Installation Instructions
1. To secure the blade to the tube system,
place the pitch bushing (Item 7.4.1) into
the blade gusset hole. Secure the tube
system and the blade together with the
Items 7.3.4 carriage bolt, 7.3.3 washer
and 7.3.2 lock nut, as shown in Figure 1.
Repeat on other side.
2. Insert the plow springs (Item 7.2) into the
top smaller rear holes in the UTV cradle,
as shown in Figure 2. Place the eyebolts
(Item 7.3.8) onto the end of the plow
springs and secure the eyebolts onto the
plow blade gusset, as shown in Figure 2
using Items 7.3.9 and 7.3.10. Leave spring
tension loose as you will decide tension
in Step 5.
3. Assemble on machine and decide desired
pitch of blade. (Blade pitch controls the
angle of which the blade contacts the
ground.) Each hole is 5 degrees of blade
pitch adjustment.
Note: Figure 3 shows the default pitch
position. Recommended for proper blade
level
.
4. With springs installed pitch blade under
tension and install Items 7.3.5 socket head
cap screw and 7.3.1 lock nut into desired
pitch position hole
5. Tighten nuts down on eye bolt until
desired spring tension is reached.
Note: For each 1/4” that the nut is
tightened it will add 8 lbs of spring
tension.
