to Dashboard.
G. To mount control to shift lever, use Bracket (19),
Clamp Plate (20), Round Head Machine Screws
(23) and Locknuts (22). See figure 3.
H. See seperate instructions for plow light installation.
I. Use Bushing (26) where Harness (2) is routed
through firewall and radiator support panel.
Requires 7/8" diameter hole . Be certain to route
all wiring around hot or moving engine parts, any
sharp sheet metal. Protection must be provided
to guard against wire damage at these points. All
excess or loose wire must be neatly secured using
wire ties. Fused lead from wiring Harness (2) must
be attached to terminal in fuse panel that is
activated only when the ignition key is "on." The
five colored wires in Harness (2) must be routed
through grill to V-66 unit.
J. Install Starter solenoid (3) to metal surface in engine
compartment using Screws (24). (Solenoid must
be grounded to operate). Slide Weather Plugs
(14&15) over Power Cable (11) and Ground Cable
(12). Attach Red Power Cable (11) to large terminal
on Starter solenoid (3) and route plug-end to front
grill area of truck. Attach Black Ground Cable (12)
to negative (-) terminal of battery and route plug-
end to front grill area. Attach 36" Power Cable
(13) to positive (+) terminal of battery and
remaining large terminal on Starter Solenoid (3).
Attach small white wire from harness (2) to small
terminal on Starter Solenoid (3).
POWER ANGLING CYLINDERS
Attach Power Angling Cylinders (4 & 9) to Pivot
Assembly and Moldboard Wings using Bolts (29 & 30)
and Locknuts (31).
Make certain Ram (4) with hose (5) and Male-half of
couple (7) is on Drivers's side and Ram (9) with Hose
(5) and Female-half of coupler (7) is on Passenger-side.
Note when the Moldboard assembly is removed from
the vehicle, to prevent contamination to the Couplers
and Hydraulic system, the L.H. and R. H. Power Angling
hoses must be re-attached by plugging the Coupler
(7a, 7b) together. Also where the power angling hoses
were uncoupled at the hydraulic unit, attach coupler
Cap (8a) and Plug (8b) to the female and male halves
of coupler.
Power angling cylinders furnished with the Quick Lift®
have not been factory filled. It will be necessary to fill
and add fluid to Reservoir or to bleed the Power Angling
Cylinders, proceed as follows:
a. Remove Relief Valve (16) from Reservoir to add
fluid during charging and bleeding.
b. Temporarily loosen hose connections at the R.H.,
L.H. Power angling Cylinders. Base end of cylinder
must be higher than rod end to enable trapped air
to escape.
c. Angle the plow in both directions until fluid leaks
out at both points in a steady flow.
d. Retighten the hose connections
Proper Fluid level is 1-1/2" below filler hole. Oil level
should be checked with the lift arm fully retracted
(down).
