General Operating Instructions
WARNING
Perform the Safety System Interlock test found in your tractor Operator’s Manual. If tractor does not pass the test, do not operate the tractor. See your authorized dealer. Under no circumstances should you attempt to defeat the safety system.
Use caution when plowing a snow covered area. Snow can cover objects such as curbs, drop-offs, and other obstacles. Be familiar with the area you are plowing.
To prevent an explosion or fire, never store the tractor with fuel in the tank inside a building where an ignition source is present.
DANGER
OPERATING ON SLOPES CAN BE DANGEROUS
Never operate on slopes greater than 17.6% (10°) which is a rise of 3-1/2 feet (106cm) vertically in 10 feet (607cm) horizontally.
Operate the unit at a slow ground speed when driving onto slope. Avoid using brakes to control ground speed.
When operating on slopes that are greater than 15 % (8.5°) but less than 17.6%, use additional wheel weights or counterweights.
In addition to counterweights, use extra caution when operating on slopes. Drive UP and DOWN the slope, never across the face, use caution when changing directions and DO NOT START OR STOP ON SLOPE.
For additional traction, tire chains and a weight box can be added. Maximum weight added to tractor should not exceed 35 lbs. per wheel and 100 additional lbs. in weight box.
IMPORTANT NOTE
To prevent damage to the unit, always raise the dozer blade BEFORE turning or backing up.

General Operating Instructions
Daily Storage
1. Allow tractor engine to cool before storing in any enclosure.
2. After dozing or plowing jobs are completed, hose or brush down the blade to remove excess dirt.
3. Lightly oil all pivot points. Coat bare metal surfaces to prevent corrosion.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Refer to Tractor Operator’s Manual for important information concerning safely storing your tractor.
Changing Angle of the Blade:
See Figure 1 for location of Controls.
NOTE: It is easier to change the angle of the blade with the attachment raised.
1. Raise the attachment lift.
2. Use an abrupt pushing/pulling motion to release the angling mechanism and move the blade left or right. Push the angling lever forward fully to lock the blade in the left position. Pull the lever fully back to lock the blade in the right position. Move the lever slowly over center to lock in the centered position.
Dozing Tips
• Determine the best dozing pattern before beginning.
• When land contour permits, it is best to travel in the longest direction to minimize turning.
• In very deep snow or gravel, it may be necessary to make the first pass with dozer blade partially raised, then repeat each pass with the blade lowered to clear the material left on the surface. Also, it may be nec­essary to clear less than the full width of the dozer blade or reduce ground speed.
• When dozing, push the dirt to the desired location, then drag the blade backwards for final leveling. Pack down the dirt or gravel by driving the tractor over the leveled area.
• Use any slight grade to your advantage, doze down­hill, and set the blade angle so that the plowed mater­ial is moving downhill as it leaves the blade.
Snow Plowing Tips
• Determine the best snow removal pattern before beginning.
• Plan the pattern so that you avoid pushing snow onto cleared areas.
• When land contour permits, it is best to travel in long straight lines to minimize turning.
• In very deep or heavy snow, it may be necessary to make the first pass with dozer blade partially raised, then repeat each pass with the blade lowered to clear the material left on the surface. Also, it may be nec­essary to clear less than the full width of the dozer blade or reduce ground speed.
• Snow tends to freeze into solid banks when plowed off a driveway or other large area. Because of this you may want to plow snow several feet past the edge of the drive to allow space for future plowing to build up.
• If pushing snow past the edges of driveways or side­walks, be careful not to tear up the grass buried under snow next to the drive or sidewalk. Lift the blade several inches off the ground to avoid damag­ing the grass.
• Spinning tires with tire chains can leave unsightly marks or permanent damage to asphalt or concrete driveways or sidewalks. Avoid sudden stops or starts.
Storage
Off-Season Storage
1. Remove dozer blade and hitch from the tractor.
2. Use water pressure or a brush to thoroughly clean the dozer blade.
3. Paint, or lightly coat with oil, any area where paint has been worn or chipped away.
4. Lubricate the dozer blade.
5. Store the dozer blade and hitch in a dry place.
6
Maintenance
Schedule For Normal Care
Care Required Schedule
Clean debris from After each use. dozer blade.
Lubricate dozer blade. Every 10 hours or at
least once a year.
Lubricate Dozer Blade
Lubricate the dozer blade as shown in Figure 2. Where an oil can is shown, wipe the area clean, apply a few drops of oil (SAE 30), then wipe up drips or spills.
In general, linkage connections and other parts that have partial rotational or sliding movement should be lubricat­ed periodically with SAE 30 weight oil. Avoid applying excessive amounts of oil since this may cause a build-up of dirt around the lubricated area, making subsequent lubrication more difficult to accomplish.
WARNING
To avoid serious injury, perform maintenance on the tractor or dozer blade only when the engine is stopped, parking brake is set and all moving parts have stopped. Always remove the ignition key before beginning maintenance or adjustments to prevent accidental starting of the engine.
Figure 2. Lubrication Points

Adjustments
Skid Shoe Adjustment
Slotted holes are provided to permit adjustment of the shoe assemblies for raising and lowering the blade to various working heights (see Figure 3).
When cleaning snow from gravel or earth drives or walks, the shoe assemblies should be lowered fully to prevent blade contact with gravel or ground. When cleaning smooth hard surfaces like concrete, the shoe assemblies are normally placed fully up to allow the blade to scrape the surface.
To adjust the skid, raise the blade off the ground and block with a piece of wood. Loosen the bolts (B, Figure
3) and move the skid shoes (A) up or down to desired height. Tighten the bolts securely.
Figure 3. A. Skid Shoes B. Bolts
Spring Tension
See Figure 4. This snow plow/dozer blade is spring loaded so that when the blade strikes a solid object, the springs will allow the blade to release as shown, rather than cause damage. The blade will go back to its original position after object is cleared.
Figure 4. Dozer Blade “Released”
Figure 5. Tension Springs A. Eyebolt D. Pivot Frame B. Nut, 5/16 E. Nut, 5/16 C. Spring
See Figure 5. To adjust spring tension hold rear nut (B) and loosen front nut (E). Tighten rear nut (B) to increase spring tension, or loosen to decrease tension.
For initial adjustment, tighten nut (B) on each eyebolt enough to expose about 3/4" (19mm) of thread. Tighten front nut (E) against rear nut (B) to lock adjustment in place.

Lift Rod Adjustment
In the fully raised position the blade should be 4”-5” off the ground. In the fully lowered position, the lift rod should compress the spring creating downward pressure on the blade.
LIFT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
1. Fully raise the attachment lift. The attachment should be approximately 4”-5” off the ground. If not, go to step 2.
2. Lower the attachment and adjust the front set collar (A, Figure 6) to achieve the correct lift height.
DOWNWARD PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
1. Place the lift in the fully raised position.
2. Slide the spring (C, Figure 6) forward so it is against the front set collar (A). Slide the rear set collar (D) up against the back of the spring. Use the rear set collar to compress the spring slightly, then tighten the set screw.
IMPORTANT NOTE
DO NOT OVER-COMPRESS THE SPRING. In addition to providing downward pressure, the spring is an elastic medium that absorbs shocks caused by bumps and cracks in ground surfaces. Over-compressing the spring defeats this and may cause damage to the unit.
