# Mounting Instructions for a Western Snow Plow
Western is one of the leading manufacturers of snow plows and has been making them for many years. A snow plow is made of components that include the blade, the quadrant and the A-frame. The quadrant uses a pivot bolt to attach to the A-frame, and this allows for angling of the blade. The blade uses hydraulic power to lift and angle. Once you've installed the lift-mount assembly, Western snow plows are relatively simple to mount. The blade, quadrant and A-frame can all be mounted as one piece.
Instructions
-
-
1
Park the vehicle close behind the Western snow plow blade, quadrant and A-frame assembly so the ears line up with the couplings on the lift-mount assembly.
-
2
Grasp the chain and hook it to the lift channel.
-
3
Enter the cab and use the control to raise the lift channel so it lines up. Monitor the outside of the cab and keep people away.
-
4
Exit the cab and insert the hitch pins and hairpin cotters, attach any hydraulic hoses from the truck to the rams on the A-frame.
-
5
Go back into the cab and move the control to the lower float position.
-
6
From the outside again, push the lift channel all the way down. Tighten the chain by pulling it.
