time carefully read this operating manual and all safety advice.
The Smart and Uni snow plow is a light duty plow intended exclusively for
plowing roads, car parks, lots which are slightly uneven or similar jobs. Utilizing the
plow for other tasks will be understood to be against its intended use. Fulfilling the

Not withstanding the rules of the machine's utilization, its proper use consists
of maintenance and keeping it in good condition as well as the use exclusively of
original spare parts.
The snow plow should be operated, serviced and repaired only by personnel
familiar with its technical characteristics and with rules of safe conduct.
Regulations regarding accident prevention and all basic regulations regarding
safety and work hygiene, as well as all traffic regulations should always be observed.
The manufacturer assumes no responsibility for damages resulting from self-
made repairs or modifications of the snow plow carried out without manufacturer's
authorization.
In the event of any doubts connected with the operation or utilization of the
plow please contact the manufacturer's service department.
When the snow plow is sold it is mandatory to pass on the operating manual to
the new owner and keep a signed written confirmation of this fact.
ATTENTION

2. SAFETY
WARNING!
Only personnel familiar with this operating manual may operate
the snow plow. Every operator of the plow should be fully aware of
existing dangers and should know how to avoid those dangers.
2.1. Safety rules
 Before operation the operator must read this operating manual.
 Unfamiliarity with the operating manual can lead to damaging of the plow.
 Using the plow for purposes other than the intended use is forbidden.
 Introducing of changes to the construction without manufacturer's approval is forbidden.
 Observe the regulations of the traffic code while operating the plow.
 Operating speeds of the tractor-plow unit should be appropriate to working conditions, such
as: level of unevenness, rocks, curbs and other immovable obstacles.
 Low operating speeds are recommended – using low gears of the tractor. Use of higher speeds
can cause injury to the driver and damage to the plow and the front TPH (three-point hitch) of
the tractor.
 Unauthorized personnel can not remain in the vicinity of the plow.
 Before starting work conduct a check of the device and especially the condition of the main
connections of the plow and the connection of the plow to the tractor.
 In the event of the necessity of working under a plow raised on the TPH of the tractor the
plow must be secured so that it does not fall.
 The condition of bolt connections and other connecting elements should be periodically
checked. Operation with damaged connections is forbidden.
 Carrying people or loads on the plow during transport or operation is forbidden.
 Use original pins and safeguards to connect the plow to the tractor.
 When standing the plow should be in the parking position (Fig. 12, item a).
 Damaged hydraulic hoses and other elements of the hydraulic system should be replaced.
 Use only original spare parts which are purchased at our company store or at a dealership.
 During operation, maintenance or adjustment always use protective gloves.
 Do not leave the tractor and plow on inclines. If such need occurs turn off the engine, engage
the parking brake and lower the plow.
 The plow should be stored in a covered area in the retracted position – with the actuators
retracted to protect the piston rods.
WARNING!
Ensuring the safety of the work area is the responsibility of the person
operating the machine.

2.3. Dangers and prohibitions
WARNING!
Even though the manufacturer of the plow SaMASZ Sp. z o. o.
Bialystok, in order to eliminate danger, assumes responsibility for
the design and construction of its plows, some elements of risk (so
called residual risk) are unavoidable during plow use.
WARNING!
Existing residual risk mainly results from inappropriate behavior of
the snow plow operator and not adhering to the rules of the operating
manual.
WARNING!
While assessing residual risk the snow plow is treated as a machine
which to the moment of its manufacture was designed and constructed
according to the level of technology used at the time of its
manufacture.
WARNING!
The danger of injury occurs during replacement of any working
elements with sharp edges. During all repairs or maintenance always
wear protective gloves.
PROHIBITIONS!
Remember the following prohibitions during snow plow operation.
 Operation of the plow under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medications which reduce
motor skills is forbidden.
 Operation of the plow by unauthorized or untrained personnel is forbidden.
 Using the plow for activities other than those described in the operating manual is forbidden.
2.4. Transport and Delivery
ATTENTION!
The snow plow is delivered assembled, fully adjusted and ready for use.
During transport the snow plow should be on a level and hard surface and should be secured
using transport belts to prevent it from shifting. When loading the plow on a transport vehicle it
should be lifted using transport hooks/openings which are marked with special labels. Use only
a lift/hoist with the lifting capacity no smaller than the weight of the snow plow.

3. INTENDED USE AND CONSTRUCTION
The Smart plows are a light duty plow intended for use on roads, car parks, lots which are
slightly uneven or similar jobs.
Thoroughly tested construction and the right choice of materials ensure a high reliability and
durability of our products. The Smart snow plow generally consists of a mounting system and an
adjustable operating system controlled through a hydraulic actuator. Dual directional actuator is
controlled using the tractor's hydraulic system. More detailed construction of the Smart snow
plow has been illustrated on the picture below.

The Smart plows have been designed so that there remains a possibility to mount them on
the small municipal tractors, which because of the special construction of the front three point
hitch (TPH) cannot accept mounts of the cat. I TUZ type (mounting pin distance 683 mm).
The municipal mounting system (mounting pin distance 400 mm) has been designed for
the purpose of replacing the standard mounting system (Fig. 5).

Additionally as optional equipment for the Smart 180 (K) plow support wheels or skids
may be purchased, reducing the pressure of the plow on the ground which extends the life span of
the rubber blade inserts or the metal blade inserts (Fig. 6).
