POSTSEASON SUMMER MAINTENANCE
HYDRAULIC
1. Draining & Replacing The HomePlow Meyer M-1 Hydraulic Fluid
Drain the  uid by un-bolting the hydraulic unit from the Lift Frame and
removing the Reservoir Breather. Turn the hydraulic unit upside down and drain
the  uid from the reservoir. To drain the  uid from the power angling cylinders
(if equipped), disconnect the  ttings and completely retract the cylinder rods
and purge cylinder and hose of all hydraulic  uid. The complete system should
then be  ushed out with Meyer M-2 Flushing Fluid before adding new Meyer
Hydraulic Fluid. To  ush the unit, re-install the hydraulic unit to the Lift Frame
and hose to the angle cylinder (if equipped). Add 1 quart of M-2 Flushing Fluid
to the reservoir and replace the Reservoir Breather. Cycle the unit Up, Down,
Left and Right 5 times in each direction. Then drain the hydraulic unit as before
and re- ll with Meyer M-1 Fluid. Check  uid level after cycling plow and top o
if necessary.
2. Meyer M-1 Hydraulic Fluid is specially formulated with an anti-ice additive
for almost constant viscosity in subzero temperatures. Because it is free- owing in
extreme cold, the unit’s performance and e ciency are not a ected by winter weather.
It is e ective for a maximum of one year. Always carry an extra quart of Meyer M-1
Hydraulic Fluid. Use of any inferior  uids will void The HomePlow warranty.
SNOW PLOW STORAGE
1. When snow plow is disconnected, disconnect lift chain from lift arm
and extend lift cylinder to end of stroke and coat chrome rod with light
grease. This  lls the cylinder with hydraulic  uid and protects the interior and
exterior from rust and corrosion.
2. Whenever Moldboard is disconnected, coat the exposed portions of the power
angling cylinder chrome rod (if equipped) with light grease to protect it from corrosion.
3. Coat pivot pin and other wear points with chassis lubricant. Be sure to grease
all grease holes.
4. Unplug electical connection. Coat connection with a dielectric compound
to prevent corrosion and plug into their corresponding weather plug.
Yellow and black paint is formulated
to withstand harsh temperatures and
the winter environment.
Protects your electrical system
with Meyer winter formula
dielectric grease.
Meyer M1 Hydraulic oil and Flush is
scienti cally formulated to withstand
extreme winter temps up to -40F.
