CMW
Start Plowing
1. Fasten and adjust seat belt.
2. Start tractor. See page 78 for start-up procedures.
3. Adjust throttle to low idle.
4. Check that ground drive control is in neutral.
5. Lower reel carrier to lowest position possible, if equipped.
6. If equipped with backfill blade tilt/attachment swing valve and control, move selector to swing position.
7. If equipped with reel winder, select reel winder on function switch. Lower reel winder arm to disengage
reel winder from product spool.
8. Raise backfill blade.
9. Move ground drive control to forward at plowing speed and lower plow blade into ground.
10. Increase engine speed to full throttle.
11. Rotate attachment speed/direction control to attachment speed that allows the least tractor vibration at
the highest ground drive possible without track slippage. PLOW WILL VIBRATE.
12. Check cable for damage during plowing. Run continuity checks on electric cable and check pipe
pressure. Damage can result from improper operation, incorrect blade choice, striking underground
obstructions, or other conditions.
Finish Plowing
1. When installation is complete, move ground drive control to neutral.
2. With vibrator running, lower throttle speed and raise plow to ground level.

NOTICE: Use extreme caution when operating reel carrier on sloped surfaces.

NOTICE: Do not operate vibrator when plow is out of the ground. This will cause excessive
vibration resulting in rapid wear, and possible damage to the unit and product being installed.
