OPERATION
Operating The Snow Blade
The snow blade is used to clear snow from sidewalks, drive-
ways and parking lots
.
Trip Springs
The snow blade is equipped with trip springs (Item 1) which
will allow the snow blade to tilt forward when the cutting
edge hits an obstruction.
Reset the trip spring after hitting an obstruction, raise the
snow blade, or slowly back up the utility vehicle.
WARNING!
AVOID SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH
Hitting obstructions with the snow blade angled and the front tires
off the ground can cause loss of traction. Ensure the front tires are
in contact with the ground at all times.
Pushing Snow
Change the angle of the snow blade to the desired position.
See page 16.
With the operator in the operator’s position and seat belt fas-
tened, start the engine. See BRUTUS owner’s manual for
detailed information.
The snow blade can be used in either the float position or
lowered to the desired position with the joystick. See page
20.
Move the utility vehicle forward to push snow.
