SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Improper installation and operation could cause

personal injury and/or equipment and property damage.

Read and understand labels and the Owner's Manual

before installing, operating or making adjustments.

WARNING

Lower blade when vehicle is parked.

Temperature changes could change

hydraulic pressure, causing the blade to

drop unexpectedly or damaging hydraulic

components. Failure to do this could result in

serious personal injury.

WARNING

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.

WARNING

Keep hands and feet clear of the blade and

A-frame when mounting or removing the

snowplow. Moving or falling assemblies could

cause personal injury.

WARNING

Do not exceed GVWR or GAWR including

blade and ballast. The rating label is found on

driver-side vehicle door cornerpost.

To prevent accidental movement of the blade,

always turn the control OFF whenever the

HYDRAULIC SAFETY

Hydraulic ﬂ uid under pressure can cause skin

injection injury. If you are injured by hydraulic

ﬂ uid, get medical attention immediately.

• Always inspect hydraulic components and hoses

before using. Replace any damaged or worn parts

immediately.

• If you suspect a hose leak, DO NOT use your

hand to locate it. Use a piece of cardboard or

wood.

FUSES

The FISHER

electrical and hydraulic systems contain

several blade-style automotive fuses. If a problem

should occur and fuse replacement is necessary,

the replacement fuse must be of the same type and

amperage rating as the original. Installing a fuse with

a higher rating can damage the system and could start

a ﬁ re. Fuse Replacement, including fuse ratings and

locations, is located in the Maintenance Section of the

Owner's Manual.

PERSONAL SAFETY

in gear to prevent others from starting the vehicle

during installation or service.

your vehicle or snowplow.

• Do not wear jewelry or a necktie, and secure long

hair.

• Wear safety goggles to protect your eyes from

battery acid, gasoline, dirt and dust.

• Avoid touching hot surfaces such as the engine,

radiator, hoses and exhaust pipes.

• Always have a ﬁ re extinguisher rated BC handy,
