WARNING
OPERATING THE SNOWPLOW
CabCommand Hand-Held Control
The driver shall keep
bystanders clear of the blade
when it is being raised, lowered
or angled. Do not stand
between the vehicle and the
blade, or within 8 feet of a
moving blade. A moving or
falling blade could cause
personal injury.
CAUTION
To prevent accidental
movement of the blade, always
turn the ON/OFF switch to OFF
whenever the snowplow is not
in use. The control indicator
light will turn off.
Function Time Outs
All control functions, except for
LOWER, automatically time out—
stop—after a period of time. This is to
help prolong the battery charge. The
time-out period for the RAISE
function is 2.5 seconds, while all
others are 4.25 seconds.
The control will automatically turn off
after being idle for 20 minutes.
2. Press the PWR button on the
control. The control indicator
light will glow red indicating the
control is on. The control
indicator light will glow red
whenever the control ON/OFF
switch and the vehicle ignition
switch are both ON and the
plow plugs are connected to
the grill connectors.
SMOOTH STOP
The control automatically allows the
blade to coast to a stop. This results
in smoother operation, reduces the
shock to the hydraulic system and
increases hose and valve life.
1. Turn the vehicle ignition switch
to the ON or the ACCESSORY
position.

Plow Hydraulics
The MVP®snowplow
FloStat®hydraulic system
performs 10 blade
movement functions.
All functions require the
vehicle ignition (key) switch to be in
the run or accessory position and the
power to be activated on the
snowplow cab control.
Nine of the ten hydraulic functions
require energizing the electric motor,
shifting of solenoid cartridge spools
or activating p/o check valves. The
tenth function, lower, does not
energize the motor but requires
shifting of solenoid cartridge spools.
Operation of Electrical Circuit:
The electrical drive circuit that is used
for the MVP snowplow hydraulics is
defined as a low side drive system.

large current flow which energizes the
motor, which in-turn rotates the
internal pump and creates fluid flow.
(Motor relay does not energize in
“lower” function).
Testing Low Side Drive Systems:
To test a low side drive system,
connect the negative lead of the test
instrument (volt meter) to ground and
the positive lead to the negative side
of the load (coil, relay, etc.). A
reading of 12 volts should be
indicated when the load is not
activated. A reading of near 0 volts
when load is activated.
THEORY OF OPERATION
Low side drive provides a common
live hot (12V) to all of the loads (coils,
relay, etc.). When the cab control is
activated, the ground path is closed
to complete the circuit, energizing the
selected coils and/or relay. The
current flow through the coils
produces a magnetic field which
shifts the spools in the cartridges.
The cartridges direct the fluid flow to
the appropriate passages to produce
the selected blade movement
function. Current flow also energizes
the motor relay, closing the motor
relay contacts connecting the motor
to the battery through heavy electrical
cables. The heavy cables carry a

16
Lit. No. 21857 June 15, 2003
Plow Headlamps
The headlamp circuit operates using
a high side drive system. High side
drive provides a hot 12V source to
activate the loads (coils, relays, etc.)
that share a common ground. The
headlamp switching circuit uses two
single pole double throw (SPDT)
relays. When combined with the
snowplow plug-in headlamp harness
and the vehicle harness, the relays
will automatically switch between
plow and vehicle headlamps as the
plow plugs are connected and
disconnected.
The vehicle harness has a brown
wire that is spliced into the vehicle
park lamp circuit. This wire feeds the
plow park lamps through the grill
connector and also powers the coils
of both relays. The other terminal of
the relay coils is connected to the
black/orange ground wire which also
goes to the grill connector. When
both the plow and battery cable plugs
are connected to the grill connectors,
a ground is completed for the relay
coil. When the vehicle park lamps
are turned on and the plugs are
connected, the relay coils will be
activated. This causes the relay
contacts to switch from the normally
closed contacts to the normally open
contacts. The normally closed
contacts power the vehicle
headlamps. The normally open
contacts power the plow headlamps.
Refer to the Headlamp Test Diagram
in the Troubleshooting Guide.
It should be noted that:
• The relay with the yellow,
orange and black wires
operates the low beam
headlamps.
• The relay with the green, red
and white wires operates the
high beam headlamps.
• The parking lamp circuit
provides power to both relays
at the same time.
• Both plow plugs (12 pin and
battery cable) need to be
connected and the headlamp
switch must be on for the
relays to activate.
Daytime Running Lights
An additional fused pink wire is used
in place of the brown park circuit wire
to introduce power to the light relays.
The pink wire is connected to a circuit
controlled by the vehicle ignition
switch. When the vehicle ignition is
on and the grill connector plugs are
connected the relay coils will be
activated. This allows the DRLs to be
switched to the plow lights when the
vehicle headlamp switch is off. DRLs
use the same circuit as the regular
headlamps.
Testing High Side Drive Systems:
Connect the negative lead of the test
instrument (voltmeter) to ground and
positive lead to the positive side of
the load. A reading of 12 volts should
be indicated when the load is
activated; zero volts when load is not
activated.

showing the purpose of each of the
components in the system. Each
component is represented by a
graphical symbol. The hydraulic and
electrical legends list and describe
each of the symbols used in the
schematics for this guide.
The first two schematics show a
general overview of the complete
hydraulic and electrical systems. The
remainder of the schematics have
been altered to highlight flow of
hydraulic oil and electrical current for
each function the hydraulic unit
performs or flow of electrical current
for the snowplow and vehicle lights.

Controller Button: R/VEE
System Response:
1) By pressing the controller button,
the circuit board within the cab
control completes the ground path
for the electrical circuit.
2) Electrical current flows through
the motor relay, activating the
pump motor, and solenoid
cartridge valve S5, shifting its
spool.
3) Hydraulic oil from the pump flows
through solenoid cartridge valve
S2, P/O check valve (B) and into
the rod end of the right cylinder
causing it to retract.
4) Pressure within the hydraulic
circuit causes P/O check valves
(A) & (D) to open.
5) The retracting right cylinder
pushes the hydraulic oil out of its
base end, through solenoid
cartridge valves S6 & S5 & S4
and into the base end of the left
cylinder causing it to extend.
6) The extending left cylinder pushes
the hydraulic oil out of its rod end,
through P/O check valve (A),
solenoid cartridge valves S3 & S2
and back to the reservoir.
