CONTROL FUNCTIONS
A
The information below briefly describes the
function of individual controls. Operating the
tractor and dozer require the combined use of
these controls and additional controls whose
operation is described in the tractor Operator’s
Manual.
Please Take a moment and
familiarize yourself with the
name, location, and function
of these controls so that you
will better understand the safe-
ty and operating instructions
provided in this manual.
Figure 1. Control Locations
A. Blade Angle Control Lever
B. Attachment Lift
A. Blade Angle Control Lever
The blade angle release lever controls a spring-loaded
plate which locks the blade in one of three positions.
Turn the lever counterclockwise 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 past center to lock
in the centered position.
NOTE: It is easier to change the angle of the blade with
the attachment raised.

General Operating
Instructions
Checks Before Starting
WARNING
1. Refer to the Maintenance & Adjustments sections of
this manual and perform any needed service. Also,
refer to the tractor Operator’s Manual and perform
any required service.
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.
2. Remove any objects from the work area which might
interfere with plowing activity.
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.
3. Adjust the skid shoes to desired height. See Skid
Shoe Adjustment.
4. Make sure all hardware is present and secure.
To prevent an explosion or fire, never store the
tractor with fuel in the tank inside a building
where an ignition source is present.
Engine & Ground Speed Selection
Always run the engine at full throttle.
Set tractor speed to obtain the needed power to move
the material. Operate at a safe speed, depending on
conditions, so that you have complete control of the trac-
tor. Rear wheel weights and chains are recommended
for slippery surfaces.
IMPORTANT NOTE
To prevent damage to the unit, always
raise the dozer blade BEFORE turning or
backing up.
A rear weight carrier is recommended for additional trac-
tion.
DANGER
OPERATING ON SLOPES CAN BE DANGEROUS
Transporting
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.
For maximum ground clearance, transport the blade to
and from work areas fully raised and angled straight
ahead.
Operate the unit at a slow ground speed when
driving onto slope. Avoid using brakes to control
ground speed.
Starting & Stopping
When operating on slopes that are greater than
15 % (8.5°) but less than 17.6%, use additional
wheel weights or counterweights.
1. Start the tractor engine. Set engine throttle to full.
2. Raise the attachment lift and travel to the work site.
3. Set the angling control to the desired angle.
4. Lower the attachment lift and begin plowing.
5. Raise the plow before backing up.
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.
6. To stop the tractor, set ground speed to neutral and
set the parking brake. Before leaving the seat, stop
the engine, set the parking brake, remove the key,
and wait for all moving parts to stop.
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.

General Operating Instructions
walks, 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 damag-
ing the grass.
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.
• Spinning tires with tire chains can leave unsightly
marks or permanent damage to asphalt or concrete
driveways or sidewalks. Avoid sudden stops or
starts.
1. Raise the attachment lift.
2. Turn the lever counterclockwise 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.
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 the
longest direction 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 nec-
essary 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 side-
