Driving Hints

• If you are driving more than 15 mi (24 km) 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 15 mi (24 km) at speeds up to 45 mph (72 km/h) in cold weather, you do not need to worry about blade position to provide maximum airflow. Transmission Operation while Plowing WARNING Do not spin the wheels at over 34mph (55 km/h). The tiresmay fail and injure a passenger or bystander. • Shift transfer case to 4L (4WD Low) when plowing in small areas at speeds below 5 mph (8 km/h). • Shift transfer case to 4H (4WD High) whenplowing larger areas or light snow at higher speeds. Do not exceed 15mph (24 km/h). • Do not shift the transmission from a forward gear to R (Reverse) until the engine is at idle and the wheels have stopped. Outside Air TemperatureWhile Plowing While plowing with your vehicle, the plow blade can block the sensor airflow and cause the outside air temperature reading to be inaccurate. A Fordwiring kit is available to relocate the Outside Air Temperature sensor to the plow blade frame to provide more accurate outside air temperature readings. Contact an authorized dealer for more information.
