MOVING PARTS ENTANGLEMENT AND CRUSHING
HAZARD
Failure to observe these instructions could lead to
severe injury or death.
• Always check lift mechanism, straps or winch rope integrity
before plowing. Failure to do so may cause the plow to drop
suddenly from the up position and impact a low-lying object,
potentially ejecting the rider from the vehicle and causing
serious injury or death.
• Always be sure the latch lever handle is fully engaged before
plowing. In some instances it may be necessary to push the
handle to engage it into the plow base. Failure to properly
engage the plow may result in loss of vehicle control which
can lead to vehicle damage, personal injury, or even death.
• Never exceed 5 MPH with plow installed.
• Never operate the vehicle on side slopes greater than 10° with
the plow installed.
• Never operate this product if you are under 16 years of age.
• Never operate this product when under the infl uence of
drugs, alcohol or medications.
• Never operate the plow near bystanders.
• Never stand or ride on the plow.
• Always ensure area to be plowed is clear of pedestrians and
bystanders.
• Never remove the hook from the end of the winch rope. The
hook prevents the end of the winch rope from being pulled
into the roller fairlead. Removal of the hook increases the
chance that fi ngers or other extremities may be pulled into the
roller fairlead causing personal injury. Leave the winch hook
on and always follow safe winching techniques as described in
the Winching Guide included with your winch.
• Never winch with the rope outside of the roller fairlead.
Doing so can result in severe vehicle damage and rope
wear that can cause the winch rope to break suddenly and
potentially cause destructive vehicle damage and major injury
or death to riders and bystanders. Always route the rope
through the roller fairlead before winching.
Servicing Safety:
• Always ensure vehicle is stable and secure.
• Always lower plow completely for removal from vehicle.
• Always stay clear of moving parts and cables.
• Always keep others away when operating or adjusting plow.
• Always use appropriate personal protection equipment when
servicing, installing, or using product.
