WingMan Component Identification 6
WingMan Component Identification 1. Moldboard – Steel or Polyethylene moldboard sheet is impact and corrosion resistant. 7. Power Angling Cylinders – Heavy-duty winter specified hydraulics to move the plow left or right. 2. Cutting Edge – Replaceable high carbon steel provides extra long operating life; should be 1/2" above ground in plowing position. (Can be higher when used on gravel driveways.) Available in Urethane or Rubber. 8.
Pistol Grip Controller 23047 The snow plow should only be in operation when the vehicle ignition switch and the control switch are in the “ON” position. Care should be taken to insure that the control switch is kept dry and free from moisture during normal operation. When operating the snow plow lights the vehicle headlight switch must be turned to the park position so the vehicle headlights and snow plow lights are not on at the same time.
Hands-Free Plowing or ALM/ARM Meyer re-branded the ALM/ARM feature on its 23047 controllers to be Hands-Free Plowing (HFP) ™. When activated, the Hands-Free Plowing (HFP) mode uses the vehicle’s shift lever to control the up/down movement of the moldboard. Pressing the HFP button on the controller will toggle you through: On/Off, Back-drag Mode (default mode when active), and Forward Plowing Mode.
Controller Troubleshooting The Controller offers diagnostics imprinted on the backside of the controller for easy identification of which solenoid or coil may be creating the error.

General Maintenance Tightening the Trip Spring and Adjusting the Eye Bolt To properly adjust the Trip Springs, tighten the top locknut 4 (four) complete rotations beyond the point that the coils begin to separate. Tighten the bottom locknut to hold eyebolt in position. It is important that each eye bolt is locked in this position to work properly when the moldboard experiences tripping action. Greasing the Pivot pins and King bolt Use a grease gun to grease pivot pins and king bolt.
General Maintenance prevent corrosion from occurring. Also check the electrical connections to assure they’re tight and corrosion free. Make sure that all wires are being held clear from moving or hot engine parts or from sharp sheet metal. For maximum efficiency, the battery, alternator, and regulator must be in top operating condition to assure maximum electrical output. Adjusting the Drop Speed The rate at which the plow is lowered is adjustable.

Meyer Products LLC recommends this maintenance information for regular service. Sustained heavy operation may call for more frequent service. Snow plowing subjects a vehicle to exceptionally rugged use. As a result, it is very important to inspect and bring the snow plow and vehicle up to maximum operating conditions.
Pre-Season Maintenance Check the Diagnosis chart, pages 17-20 and Pre/Post Season Maintenance, pages 26-28, for advice on maintaining the unit. 1. Check and maintain hydraulic fluid reservoir level to Full. Oil level should be checked with lift ram down or retracted position. 2. Check entire hydraulic system for leaks. A significant drop in hydraulic fluid level is evidence of a leak which must be corrected to prevent serious damage. 3.
