FAQs

Why is my SnowDogg controller blinking red light? ›

If the controller is blinking, the problem is electrical – not hydraulic. Do not spend time troubleshooting and cleaning valves if the controller is blinking. Use a test light to measure for +12V at coils and connectors. Use a multimeter/ohmmeter to measure for continuity.

What does a blinking red light mean? ›

FLASHING RED—A flashing red signal light means exactly the same as a stop sign: STOP! After stopping, proceed when safe and observe the right-of-way rules. RED ARROW—A red arrow means STOP until the green signal or green arrow appears. A turn may not be made against a red arrow.

How do I fix the red light on my controller? ›

Can I use transmission fluid in a snow plow pump? ›

We don't recommend ATF for use in our snowplows. ATF can hold moisture and can cause problems with the valves freezing and or frost build up on the pick-up screen of the pump. We recommend using a snowplow specific fluid like our HINIKER COLD FLOW oil which meets a military spec. of 5606.

Change Your Hydraulic Fluid. Just like cars needs oil changes, a plow needs its hydraulic fluid flushed and replaced on an annual basis.

Do you plow in float mode? ›

Most modern plows will have a float mode which allows the plow to move up and down over bumpy or uneven terrain. Double-tap on the down button to put the blade into float mode. If your plow doesn't have a float mode, simply press the down button until the bottom edge of the plow touches the ground.

How do you stay awake when plowing snow? ›

Since you'll be out all night, you'll get hungry and will need a jolt of caffeine to keep you from drifting off. 2. If you find yourself getting tired and hypnotized by the snow falling, stop the truck, get out, take deep breathes, stretch and wake yourself up.

What is the best lubricant for snow plows? ›

JAX Snowplow Grease is uniquely developed for outstanding long-lasting protection against sticking and wear for metal-on-metal snowplow applications such as wing posts and husting hitches. JAX Snowplow Grease can also be effectively used on “wet” mechanicals such as those in water parks.

What do you spray on snow plow blades? ›

SNO-FLO is a clear coating that you spray onto your snow fighting equipment to prevent high moisture content snow and ice slush from bonding to the inside of your loader buckets, snow blower discharge chutes, snow plows and around the trucks wheel-wells.

Why is my Remote blinking red? ›

If you're experiencing a red blinking LED of your Remote when in the Receiver, it could mean that: The Receiver is not powered enough to charge the Remotes. There was an error in the Firmware installation. The Remote's battery is faulty.

Why is my controller charger blinking red? ›

If it was charging fine and it starts blinking red that means that it's either overheated or overcharged. Let it cool down or if it's at 100% then stop charging it. If you're using the wrong AC adapter then it'll flash red even if the controllers are not on it.

Why is my move controller flashing red? ›

When properly plugged in and charging, a flashing red light should appear until the controller is fully charged. When the battery is fully charged, the red light will stop flashing. If this does not happen, the battery is faulty.
