drains – Through the season, ensure driveway drains remain clear and
unobstructed, allowing snow an escape when it melts and less opportunity to re-
freeze.
Speed – Plowing requires a safe, manageable speed limit, generally 15 km/h (10
mph). Faster speed reduces your visibility by pushing or blowing snow onto the
windshield. If you hit an obstruction while plowing, the faster you're going, the
greater the potential for personal injury or damage to equipment.
Plan – Think of the season ahead when determining where to push snow. Start
snow banks back far enough that you have room for future snowfalls. Also, try to
push snow away from buildings first, if possible.
Stacking – As you near the far side of the lot, reduce speed and raise the blade to
prevent scraping turf, as well as to help stack the snow. Do not stack snow with the
blade set at an angle.
Overloading – Allow the snow depth and water content to determine the width of
your pass, or how much blade overlap you use for each pass. Move just enough
snow with each pass to clear efficiently without overloading your equipment the
plow or vehicle.
back-dragging – A common technique used in plowing driveways more than
three car lengths long, back-dragging may not be practical with a winch operated,
gravity-lowered plow. It involves driving forward to the starting point (usually the
garage door), dropping the blade, and pulling the snow back at least the length of
your vehicle plus plow (about two car lengths). Repeat the process across the full
width of the driveway. Turn around and back into the area just back-dragged clear
and push the snow to where the snow will be piled.
Angle – A blade set at an angle is more effective for cutting and clearing hard-
packed snow.
Traction – Ballast and snow chains, where allowed, are effective ways to increase
traction. Plowing deep snow requires a steady movement of the vehicle.

Detaching the snowplow

1. Drive the vehicle to a clear area.
2. Lower the blade.
3. Lower the three castors and lock them in the lowered position with their pins.
4. Raise the blade
5. Attach the safety chain to hold the blade in the raised position
6. Disconnect the electrical connections
7. Remove the hitch pin from the hitch receiver.
8. Roll the plow to its storage place
note: After disconnection of the snowplow, always apply dielectric grease to
the electrical connectors and plugs, maintaining the protective coating on the
terminals.
note: Cover the electrical connectors with the caps supplied and cover the
winch if stored outdoors.
9. To re-attach the snowplow to the vehicle, reverse the process above.
