STEP 1: (Fig. 1) (Fig. 2) PLOW ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS STEP 1a Attach pivot bar to Moldboard using pivot pins coated with chassis lubricant and 1/8" Cotter Pin. (Figure 1). STEP 1b (Fig. 3) (Fig. 4) Attach trip springs to pivot bar and moldboard with eye bolts (Figure 2). Flat end of eye bolt must be in a vertical position to hinge properly when moldboard trips. Proper tension is attained when trip spring coils begin to separate and then tighten top locknut four additional turns.
STEP 2: (Fig. 9) MOUNT ASSEMBLY STEP 2a If equipped, remove the existing bottom skid plate from ATV and retain. 35" STEP 2b Attach both adjusting plates to ATV tubular frame using 5/16-18 U-bolt, 5/16" flatwasher and 5/16-18 locknut. Leave loose, do not tighten at this time. (Figure 9). STEP 2c (Fig. 10) Slide in 1/2-13 x 1-1/2" carriage bolt into both adjusting plates. Use one of the three slots which will position the carriage bolt 35" (minimum) from the front of the ATV (Figure 9).
STEP 3: (Fig. 12) ATTACHING PLOW TO MOUNT Universal Mount STEP 3a Attach ATV plow assembly to universal mount (Figure 12) using 3/8 x 1-1/2" clevis pin coated with chassis lubricant and 1/8" Hair Pin Cotter. STEP 3b Plow Assembly Move plow up, down, left and right manually to check for interference with ATV components. If interference is encountered the ATV mounting assembly may need to be adjusted.
STEP 4: Meyer Patented Self Angling OPERATING PLOW STEP 4a – Raise and Lower Methods The ATV plow is raised and lowered using the ATV’s winch or optional manual lift is available. Reverse STEP 4b – Angling Methods The plow can be angled using two methods: 1) Self Angling automatically positions the plow to the plow side with the heaviest amount of snow and when raised will automatically return to the center or straight position. (Next page).
PLOWING (WITH SELF ANGLING) (Fig. 16) SELF ANGLING OPERATION: The Self Angling feature is designed to automatically angle the plow left or right depending on the amount of snow weight detected going forward or backward when moving. Once the force of the snow is released the plow automatically returns to the center or straight position. The operator can easily pre-determine the plow angle direction by positioning the blade/plow into the snow with the most weight, this will self-angle the blade accordingly.
PRE-SEASON & POST-SEASON MAINTENANCE Meyer Products 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 maintain the snow plow and vehicle up to maximum operating conditions. Inspection should be made of both the vehicle and snow plow prior to the plowing season and after each use.
