Lit. No. 72451, Rev. 03 31 October 15, 2019
MAINTENANCE
FUSE REPLACEMENT
The vehicle control harness contains one
2A automotive-style fuse and the hydraulic unit
contains two 4A automotive-style fuses.
The control fuse is "hot" when the vehicle ignition
switch is ON.
Your system may also include a 200A fuse between
the battery and vehicle battery cable.
If a problem should occur and fuse replacement is
necessary, the replacement fuse must be of the same
type and amperage rating as the original. Installing a
fuse with a higher rating can damage the system and
could start a re.
SNOWPLOW VEHICLE BATTERY
BEST PRACTICES
• Keep all battery connections tight and clean. Poor
connections cause higher power consumption.
• Before the snow season, conrm that the battery
is fully charged: 12.7V to 12.8V with the engine
OFF. Beginning the plowing season with a weak
battery results in deep-cycle depletion of the
battery charge.
• If the battery charge level is low or questionable,
hook up a battery charger when the vehicle is not
in use. If the battery cannot achieve or maintain a
full charge, replace it. (On dual-battery vehicles,
always replace both batteries even if only one of
them is bad.)
• Avoid leaving the snowplow vehicle parked
(unused) for 3 weeks or longer.
• Parking a vehicle with the battery in a discharged
state can result in permanent battery damage.
• Avoid operating the snowplow without the vehicle
engine running.
VEHICLE
The snowplow operating vehicle shall be maintained
according to manufacturer's recommendations.
Tire pressure shall be maintained according to
manufacturer's recommendation.
RECYCLE
When your snowplow has performed its useful life,
the majority of its components can be recycled as
steel or aluminum. Hydraulic uid shall be disposed of
according to local regulations. Balance of parts made
from plastic shall be disposed of in customary manner.
