Chain Adjustment (electric lift) (Models 23200/23250 only)
The chain is adjustable at the lift arm. The chain must be adjusted with the controller in the down (Float)
position and the actuator must be all the way down as far as it will go. The chain should be adjusted to have
2-3 links of slack (see step 29, page 22). Also if a major electric actuator malfunction is experienced the
plow can be raised by a oor jack or two people and the chain can be adjusted up with no slack. This will
then suspend the plow above ground so the vehicle can be driven to your nearest HomePlow Service center.
Plowing
Always plow with the storm, every 2-3" of accumulation. The plow to automatically angle to the side with
the heaviest amount of snow and when raised the plow will automatically return to the center or straight
position (g. 45). The plow also is equipped with a xed angle pin (g. 46) which can position the plow to
the left or right. To use the xed angle pin manually push the plow to the left or right and drop in the xed
angle pin and secure with the hair pin. Lift as high as possible, then drive through the snow to the garage.
Drop the blade and back drag away from the garage. Turn around, back into the cleared path to the
garage, set the blade in an angled position if necessary and continue rolling snow away from the house.
Complete as many passes as necessary to clear the snow. The rst storm of the season, plow back from
the drive area to allow space to pile future snowfall.
