Everything seems to be hooked up as I recall and how the prints show but when I hit any button on the controller it just switches between my plow lights and my lower headlights. Any ideas what the...

  3. Western Plows Discussion
    Hello all, I have a problem that the plow won’t raise. I’ve scoured the Internet and can’t find a similar situation. If I’m not pushing snow, I can raise and lower all day long. Sometimes (45% of the time ish) when I hit a snow bank, the plow won’t go up. I will have to keep hitting raise and...

    PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!! so my 7.5 poly plow has been acting up. The plow and motor act like I’m holding down the button after I’ve let go. Once it moves as far over/up as it can go it locks in and runs the motor and pump as if I’m holding the controller buttons. I just spent 350 on a new...
  5. Western Plows Discussion
    hi I'm looking to get a new Plow. Leaning towards to the western wide out from a straight blade pro but I notice there are only 4 springs and no shock.... my pro had 4 springs and a shock which softened the blade return. I'm worried the wideout will fly back at me like my crappy midweight I had...

    Need some advice from those of you who are experienced with Hiniker plows since this is my first one. I had the dealer put my plow on and adjust everything, worked great for the first two snows. On our last snow, I have the plow in the V and lower it, the two outside wings are in the air still...

    We run Truck Craft TC 160 salt spreaders on our dumps. Right now 3 of our 4 are having issues with the control boxes overloading on amperage and throwing a safety shut off. It seems to only happen after you dump the salt back and have the spreader tray completely full. After you run about half...

    I need help on my 2004 F250. Just got about 6 inches of snow. I use this truck to plow my private road. A few other residences on the road rely on my plowing. I usually use 4WD Low and gear 2 on automatic transmission to plow. Hub manually locked. But today, when I shifted to 2, and pressed on...

    So the bucket stopped moving. After some time of frustration and searching forums I found that it could be a fuse. The fuse for switched attachments. Replaced it and it worked fine. After two weeks it blew again. When i tried to replace it the second time, it blew at contact. So i'm guessing...

    Hey guys, I just finished up changing the fluid in my Fisher MM2 plow. But for some reason now when i hit the plow to angle left it pop up a little but not a lot, just about an inch. Im not sure if this is serious or not. All fluid change and air purge procedures were followed. Hoses were...

    I am new to the plowsite and last year I ran into a problem where my pump would stop working at random times. I would use the joystick and just hear one click at the pump but no movement and this would go out for about an hour and then return for maybe 15 minutes of use. I bought the truck and...

    Can anyone tell me why when I plug in the lighting plug to my plow my trucks headlights go off (as designed) but the headlights on the plow don't?? I have checked all the fuses on the harnesses but they're all good. I would appreciate any thoughts and ideas on this. The closest Fisher dealer...

    Hey, Is there a way to fix the light mounts on a 2003 BOSS without having to replace the whole assembly? Theres gotta be others out there with this problem! The mounts get all corroded and quickly become loose, and youve gotta use a bungee to hold them on. Let me know, thanks!
  16. Residential Snow Removal
    Sorry for the long post, but I want to give a bit of background to my question: who here has difficulty keeping their snowblower going in a straight line? In a thread on another forum where snowblowers were being discussed, a new single stage Toro 421Q owner complained that his brand new...
  17. Boss Plows Discussion
    I have an 8' S.D. strait blade on a 2006 F-250. I have a "sometimes" problem of my joystick not lighting up, and when there is no light to the joystick you can't move the plow. The headlights still work normally, just the controller doesn't work. I can't find a loose ground and all of my...
