Lit. No. 43894, Rev. 02 62 November 1, 2016
OPERATING YOUR SNOWPLOW
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
The Insta‑Act
®
hydraulic unit's valve manifold
includes relief valves to prevent damage to the
blade or vehicle if an obstacle is hit at either end
of the blade. When force against the blade causes
the pressure in an extended ram to exceed
set limits, the relief valve opens allowing uid to
escape, and the ram retracts.
For hydraulic uid type and lling instructions, see
"Annual Fluid Change" under "Hydraulic System"
in the Maintenance section of this manual.
