Why does my Sno-Way 22SKD motor keep running and not shut off?
If the motor of your Sno-Way Snow Blower continues to run and will not shut off, it could be due to shorted wires. Inspect all wires starting at the solenoid and working back to the vehicle. Alternatively, the solenoid itself might be internally shorted, requiring replacement.
What to do if a new Sno-Way 22SKD plow lifts but doesn't hold?
If your new Sno-Way Snow Blower plow lifts but does not hold, it could be due to dirt in the check valve or in the lower valve (B). Try cycling the raise and lower system to flush out any debris or unstick the valve.
Why doesn't my Sno-Way Snow Blower hold its angle when pushing snow?
If your Sno-Way Snow Blower does not hold its angle, especially when pushing snow, it may be due to a crossover relief valve with a pressure setting that is too low, sticking, or stuck. In this case, replace the crossover relief valve. Another possible cause is a pilot check valve with debris or a damaged piston. Remove the pilot check valve and inspect both cartridges and the piston. If the valve has external springs, make sure they are not damaged and installed properly. Clean the valves and reinstall them.
What to do if my Sno-Way Snow Blower unit does not hold its angle?
If your Sno-Way Snow Blower unit does not hold its angle, especially when pushing snow or during transport, the possible causes include: * Crossover relief valve pressure setting is too low. * Crossover relief valve is sticking or stuck. * The snow is too heavy or wet. * Faulty skid loader valve. If the snow is too heavy or wet, take smaller passes. For other causes, further diagnostics may be required.
Why is my Sno-Way 22SKD Snow Blower unit angling very slowly?
If your Sno-Way Snow Blower is angling very slowly, it could be due to several reasons: * Low hydraulic fluid level. * Crossover relief valve sticking or stuck. * Crossover relief valve pressure setting too low. * Improper oil viscosity for the outside air temperature, or the unit is not at normal operating temperature. Refer to the maintenance section for information on hydraulic fluid level and oil viscosity. Other potential issues include a damaged cylinder, improperly torqued or dry cylinder packing, or a faulty skid loader valve.
What to do if Sno-Way 22SKD Snow Blower blade will not angle?
If the blade of your Sno-Way Snow Blower will not angle, possible causes include: * Low hydraulic fluid level. * Crossover pressure relief valve setting too low. * Angle cylinder binding or bent. * Crossover relief valve sticking or stuck. * Faulty skid loader valve. Check the hydraulic fluid level as described in the Maintenance section. For other potential issues, further diagnostics may be required.
Why does my Sno-Way Snow Blower unit angle in only one direction?
If your Sno-Way Snow Blower unit only angles in one direction, the possible causes are: * Crossover relief valve sticking or stuck. * Crossover relief valve pressure setting too low. * Angle cylinder binding. * Faulty skid loader valve.
How to troubleshoot a Sno-Way 22SKD Snow Blower motor that won't run or runs slow?
If your Sno-Way Snow Blower motor won't run or runs slowly, several issues could be the cause. First, check the circuit breaker or the 250A fuse at the battery, as well as the 10A fuse on the pump harness. If any fuse is blown, inspect all electrical wiring to find out why and then replace the fuse. Alternatively, the motor solenoid may have failed, requiring replacement. The motor itself might be seized; if so, remove and replace it, torquing the motor bolts between 50 to 60 inch pounds. Worn motor brushes can also cause this issue, necessitating motor replacement. Lastly, a damaged seal between the motor and pump could allow oil to enter the motor housing. In this case, remove the motor, drain the oil reservoir, and replace the pump seal. If possible, clean and reassemble the motor; othe...
What to do if the blade on my Sno-Way 22SKD Snow Blower won't lift, but the motor runs?
If the motor of your Sno-Way Snow Blower runs but the blade won't lift, there are several potential causes: * The hydraulic fluid level might be low. Fill it to the fill line on the reservoir using Sno-Way hydraulic fluid. * The breather cap could be plugged. Remove and replace it. * The main system pressure relief valve setting might be improper. Use a 3000 psi gauge plumbed into the gauge port (GP) and adjust the main pressure relief screw to the correct pressure. * A coil on valve (F) could be faulty. Check for magnetism on coil (F). If there is none, swap it with coil (A). If the problem moves to the angle function, the coil is bad and needs to be replaced. * The lower valve (F) could be stuck. Check for magnetism on the 'F' coil. Remove the 'F' valve and swap it with the 'E...
Why is my Sno-Way 22SKD blade lifting so slowly?
If your Sno-Way Snow Blower blade lifts slowly, several factors could be responsible. Ensure the hydraulic fluid level is adequate; fill it to the fill line on the reservoir using Sno-Way hydraulic fluid. A plugged breather cap can also cause slow lifting, so remove and replace it. An improperly set main system pressure relief valve could be the issue; use a 3000 psi gauge plumbed into the gauge port (GP) to adjust the main pressure relief screw to the correct pressure. Additionally, check for a plugged pick-up tube filter by removing the hydraulic fluid and tank, then inspecting and cleaning or replacing the filter screen if necessary. Using the wrong oil viscosity for the outside temperature, or ice in the hydraulic tank, can also slow the lift; change the oil with Sno-Way hydraulic flui...
