JOYSTICK CONTROL WITH SECURITY GUARD™ SNOWPLOW ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
WARNING
To prevent accidental movement of the
blade, always move the ON/OFF switch to
OFF whenever the snowplow is not in use.
The power indicator light will turn OFF.
Before Activating the
SECURITY GUARD System:
Install the control as stated in the Joystick Control
Kit Installation Instructions, and check all snowplow
functions as described below.
OPERATING THE JOYSTICK CONTROL
1. Turn the vehicle ignition switch to the "ON" or
"ACCESSORY" position.
2. Move the slide switch on the side of the control
to the "ON" position. The power indicator light
glows red, indicating the control is ON. The
indicator light glows red whenever the control
and the vehicle ignition switch are both ON and
the electrical connections to the snowplow are
completed.
The ON/OFF switch operates as an emergency
stop if required.
CONTROL OVERVIEW
The SECURITY GUARD feature was developed
as an electrical anti-theft system for the half-ton
snowplows. The system provides a deterrent from
theft and/or non-permitted use by allowing you
to electronically lock the snowplow's hydraulic
functions.

All half-ton snowplow controls come equipped
with the SECURITY GUARD system. To use
this function, you must complete the "Activation"
process.
Each control is equipped with an ON/OFF switch
and an indicator light to show when the control is
powered ON or OFF. The controls are powered by
the vehicle's battery, so your vehicle ignition (key)
switch must be ON to use the controls.
Function Time-Outs
All control functions, except LOWER/FLOAT, time
out (stop) automatically after a period of time. This
is to limit the amount of electrical energy required
from the vehicle.
NOTE: If control function times out before
desired blade movement is complete, release
the lever to the center position, then move
back into the desired function.
Automatic Shutdown
The control will automatically turn OFF after being
idle for 20 minutes. To reactivate the control after a
shutdown, move the ON/OFF switch to OFF, then
back to ON.
