▲ Maximum transport speed for an
attached implement is 20 mph. DO
NOT EXCEED. Never travel at a
speed which does not allow
adequate control of steering and
stopping. Some rough terrains
require a slower speed.
▲ As a guideline, use the following
maximum speed weight ratios for
an attached implement:
20 mph when weight of attached
implement is less than or equal to
the weight of machine towing the
implement.
10 mph when weight of attached
implement exceeds weight of
machine towing implement but
not more than double the weight.
▲ IMPORTANT: Do not tow a load
that is more than double the weight
of the vehicle towing the load.

▲ DO NOT DELAY. If an accident
occurs, see a doctor familiar with
this type of injury immediately.
Any fluid injected into the skin or
eyes must be treated
within a few hours or
gangrene may
result.
Tire Safety
▲ Tire changing can be dangerous
and should be preformed by
trained personnel using the
correct tools and equipment.
▲ When inflating tires, use a clip-on
chuck and extension hose long
enough to allow you to stand to
one side and NOT in front of or
over the tire assembly. Use a
safety cage if available.
▲ When removing and installing
wheels, use wheel handling
equipment adequate for the
weight involved.

Hydraulic Hose Hook-up
Hydraulic fluid under high pressure can penetrate skin. Wear
protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when working
with hydraulic systems. Use a piece of cardboard or wood
rather than hands when searching for hydraulic leaks. If
hydraulic fluid is injected into the skin or eyes, it must be
treated by a doctor familiar with this type of injury within a few
hours or gangrene may result. DO NOT DELAY.
Refer to Figure 2-4 on page 13:
Two high pressure hydraulic outlets are required for the
hydraulic motor and one outlet for the case drain.
1.Route hydraulic hoses along the most convenient path
to access your skid steer or tractor mounted hydraulic
reservoir couplings.
o
2. Clean quick connect couplers of dirt and then
connect couplers (#1 & #2) to the skid steer couplers
or couplers at the tractor mounted hydraulic
reservoir. Make sure quick connect couplers have
fully engaged. If they have not, check the following:
a. Make sure couplers are same size and type.
b. Make sure hydraulic pressure has been released.
3. If case drain line is fitted with the optional coupler,
then connect that coupler (#3) to the tank/sump
coupler and skip to step 5 below.
4. If screwing case drain line directly to the tank/sump:
a. Remove plastic cap and wrap teflon tape around
pipe threads on end of case drain line (#3).
b. Screw case drain line (#3) to your equipment’s
tank/sump port until tight. All required adapter
fittings are supplied by customer.
5. Turn auxiliary hydraulics on to check impeller
rotation. The impeller should rotate counterclockwise
viewed from the operator’s seat and clockwise
viewed facing impeller and auger from the front. If
impeller rotates incorrectly, switch male and female
couplers on the hydraulic hoses and reconnect
hoses.
6. Cable ties to be added at end of solenoid hook-up.

Section 5: Operating Instructions
General Safety Information
The operator should be a person who is responsible,
physically capable, and properly trained to operate this Snow
Blower. They should read and understand all instructions in
this Operator’s Manual. Anyone not properly trained and all
children under the age of 16 should not operate this machine.
A crushing hazard always exists around equipment attached to
a skid steer or tractor with loader arms. Loader arms and
hydraulic cylinders can pinch and/or crush causing serious
injury or death.
• The operator must know how to control the skid steer or
tractor and how to stop it and attached equipment quickly
in an emergency.
• Do not drive up to anyone standing in front of a fixed object
such as a wall or bench. Never assume that the brakes will
stop the machine in time.
• Never allow anyone to go near the attached equipment or
under the unit when arms are raised.
• When equipped, sound horn before traveling in reverse.
Drive at a slower speed to compensate for blind spots.
All guards and shields must be installed and in good working
condition at all times during Snow Blower operation.
Always place skid steer/tractor in park or set park brake,
disengage hydraulics, disengage PTO if tractor mounted,
lower loader arms fully down, shut engine off, remove switch
key, and wait for impeller and auger to come to a complete
stop before dismounting from the skid steer or tractor.
Always operate attached implement while seated in the skid
steer/tractor cab with Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS)
and seat belt fastened around the operator. Operator can
become pinched, crushed, or entangled if not seat belted in or
if operating equipment from outside the cab.
Keep people and animals away from machinery while in
operation. They can become entangled in the Snow Blower
auger or be ran over by the skid steer/tractor and/or Snow
Blower causing serious injury or death.
Always operate Snow Blower with skid steer/tractor flashing
lights turned on. Be extremely careful blowing snow at night
with rear bright lights on. Approaching traffic from either
direction can mistake which traffic lane you are traveling in
and your direction of travel.
Always secure underside of Snow Blower with solid supports
before working under the unit. Never work under equipment
supported by hydraulics. Hydraulics can drop equipment if
controls are actuated or if hydraulic lines burst. Either
situation can drop the Snow Blower instantly even when
power to hydraulics is shut off.
Do not operate and/or travel across steep inclines where a
skid steer or tractor can slip or roll-over causing serious
injury or death. Consult your skid steer or tractor Operator’s
Manual for acceptable inclines the machine is capable of
traveling across.
Hydraulic fluid under high pressure can penetrate skin. Wear
protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when working
with hydraulic systems. Use a piece of cardboard or wood
rather than hands when searching for hydraulic leaks. If
hydraulic fluid is injected into the skin or eyes, it must be
treated by a doctor familiar with this type of injury within a
few hours or gangrene may result. DO NOT DELAY.
Always shut down hydraulics and wait for all rotating
components to come to a complete stop before cleaning out a
plugged discharge chute. The impeller blades ar e located just
below the chute and will nip off body extremities and cause
serious injuries or death even when using a stick or other
object to unplug the chute.
Always shut down hydraulics and wait for all rotating
components to come to a complete stop before attempting to
unclog built-up snow from the auger or impeller, make
adjustments, perform maintenance, or clean the Snow Blower.
Rotating impeller, auger, and chain drive can cause serious
bodily injury or death.
Make certain the Snow Blower is resting on the gr ound and all
hydraulic pressure is relieved before disconnecting hydraulic
fittings from the Snow Blower.

Safety Steps
Figure 5-1
Mounting & Dismounting Skid Steer
Refer to Figure 5-1:
Use stepping pads, grab-handles, and anti-slip surfaces when
getting on or off the skid steer. Using unapproved surfaces and
handles to mount and dismount can result in a falling hazard
and cause serious injury or death.
Transporting
Do not exceed Snow Blower specifications for maximum
hydraulic pressure rating and gallons per minute rating.
Personal injury and/or machine damage can occur.
Follow all safety precautions when transporting. Not using
safe transporting methods can damage the equipment and
cause death or serious injury.
• Always transport with attached equipment low to the
ground to maintain stability of the skid steer or tractor.
• Always travel straight up and straight down inclines. Make
turns only on level ground.
• Keep equipment away from electrical power lines. Place an
orange warning sign under overhead electrical power lines
indicating type of danger above.
• Transporting loads across inclines, over ramps, grades,
bumpy, soft, or slippery surfaces r educes machine stability.
Transporting in these conditions is extr emely dangerous.
• When traveling on public roads at night or during the day,
use accessory lights and devices for adequate warning to
operators of other vehicles. Comply with all federal, state,
and local laws.
• When traveling on roadways, transport in such a way that
faster moving vehicles may pass you safely.
• Limit maximum transport speed to 20 mph. Reduce ground

NOTE: Most tractor loaders have a leveling rod that
can be used in lieu of the level run indicator. Refer
to your tractor loader manual to properly adjust the
leveling rod. Leveling rod must be adjusted to
operate the Snow Blower parallel to the ground.
IMPORTANT: The level run indicator must be
adjusted correctly before using it. Refer to “Level
Run Indicator Adjustment” on page 22.
IMPORTANT: The indicator arrow (#1) should point
to “LEVEL RUN” when parked on flat level ground
and Snow Blower is sitting on the ground. It is normal
for the indicator arrow to move from “LEVEL RUN”
during operation. DO NOT readjust hitch angle.
Doing so can cause the auger to contact the ground
and damage it.
IMPORTANT: Set loader arms to float before
blowing snow. The skid shoes can have increased
wear if loader arms are rigid.

Reading Level Run Indicator
Figure 5-2
Leveling The Snow Blower
Refer to Figure 5-2:
The level run indicator (#2) helps the operator to verify
the Snow Blower is operating parallel to the ground.
General Operator Instructions
It is important that you familiarize yourself with the
Operator’s Manual, properly attach the Snow Blower to
your skid steer or tractor front loader, completed the
operating checklist and pre-operating safety check
before running the operational safety check.
You will want to park on a flat level surface and level your
Snow Blower to operate parallel to the ground before
making any operational safety checks or removing snow.
If you have not leveled the Snow Blower, please
complete this procedure before continuing.
If you detect a malfunction in either your Snow Blower or
skid steer/tractor during the operational safety check,
immediately shut skid steer or tractor off, remove switch
key, and make all necessary repairs and adjustments
before continuing.
Before starting the skid steer or tractor, make sure your
machine is in park or in neutral and the park brake is set.
Turn hydraulic function off. If Snow Blower is tractor
mounted and powered by a rear mounted Hydraulic
Reservoir System (HRS), disengage tractor PTO to the
HRS.
1.Stop skid steer/tractor on a flat level surface and
lower loader arms until Snow Blower is close to
ground.
2. Extend or retract hydraulic cylinders on the end of the
skid steer/tractor loader arms until the indicator
arrow (#1) points to “LEVEL RUN”.
3. Lower Snow Blower until it is resting on its skid shoes
and make any final adjustments necessary to make
sure the indicator arrow (#1) still points to “LEVEL
RUN”.
4. Once set, DO NOT change position of the hydraulic
cylinders on the end of the skid steer/tractor loader
arms. See important note above.
5. Repeat steps 1 thru 4 if skid shoes are readjusted or
if hydraulic cylinders on end of skid steer/tractor
loader arms have been moved.
3/18/15
With your Snow Blower resting on the ground and loader
arms set to float, start your skid steer or tractor and set
engine throttle speed at a low idle. Engage PTO if tractor
mounted with a rear mounted HRS. Turn hydraulics to the
Snow Blower on. If everything is running smoothly at a
low idle, slowly increase skid steer/tractor engine RPM
until the Snow Blower reaches full operating speed. If
everything is still running smoothly, return engine to low
idle, turn hydraulic function to off, and when applicable,
disengage PTO.
You should now be ready to transport to your snow
blowing site at a safe ground speed. On roadways
transport in such a manner that faster moving vehicles
can easily see you and pass you safely. Reduce your
speed when travelling over rough and hilly terrain. Avoid
quick or sharp steering corrections. Take extra care to
ensure that the Snow Blower doesn’t come into contact
with obstacles such as trees, buildings, or fences. Use
accessory lights and appropriate reflective devices to
provide adequate warning to pedestrians and other
vehicle operators when traveling on public roads and in
the dark of night. Comply with all local, state, and federal
laws.
It is important that you know the area where snow is to be
removed and what lies beneath the snow. If possible,
survey the area ahead of the snow. Remove all possible
obstructions and mark any obstructions that cannot be
removed with flags that project above the snow. If you are
unfamiliar with the area, ask someone who can identify
hidden obstructions so that you can mark them with a
flag. Flag manholes, water meters, gas meters, culvert

edges, fire hydrants, stumps, and other obstructions that
are not easily seen. It really pays to inspect a new area
and to develop a safe plan before moving snow.
Determine how close to the ground the Snow Blower can
be operated. Set skid shoes to hold the Snow Blower off
the ground at a predetermined height. Surfaces with
gravel or crushed rock will require a higher setting than
hard flat surfaces such as asphalt and concrete. Never
set Snow Blower so low as to pick-up gravel and/or rock.
Determine wind direction and devise a removal plan that
will allow wind to carry blown snow away from the
operator. Snow discharged out the Snow Blower and
blown back at you will obstruct your view and can totally
block your vision of work.
Determine direction to blow snow that will not create a
driving hazard for other vehicles and rotate chute to blow
snow in that direction. To minimize work, do not blow
snow over an area that has already been cleared of snow
and never rotate chute to blow snow toward the skid
steer/tractor and/or operator as hard objects can be
thrown from the discharge chute.
Set spout deflector angle. The angle will vary depending
on how far snow is to be blown, how light and fluffy the
snow is, and how wet and heavy it is.
Some adjustments to the chute rotation, spout deflector
angle, and skid shoe height may be necessary after
traveling a few feet. If you need to get off the skid steer or
tractor to make adjustments, you must stop your
machine, turn hydraulic functions off, disengage PTO
when applicable, place skid steer/tractor in park or in
neutral with park brake set, shut engine off, remove
switch key, and wait for all components to come to a
complete stop before dismounting your skid steer/tractor.
It is now time to position your Snow Blower at your
starting point. Once there, stop travelling and lower Snow
Blower down onto its skid shoes.
Set throttle at an idle speed, engage PTO if tractor
mounted, and turn hydraulic function on. Listen for
unusual clicking or knocking sounds as the auger and
impeller start rotating. If everything sounds fine increase
engine speed to a recommended operating speed. If an
unusual sound is heard, shut your machine down
immediately, investigate the cause, and make necessary
repairs before continuing.
Start traveling forward while blowing snow. Always blow
snow while traveling at a speed that will allow you to be in
control at all times. Change speed if travel speed is too
fast. Only change to a higher speed if you are certain it
will be safe. The heavier and deeper the snow the slower
you will need to travel. If your unit is tractor mounted and
powered with a rear mount HRS, maintain recommended
PTO speed and use a lower gear selection to maintain
proper travel speed. If your unit is skid steer mounted,
you should set your high/low gear selection in the low
range and vary your engine speed to maintain proper
travel speed.
Do not use rear view mirrors to view direction of travel
while backing up. Instead, turn your head to look where
you are traveling. It is very important that you get a full
field of view to prevent an accident.
Beware of obstacles along side your machine while
making turns traveling forward and backing-up. Never
swing the Snow Blower into fire hydrants, mailboxes,
buildings, vehicles, fences, trees, or other standing
obstacles. Shift to a lower gear when possible and travel
very slow when in a tight situation to allow time to react.
Stop your skid steer or tractor before hitting an obstacle.
Once you have reached end of travel, stop your skid steer
or tractor, raise the Snow Blower up, and return to the
front of your work to make another run at blowing snow. It
is not necessary to disengage hydraulics while returning
to the front of your work.
Once at the front, line up your Snow Blower with your
next starting point, lower unit down onto its skid shoes
until all pressure is off the loader arms, and begin
traveling forward blowing snow.
With a little practice you will be pleased with what you and
your Land Pride Snow Blower can do. Whether you are
done blowing snow, need to take a break, or just need to
make a few adjustments to the Snow Blower, remember
to always do the following:
• Reduce engine rpm
• Shut hydraulic functions off
• Disengage PTO if tractor mounted
• Stop on level ground and set park brake
• Turn off the engine and remove the key
• Stay on the tractor until the Snow Blower auger and
rotor have come to a complete stop.

Always secure Snow Blower in the up position with solid
supports before servicing underside of Snow Blower. Never
work under equipment supported by hydraulics. Hydraulics
can drop equipment if controls are actuated or if hydraulic
lines burst. Either situation can drop the Snow Blower
instantly even when power to hydraulics is shut off.
1.Clean off any dirt and grease that may have
accumulated on the Snow Blower and moving parts,
and then wash surface thoroughly with a garden hose.
2. Check impeller, auger, wear bars, and skid shoes for
wear and breaks. Repair or replace if necessary. See
“Auger & Impeller Inspection”
3. Inspect for loose, damaged, or worn parts. Make
adjustments, repairs, and/or replace as needed.
4. Repaint parts where paint is worn or scratched to
prevent rust. Ask your Land Pride dealer for aerosol
touch-up paint. Paint is also available in touch-up
bottles with brush, quarts, and gallon sizes by adding
TU, QT, or GL to the end of the aerosol part number.

Inspect cutting edge of grader blade and plow bolts for
wear and rotate 180
grader blade is replaced before auger housing becomes
exposed to wear.
2. Attach new or rotated grader blade (#3) to bottom of
Snow Blower frame with existing/new plow bolts (#1)
and hex flange lock nuts (#2).
3. Tighten lock nuts to the correct torque.

or replace as needed. Make sure
Long Term Storage
Clean, inspect, service, and make necessary repairs to
the Snow Blower when parking it for long periods and
when parking it at the end of a working season. This will
help ensure the Snow Blower is ready for field use the
next time you hook-up to it.
Always disconnect driveline from tractor PTO before
servicing drive train components or underside of unit. Snow
Blower can be engaged if tractor is started causing bodily
injury or death.

5. Replace all damaged or missing decals.
6. Lubricate as noted under “Lubrication” on page 32.
7.Apply a coating of oil to the areas without paint due to
high wear to minimize oxidation.
8. Store Snow Blower on a level surface in a clean, dry
place. Inside storage will reduce maintenance and
make for a longer Snow Blower life.
9. Follow all “Unhooking The Snow Blower”
instructions on page 14 when disconnecting Snow
Blower from skid steer/tractor.
Ordering Replacement Parts
Land Pride offers equipment in factory standard beige
with black highlights. Equipment may also be purchased
in orange. Special attention must be given to the part
number to prevent ordering the wrong color. A suffix
number corresponding to one of the colors below must be
added at the end of the part number. Parts ordered
without the suffix number will be supplied in factory
standard colors.
For example, if you are ordering a replacement part with
part number 555-555C and the existing part is orange,
then add the suffix 82 to the end of the number to make
the part number read 555-555 C82.
