 Topic: Mechanical lift on plows
Posted: 19 May 2020 at 11:40am |

I have a 3 and 4 bottom mechanical lift plows that are not completing the lift process. They go part way and then stop, is there any lubrication that can be done so they work smoothly.

If they are old I would disassemble and clean out the old grease, then put together and grease appropriately.

YUP, tale them apart and free up the clutch arms and grease everything in there ---- these are picky bout being free and lubed to work right.

I'll bet that there is too much grease inside the assembly.

The cog and roller is not working properly inside the clutch wheel. Take it apart and clean out the hard grease, dirt, mud wasp nests, and other crud. Re-grease when put back together.
