A. Lowered or Float Position
Pushing the joystick forward, toward the “Lower/
Float” designation on the label, will lower your
straight blade to the ground.Pushing the joystick
ahead until the detent “locks” the control will allow
the snowplow to “float”, or follow the contour of
the ground when moving forward or backward.
B. Raised Position
Pulling the joystick back, toward the “Raise”
designation on the label, will lift your straight
blade off of the ground. To stop raising the plow,
simply return the joystick to its “neutral” or center
position.The snowplow has reached its maximum
raised position when the blade stops lifting –
return the joystick to its neutral position.
C. Angled Right Position
To angle your straight blade to the right, position
the joystick toward the “R” on the label. To stop
angling the plow, return the joystick to its “neutral”
or center position.The snowplow has reached its
maximum angled position when the blade stops
moving to the right side.
D. Angled Left Position
To angle your straight blade to the left, position
the joystick toward the “L” on the label. To stop
angling the plow, return the joystick to its “neutral”
or center position.The snowplow has reached its
maximum angled position when the blade stops
moving to the left side.
***** IMPORTANT *****
To prevent premature failure of the power
contactor (solenoid),initiate the plow function
and return the joystick to its neutral or center
position—except float. DONOT hold the joy-
stick in any position that allows the pump to
continuously run after the plow has reached
its maximum degree of movement. This will
reduce the useful life of the solenoid.
