1. To test all of the functions on the Power Plow, your
snowplow needs to be properly attached to the skid steer.
Refer to the Mounting & Dismounting label on the back of
the plow.
2. Complete the hydraulic connections with the skid steer
turned off. Note: Due to the various make and model skid
steer available, hydraulic couplings for the auxiliary hydraulic
connections are not provided. Consult your skidsteer’s
Operation Manual for the appropriate couplings needed.
Connect the couplings to the hoses for the pressure port
(“P”) and the tank port (“T”)on the manifold. Complete the
hydraulic installation by making the appropriate connections
at the skid steer.
WARNING: Always use caution when connecting
high-pressure hydraulic fittings. Hydraulic fluid
under pressure can puncture skin causing serious
injury or death. In the event of a hydraulic leak,
relieve hydraulic pressure before loosening fittings.
If injured, seek emergency medical help
immediately.
3. Start the skid steer and begin to initiate the Power Plow’s
blade functions. Note: Depending on the skid steer model, it
may be necessary to turn on the skid steer’s auxiliary
hydraulic switch prior to operating the plow. The left switch
operates the driver’s side wing. Push the switch “up” to
extend the wing and “down” to retract the wing. Push the
center switch “up” to angle left and “down” to angle right.
The right switch operates the passenger’s side wing and
works the same as the left switch. Upon initiating the
switches on the pistol grip control, you may notice a plow
function is slow or delayed. The hydraulic fluid is filling the
cylinders and replacing air in the system. Monitor the
hydraulic fluid level in your skid steer, and fill as necessary.
