IMPORTANT NOTICE

In conjunction with FMVSS (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards) and OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) guidelines,
Meyer Products has designed this plow package with the following guidelines:

Installation of a snowplow may effect your new vehicle warranty.
For more information consult your Vehicle Owner's Manual / Vehicle Dealer.

The vehicle must not be operated when overloaded. In all cases, the loaded vehicle weight, including the entire
snowplow system, all aftermarket accessories, driver, passenger, options, nominal fluid levels, and cargo must not
exceed the front/rear Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR), and total Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). These
weights ratings are specified on the safety compliance certification label on the driver's side door opening. The use
of rear ballast weight may be required to prevent exceeding the front GAWR.

According to the NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) new and untitled vehicles need to be verified by the installer that
snowplow and ballast (if needed) do no exceed the front/rear GAWR and total GVWR.

Read the Meyer Owner's Manual before operating or servicing a snowplow. FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS

EXPLICITLY.
