OPERATIONAL TEST AND FINAL ADJUSTMENTS

FINAL INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT

WARNING

Keep 8' clear of the blade when it is being

raised, lowered, or angled. Do not stand

between the vehicle and blade or directly in

front of the blade. If the blade hits or drops on

you, you could be seriously injured.

1. Attach snowplow to the vehicle according to

the instructions on the back of the blade. With

snowplow lowered to the ground and on level

pavement, measure from the ground to the top

of the T‑frame. This distance must be 9‑3/4" to

11‑1/4".

2. With the snowplow attached and on the ground,

place the stand arm in the lower position with

the lock pin engaged and with the stand shoe

fully retracted in the "UP" position. Measure the

distance from the ground to the bottom of the

stand shoe. This distance should be 1‑3/8" to

2‑1/8". The stand can be adjusted to achieve this

distance by removing the roll pin and selecting the

proper hole in the stand stem. When the stand

height is correct, cut and remove the spring tie.

Lit. No. 74914, Rev. 01

3. Final lift chain link adjustment must be made

after the snowplow is assembled with the proper

pivot plate position. On a level surface with the

snowplow on the ground and the lift ram fully

collapsed, attach the chains to the lift arm hooks

in the tightest possible link. This adjustment will

provide for optimum transport height, blade float,

and stacking stop clearance. When chain tension

is correct, the T‑frame will contact the lift frame

when the blade is fully raised.

4. Fully raise the blade and verify that it does not

block the headlamp beams. If the blade blocks the

headlamp beams, lower the blade to the ground,

collapse the lift ram, and lengthen each chain by

one link. Repeat this process, lengthening the

chains by one link each time, until the blade does

not block the headlamp beams.

5. Raise and lower the snowplow in "Retract" (vee)

position to verify that the hydraulic hoses bow

outward and do not interfere with snowplow

components.

NOTE: Ensure that the base-end angle ram hoses

are wrapped over the diagonal brace. Adjust

hoses, fittings, and wraps as necessary to prevent

any hoses from being twisted or pinched.
