Weight Rating (GAWR), and total Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). The
specic ratings for your vehicle are noted on the safety compliance certication

CAUTION: The installation of a Snow Plow may have a bearing on the

vehicle’s owner’s manual or your vehicle dealer.
7. The sudden jarring stop incurred when hitting hidden obstacles in the snow
could trigger release of your vehicle’s airbags . Consult your vehicle manual or
your vehicle dealer to mitigate this.
8. Should it become necessary to place the vehicle on a hoist, rst remove the
blade assembly.
DRIVING
CAUTION: Always be certain the quick-mount locking plates on your custom
front mount are secured. If the plow is insecurely attached to the mount, it will
likely pull away from the vehicle, fall o and cause signicant damage
and/or injury.
1. The use of lights is recommended, if not required by local regulations, while
plowing at night. Regular vehicle headlights will likely be obscured by the blade.
2. Do not drive on public roads with the Snow Plow attached at the front of your
vehicle.
3. Connect a safety hook when transporting the Snow Plow in the raised position.
4. Do not attempt to change the blade position while traveling as you could
accidentally suddenly lower the plow blade.
WARNING! Consult local/ provincial laws regarding vehicle restrictions
that might apply when the Snow Plow is not attached. Such restrictions may
mandate the removal of the mounting, lift frame, lift arm, winch mechanism or
any other protruding elements mounted to the front of the vehicle during certain
times of the year.
