tant because when reversing occurs in the lift position, the plow will list to one
side in an unsafe manner.
When plowing or when carrying the plow in a raised position, if the cylinder
does not hold the load, the hydraulic relief pressure is set too low and should be
increased to the point where the plow will work satisfactorily. For plowing snow,
this pressure setting is approximately 2,000 pounds per square inch (psi).
Mounting instructions for the 225B hitch
on military truck with winch
This truck has a hydraulical winch that operates the plow lift and reversing
mechanism.
The valve bank has two sections: one section has an open center, and the
other has a closed center position. Because the plow needs two valve sections
with closed center positions, it will be necessary to replace one section on the
valve bank. (See instructions shipped with plow.)
The front of the truck also is supplied with two tow hooks. These two tow
hooks must be removed in order to mount the hitch.
Angle will rest on top
of truck rail.
