Snowplow Operation 03
Snowplow Operation
Your snowplow is the most advanced and versatile straight blade on the market.The easy-to-use joystick control allows you to automatically adjust the plow blade into an infinite number of plowing positions. Review the illustrations below for instruction on maneuvering your snowplow.
A.
B.
C.
D.
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. DO NOT hold the joy­stick 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.

Assembly Instructions
Unpacking & Inspection
Your Blizzard straight blade has been packaged to withstand transit and weather related damage.Fully inspect all components upon receipt of your plow. In the event of shipping damage or missing parts, immediately contact our Customer Service Depar tment toll free at 1-888-680-8600.
Begin unpacking and inspection in the following order:
1. Remove the shipping document from the end panel of the pallet wrap. Retain all documentation for your records.
2. All wood framing and polyethylene material should be removed from the pallet for easy access to the snowplow.
3. Due to the odd shaped components and size of several assembly parts, various cable ties and corrugated material are used for scratch resistance and package orientation. Please remove these items prior to assembly.
4. Place the main blade assembly on a flat, level surface.
Once you have inspected all parts and removed all packaging materials, your snowplow is ready to be fully assembled.
Pallet Wrap End Panel
The tear resistant woven polyethylene pallet wrap contains a moisture barrier to help protect all packaged components and keep out the most inclement weather during shipping and storage. The end panel of the pallet cover contains impor­tant information regarding the snowplow model and the plow’s serial number.Both of these num­bers are given together. The first three digits and/or two letters in the the number indicated is always the plow model 700LD , 760LD, 760 or 800 – and the entire seven (nine) digit number make up the entire serial number.The shipping docu­ment is also attached to the end panel.Be sure to retain this list for your records.

Moldboard & A-Frame Assembly
1. Begin the moldboard assembly by positioning the PIVOT BEAM and A-FRAME near the connecting points at the rear of the blade between the two center support ribs. Position the pivot beam between the two support ribs until the connecting points on the beam align with those on the plow. Inser t one 3/4"-10 x 3" (2" shank) hex head cap screw through each mounting hole and secure with a 3/4"-10 top lock nut. Tighten each nut until it is snug with the pivot beam.
CAUTION:Do not over tighten hex head n uts! Binding may prohibit the pivot beam from moving properly on the plow.
Note:T o aid in the remaining installation, rotate the spring loaded kick­stand clockwise until it locks into place.Adjust the foot on the stand arm so the height of the A-frame, at its mount points, is 12-1/2" to level ground (See the diagram to the right). Tighten both of the 1/2"-13 top lock nuts on the kickstand.
2. Position each ANGLE CYLINDER with the rod end of the cylinder in the pivot beam and the hydraulic hose port facing away from the A-frame.Secure the cylinder to the pivot beam with one 3/4" x 4-1/2" CLEVIS PIN and one 1/4" x 1-1/2" HAMMERLOCK COTTER PIN.
Note:The hammerlock cotter pin will “lock” itself into place once the head of the pin is struck. It is not necessary to bend the pin further upon installation. Extend each cylinder rod until the cylinder base
mounting hole aligns with the hole on the A-frame angle cylinder bracket. At this point, insert another clevis pin and secure it with a cotter pin.Repeat the same installation for the opposite angle cylinder.
3. Remove each dust cap from both of the hydraulic angle cylinder ports and attach one 9/16"-18 x 9/16"-18 90˚ ADJUSTABLE ELBOW O.R.B. ADAPTER to each port. Note: All of the hydraulic adapters can be
found packaged with the manif old assembly.Reference the table on page 33 for proper torque specifications. Each adapter should be
angled toward the top of the moldboard.Connect the 3/8" x 24" hydraulic hose, labeled #1, to the driver’ s side angle cylinder adapter. Attach the 3/8" x 24" hydraulic hose, identified by a #2, to the passenger’s side angle cylinder adapter.Be careful not to overtighten the hose con­nections. Route both hoses over the top of each angle cylinder.
4. Next, remove both of the plastic dust caps from the HYDRAULIC LIFT CYLINDER ports. Attach one 7/16"-20 x 7/16"-20 45˚ ADJUST­ABLE ELBOW O.R.B. ADAPTER to the driver’s side port and one 7/16"-20 x 7/16"-20 MALE O.R.B.CONNECTOR ADAPTER to the passenger’s side port. Once the adapters have been installed on the cylinder, connect the HYDRAULIC HOSES.Note: Position the fittings
in the cylinder port such that the hoses install directly in the center of the A-frame access holes.A hose installed too close to the edge of the opening may work itself free with the operation of the lift cylinder and/ or movement of the plow. The 45˚ adapter on the driver’s side of the
cylinder receives a 1/4" x 17" hose identified by a label containing the number 3.Connect the 45˚ angle on the hose to the hydr aulic adapter on the cylinder.The male connector adapter on the passenger’s side of the cylinder receives a 1/4" x 15" hose identified by a label contain­ing the number 4.Tighten the 45˚ end of the hose to the hydraulic
The kickstand is mounted to the side of the pivot beam with one 1/2"-13 x 4-1/2" hex cap screw and top lock nut. To pivot the kickstand, simply pull the spring loaded leg out and rotate it until the pin locks into place.The kickstand also has an adjustable foot that can be moved to accom­modate varying vehicle heights. The proper height of your snowplow mounting points to level ground should be set at 12-1/2".

adapter on the cylinder.Both hoses should be routed through the tri­angular openings in the A-frame.
5. Begin the draw latch installation by first removing the DRAW LATCH MOUNT PIN & SPACER from the assembly. By removing this pin, the INNER DRAW LATCH PLATES can swing free.Proceed to remove the INNER DRAW LATCH PLATE LIFT CYLINDER MOUNT PIN. Position the plates on either side of the lift/lo w er cylinder rod and insert the pin through the plates and cylinder rod.With the cylinder connected to the inner draw latch plates, rotate the draw latch assembly toward the draw latch mount holes on the A-frame.Align the holes in the outer draw latch plate with those of the inner draw latch plates and the A-frame. Note: The A-FRAME LATCH, located at the rear center of
the A-frame, should be raised up to insert the draw latch mount pin. Pull the A-FRAME LATCH PULL PIN out and rotate the latch counter­clockwise if it is locked into position.Secure the assembly to the A-frame
by replacing the draw latch mount pin and spacer.Reset the A-frame latch so the A-frame latch pull pin locks into place.
Once you have completed the draw latch installation, we will shift our attention to assembly of the manifold.The manifold, pump and coil harness have been joined together at the factory; however, the manifold contains several components that you will need to install prior to securing the assembly to the A-frame.
6. Each of the 4 HOSE PORTS on the HYDRAULIC MANIFOLD are covered with stretch wrap .Remove the wrap and install the appropriate fitting (illustrated on page7) in its respective port.
Note: All por ts are identified by a stamped number on the manifold. The numbers also identify the hydraulic functions, which can be ref­erenced on the label under the hydraulic pump and manifold cover (see illustration on page 7).

The draw latch consists of a series of intercon­nected plates and pins that attach to the A-frame and the hydraulic lift cylinder.
Draw Pin
A-Frame Latch Lock Pin
A-Frame Latch
To mount the straight blade, the A-frame latch should be lowered over the draw pin– this allows the draw latch to pull the plow into the undercar­riage. Once the plow is safely attached to the undercarriage, rotate the A-frame latch counter­clockwise until the lock pin snaps into place.The A-frame latch is only used to mount the plow.
Do not allow the lock pin to set behind the pin catch hole in the raised position.The A-frame latch should always be locked in place when not in use.

08 Moldboard & A-frame Assembly (cont.)
Secure one 3/8"-16 x 3/4" hex head cap screw and 3/8" flat washer through the top mount hole in the bracket and into the pump. Insert one 3/8"-16 x 1-3/4" threaded stud and 3/8"-16 jam nylon insert lock nut through the bottom mount hole in the bracket and into the pump. The threaded stud should bottom out in the pump.Note:A medium
strength threadlocker , such as Loctite®242® should be used on both of the pump mount fasteners.This will help prev ent the fasteners from working free.
8. Once the pump and manifold assembly is in place, connect the hydraulic hoses to their respectiv e adapters on the manifold. Remember, the labeling on the hydraulic hoses correspond with the stamped numbers on the manifold.
Begin installing the hoses with the driver’s side r aise cylinder hose (#3). Attach the straight end of the hose to the 7/16"-20 x 9/16"-18 90˚ swivel elbow adapter on the manifold. Connect the passenger’s side lower cylinder hose to Port #4. Loop the hose through the opening in the A-frame and connect the straight end of the hose to the 7/16"-20 90˚ swivel elbow adapter. Run both angle cylinder hoses (#1 and #2) over the A-frame angle and to their respective manifold por ts. Note:
The lift cylinder hoses should be routed through the triangular openings in the A-frame.
9. Next, secure the manifold to the A-fr ame.Remove both 3/8" flat washers, 3/8" split lock washers and 3/8"-16 x 1" hex head cap scre ws from the manifold and align the mount holes with the A-frame brac kets .Position the DIODE PACK MOUNT BRACKET against the outside of the A­frame bracket on the driv er’s side. Note: Both of the prongs should be facing up.Align the outside hole on the diode bracket with the holes on the A-frame and manifold.Properly replace and tighten all hardware.
Note:A medium strength threadlocker, such as Loctite®242® should be used to secure the manifold mount fasteners.
10. Hook each EXTENSION SPRING to the receiving holes located on the pivot beam and connect the opposite end of the spring to their respective SPADE BOLTS.Install the 5/8"-11 x 5" spade bolts through the EXTENSION SPRING MOUNTING ANGLE on the top rear of the blade.Secure each spade bolt by placing one 5/8" flat washer on the bolt and thread one 5/8"-11 nylon insert lock nut.Tighten each lock nut until a piece of paper can pass between the 3th & 4th coils on the spring.
11. Install the flexible BLADE GUIDES at each end of the moldboard. Insert the 5/16"-18 x 1" hex head cap screw through the holes provided at the top of the outside reinforcement rib.Tighten all screws using the nylon insert lock nuts provided.
Congratulations! You have successfully completed half of the installation. Don’t quit now, you’re nearly out of the garage!
A medium strength threadlocker, such as Loctite® 242®, should be used to properly secure the mount hardware for the pump and manifold. This will help prevent the hardware from working free from vibration and plow use. Apply a liberal amount of threadlocker to both threaded fasten­ers and the threads in the pump (top diagram). The manifold receives two 3/8"-16 x 1" hex cap screws—one on each side of the A-frame. Like­wise, use threadlocker on these fasteners and the tapped holes in the manifold (bottom diagram).

7. Next, remove the front directional light assembly on the driver’s side of the vehicle.Feed the VIOLET, turn light wire and GRAY, run light wire from the main lighting harness through the opening in the directional light housing. At this point, use a test light or ohm meter to determine the proper wires in the vehicle’s electr ical system to splice into. Once you have identified the proper wires, position one end of the turn or run light wire into a SPLICE LOCK CONNECTOR provided. Attach the vehicle wire to the opposite side of the splice lock connector. Complete the splice by pinching both wires together and locking the connector.Repeat the splice procedure for the remaining wire. The passenger’s side directional light assembly requires the same instal­lation;howev er, only one wire, the PINK, turn light, needs to be spliced.
8. Connect the vehicle headlights to the main lighting harness using a HEADLIGHT ADAPTER KIT. Due to differences in the construction of the adapter kits, and the various make and model v ehicles Blizzard snowplows are installed on (see list to the right), a headlight adapter kit is not packaged with your snowplow. Contact your local Blizzard Dealer to obtain the appropriate adapter for your vehicle.
9. Begin the adapter kit installation by removing the existing vehicle head­light connector from the headlight. Attach the HEADLIGHT ADAPTER CONNECTOR to the existing vehicle headlight connector. Next, plug the BLACK, FIVE-PIN CONNECTOR on the headlight adapter into the gray, five-pin connector on the vehicle wire harness.Lastly, plug the HEADLIGHT ADAPTER CONNECTOR into the vehicle headlight re­ceptacle. Note: If more than one plug is present, match the colors of
each connector (ie gray to gr ay, black to black, Chevrolet da ylight run­ning is clear to gray). Repeat the installation for the opposite headlight.
10. Once the headlight adapter connections are completed, proceed to secure the braided harness to the vehicle. Safely route all harness lengths around the engine components and attach them to the vehicle with cable ties.Extend the PLOW HEADLIGHT CONNECTORS, from the main lighting harness, through the grill of the vehicle and position the HARNESS POWER PLUG and WEATHER CAP near the bumper. Cable tie the power plug to the vehicle bumper or tow hook to keep the harness from hanging too low.
11. Return to the driver’s side cab interior to install the remainder of the vehicle wire harness.Find an accessible location f or the PLOW HEAD­LIGHT TOGGLESWITCH & BRACKET under the dashboard. Install the headlight bracket using two self-drilling screws. Inser t the toggle switch through the bracket and secure it with the hardware provided. Use the MALE 2-PIN POWER CONNECTOR to connect the toggle switch to the vehicle wire harness.
First, insert the 24" GREEN/YELLOW GROUND LEAD into the FEMALE 2-PIN POWER CONNECTOR (on the vehicle wire harness). This lead should be grounded to the vehicle.Next, plug both of the SWITCH LEADS into the toggle switch.Note: Both terminals should
be inserted into the spades on the same side of the switch. One terminal should be positioned in the middle spade. See the illustration to the right and on page 32. Plug both 2-pin power connectors together.

12. Connect the RED POWER WIRE (with 10 AMP FUSE) to a switched power source with a minimum of 10 amps.Note:The red power wire MUST be fused and switched on and off with ignition.Secure all loose wires under the dash.
13. Next, install the LIGHT TOWER. Position the tower arms into the receiving pockets located on the undercarriage push beam.Align the mounting holes in the light tower with those on the push beam and insert two 1/2"-13 x 1-1/4" hex head cap screws. Secure the screws with 1/2" washers and top lock nuts.See your local Blizzard Dealer for complete installation instructions for your vehicle undercarriage.
14. Proceed to install the PLOW HEADLIGHTS. Align one HEADLIGHT BALL STUD MOUNT ADAPTER on the light tower tube with the mounting hole and insert the threaded stud through each. Secure the headlight with one 1/2" split lock washer and hex nut. Note: All snow-
plows are shipped with two BLACK DOME PLUGS that install at either end of the light tower. For secure placement, apply a bead of silicone around the perimeter of the plug prior to installation on the light tower .Connect the terminals from the plow lights to the terminals
on the main lighting harness. Repeat the installation for the opposite headlight.
15. Align the four mount holes on the JOYSTICK CONTROL with the holes located on the JOYSTICK BENCH MOUNT PEDESTAL.Note: The radius on the pedestal should face the dashboard. Secure the joystick to the pedestal with f our 8-32 x 3/4" machine scre ws pro vided. Next, slide the VELCRO® STRAP through the slots cut in the pedestal. The metal D-RING should be located on the side opposite of the radius. Wrap the strap around the bench and fasten.Finally, connect the white power connector from the vehicle wire harness to the connector on the control station.The power switch on the joystick should be in the “OFF” position.
This completes the electrical assembly installation for the vehicle wire harness and main lighting harness.You are now ready to perform all of the test functions on the snowplow.
Testing The Snowplow
1. Fill the HYDRAULIC PUMP FLUID RESERVOIR with BLIZZARD SNOWPLOW RAPID ACTION HYDRAULIC OIL (P/N 63070) until it is approximately 3/4" from the top of the tank.Replace the cap on the reservoir.Proceed to remove the weather caps from each of the plow and vehicle wire harnesses and connect the plugs.Tur n the POWER SWITCH on the joystick in the cab to the “ON” position and turn the vehicle ignition switch on.Y ou no w ha v e power to the sno wplo w. Once all of the hydraulic functions have been executed, the system will have been filled with approximately 3 to 3-1/2 quarts of hydraulic oil.
Dome Plug
Apply a thin bead of silicone around the inside perimeter of the polyethylene dome plugs prior to capping the light tower ends. The silicone will help retain the dome plug inside of the headlight mount tube.
Emergency Hitch Pin & Hair Pin Cotter
In the event you should lose hydraulic power while snowplowing, raise the snowplow into a pile of snow and insert the emergency hitch pin.The pin will lock the plow in a temporary raised position until proper service can be performed to restore hydraulic power. Note: For clarity, the draw latch is not shown in this illustration.

2. Raise the DRAW LATCH on the snowplow by pushing and holding the toggle switch on the A-frame upward into the “CONNECT” position. Notice the action of the fluid in the reservoir.By activating the initial hydraulic function, the fluid begins to fill the system.Push and hold the toggle switch in the “DISCONNECT”position, the draw latch will lower. Refill the reservoir until the fluid is 3/4" from the top of the tank.
3. Position the vehicle such that the draw latch is below the push beam and the mounting points on the A-frame are in line with the mounting points on the undercarriage. Pull out the A-FRAME LATCH PIN and rotate the A-FRAME LATCH clockwise until the latch is resting on the DRAW PIN (See diagr am on page 14).Move the snowplow in position by activating the draw latch connect switch and release.
WARNING: Always use caution when operating the draw latch CONNECT/DISCONNECT switch. Keep your hands and feet away from the operation of the draw latch and the main blade.The action of the draw latch moves the snowplow in position for proper attachment to the vehic le.Failure to follo w this warning may result in serious injury or death.
The draw latch will raise until it hits the push beam and the DRAW LATCH FINGERS will pull the plow into the vehicle.The mounting points on the plow and vehicle are now positively aligned. Rotate the A-frame latch counterclockwise until the latch is locked in the raised position. Note: The A-frame latch pin should always lock in place. Do not set the pin past the lock point on the A-frame. Insert the two HITCH PINS through the mounting holes on the A-frame and secure each with one hair pin cotter.The snowplow is now securely mounted to the vehicle.
4. Return to the inter ior of the vehicle.With the plow securely in place, you can now execute the remaining functions of the snowplow.The power supply on the joystick should be in the “ON” position. Next, raise the plow to its maximum height by pulling back (“RAISE”) on the joy­stick.Angle the snowplow to the left b y mo ving the joystick toward the “L” (left angle) on the label. If the plow function is slow or delayed, the hydraulic fluid is filling the cylinder and replacing the air in the system. Continue testing the remaining joystick functions .Monitor the fluid level in the reservoir and fill to 3/4" from the top of the tank if needed. Also, look for any h ydraulic fluid leaks around the manif old, pump , h ydraulic hoses and all cylinders.
5. Lastly, check that the vehicle and plow headlights are in proper work­ing condition including the turn signals. If necessar y, adjust the plow headlight beams with the plow in the raised position.
Congratulations on a successful assembly and installation! Once all of the blade and electrical functions have been tested your Blizzard straight blade is ready for action.

Your Blizzard straight blade snowplow has been designed for years of rugged, dependable service with low maintenance. To ensure proper working condition, follow the maintenance guidelines below and on the next page.
CAUTION: Always follow the maintenance guidelines in a timely fashion. Failure to observe maintenance guidelines may result in poor snowplow operation, increased component wear or possibly lead to part failure.
Routinely inspect the following items – perfor m maintenance as needed:
1. All fasteners, pins, nuts and bolts for tightness. See the recommended maximum bolt torque chart on page 33.
2. All hydraulic hoses and hydraulic hose adapters for wear and leaks. See the recommended hydraulic adapter torque values on page 33.
3. All cylinders for leaks;inspect rod ends for corrosion and pitting.
4. Cutting edges and plow shoes for wear.Do not discard plow shoe washers.These should be retained for different shoe adjustments.
5. Clean and lubricate all electrical plugs, headlight connections, ground and battery cables, solenoid connections and switch connections to prevent corrosion.Apply dielectric grease for every 25 hours of snow­plow use.You may need to grease more frequently depending on your plowing environment.
6. Lubricate all pins and bushings to prevent corrosion and to maintain consistent operation. A NLGI Grade 2 multipurpose lithium complex grease with molybdenum (MPGM) is recommended for lubrication.
7. Clean and cover deep scr atches or e xposed metal with Blizzard Snow­plow white (P/N 61219) or black (P/N 63073) touch-up paint.Contact your local Blizzard Dealer for availability.
8. Check the hydraulic oil level in the hydraulic pump fluid reservoir. Fill the fluid to within 3/4" from the top of the reservoir.Do not exceed this level.Never mix different types of fluids. Contact your local dealer for replacement Blizzard Snowplow Rapid Action Hydraulic Oil (P/N 63070).
9. Check the trip spring adjustment. Properly adjusted tension will allow a sheet of paper to pass between the 3rd and 4th coils of the spring.
10.To adjust the snowplow drop speed, use the variable flow control valve (FC) on the manifold (see label under pump & manifold cover).Turn the dial on the valve clockwise to decrease the drop speed. Tur n the dial counterclockwise to increase the drop speed.See the Troubleshooting Guide on page 35 for additional instructions.

1. Make sure the tubing and threads are clean.
2. Lubricate the threads with 10W hydraulic oil.
3. Hand tighten the nut/sleeve to appox.30 in-lbs.
4. Make alignment marks on the nut and fitting.
5. Proceed to tighten to turns or ft-lb values.
6. When fully tightened make a 2nd set of align­ment marks at the fully tightened position.
Note:Torque values specified are for threads lubricated with 10W hydraulic oil.
Sizes -02 through -08 are less tolerant to over­torque abuse.This will reduce the clamping force resulting in loss of seal and reduction in flow.

Troubleshooting Guide
Prior to diagnosing your straight blade, v erify that all connectors (plow and v ehicle wire harness plugs, headlight adapters, control box, fused hot lead, draw latch switch, solenoid ground wire connection, coil wire lead harness, plow headlight harnesses) are free of corrosion and are well lubricated with dielectric grease. Insuring that all connectors are in good working order will save time in determining your snowplow’s ser vice needs.
