Do not attempt to service, repair, or modify the Air Bag

Supplemental Restraint System or its fuses. See your Ford or

Lincoln Mercury dealer.

Additional equipment such as snowplow equipment may effect

the performance of the air bag sensors increasing the risk of

injury. Please refer to the Body Builders Layout Book for instructions

about the appropriate installation of additional equipment.

Engine temperature while plowing

When driving with a plow, your engine may run at a higher temperature

than normal because the attached snowplow blade will restrict airflow to

the radiator.

If you are driving more than 24 km (15 miles) at temperatures above

freezing, angle the plow blade either full left or full right to provide

maximum airflow to the radiator.

If you are driving less than 24 km (15 miles) at speeds up to 64 km/h

(40 mph) in cold weather, you will not need to worry about blade

position to provide maximum airflow.

Transmission operation while plowing

• Shift transfer case to 4L (4WD Low) when plowing in small areas at

speeds below 8 km/h (5 mph).

• Shift transfer case to 4H (4WD High) when plowing larger areas or

light snow at higher speeds. Do not exceed 24 km/h (15 mph).

• Do not shift the transmission from a forward gear to R (Reverse) until

the engine is at idle and the wheels are stopped.

• If the vehicle is stuck, shift the transmission in a steady motion

between forward and reverse gears. Do not rock the vehicle for more

than a few minutes. The transmission and tires may be damaged or

the engine can overheat.

Do not rock the vehicle if the engine is not at operating

temperature. Do not rock the vehicle for more than a minute. The

transmission and tires may be damaged or the engine may overheat.

Do not spin the wheels at over 35 mph (55 km/h). The tires may

fail and injure a passenger or bystander.
