(SNPS-5)
Be particularly careful in transport. The Implement has raised and moved the center of
gravity to the front of the Po wer Unit increasing the poss ibility of overturn and ti pping
forward. Turn curves or go up slopes only at low speed and using a gradual turning angle.
Go up slopes with the Implement located uphill. Slow down on rough or uneven surfaces.
(SPU-2)
Do not stand or allow bystander or coworkers between the attachment
and the truck or powe r unit while ins talling or disconnecting the
attachment. Ke ep hands and body clear of th e attachment and the
attachment mounts. Serious injury or death can result from a person
being crushed between the attachment and truck or power unit.

Reset the tripped snow p low edge by r aising the snow plow off the ground. DO NOT
attempt to reset the trip edge by hand. T he trip edge is spring loaded and sudden and
