Safety --- It s in your intrest! Safety Guidelines Safety or operation is noe of our main concerns, however it is up to the operator to practice cauton! To avoid personal injury, study the following precautions and insist that all those working with you follow them as well. The Meteor Skidsteer Snowblower has a shield covering the auger motor and the hydraulic lines leading to the motor. Do not use with cover loose or missing. Replace any decals that may missing or not readable. Location of decals are indicated elswhere in this manual. Do not use this machine while under the influance of drugs or alchohol. This equipment should not be operated by children: or those unfamiliar with the operation of the Meteor Snowblower. Do not allow persons to operate this machine untill thay have read this manual and/or where instructed by a qualified person. Do not use this machine to push snow as this can resault in the augers to be broken or bent. When removing ice and snow from themachine; Stop the engine and remove the keys on the Loader and disconet and disconect the chute control wire! This will reduce the posability of the blower to be started and causing personal injury. 5

Skid Steer Meteor Snowblower Assembly For shipping the chute is not installed on the Snowblower. After receiving the blower unpack the chute and attach it to the blower as shown below. Spacer Anti Friction Ring Shield Lower Retainer Apply a light coat of grease to both sides of the plastic Anti Friction Ring and center on top of the fan outlet. Next place Chute on top of plastic ring. Position the Lower Retainer below the flange of the fan outlet -- place the Spacer on top of the Lower Retainer and bolt it to th Chute with 5/16x1 1/2 bolts. 7
Operation of the Skid Steer Meteor Snowblower This blower is designed to blow snow with a Skid Steer Loader using the hydraulics to power the fan and auger. The chute is controlled with the loader electrics. The blower is a loader attachment and is mounted the same way as all loader attachments. Make sure that the latches are locked in position after attaching the blower. The chute is controlled with the loader electrics. The controller consists of a battery wire, a control handle and control wire to the blower. The handle has 2 switches, one for the rotation and the other for the optional powers deflector adjuster. The battery wire has battery clamps for the battery and a plug on the other end to plug into the handle. The clamp with the red sleeve on the wire goes to the positive batteryterminal. Inside the handle is a 20 amp breaker to protect the circuit and the motor. The control wire has 2 sets of wires, one for the rotator and one for the optional powered deflector adjuster. The wires can be routed out of the back of the cab and along the loader arms for less interference with the operator. The second wire will allow you to add the deflector control without replacing the electric control and wires. The switches are momentary rocker switches and will return to off when the switch is let go. After the blower is attached to the loader including both the electrics and hydraulic line. Start the loader engine and check to see if the blower is turning in the right direction, or it may not be turning at all, as we use a check valve to allow overrunning. If the fan is not turning move the hydraulic control the other way or switch the hydraulic lines at the loader coupling. This will reverse the hydraulic flow. If the chute buttons are reversed according to your preference you may reverse the battery cables at the battery or if only one of the circuits are to be reversed, the chute motor wires can be reversed at the motor connections. Operating the Skid Steer Meteor Snowblower When starting the blower, gradually bring the blower to full speed. Do not have the engine running at full speed and suddenly open the hydraulic valve. This put a tremendous strain on all drive components. Have the engine running at full speed while blowing snow. This will turn the fan at maximum speed and best performance. Try to keep the blower from becoming overloaded as this will slow the fan speed and a drop in performance. Note: light powder snow will blow better then heavy wet snow. Try to keep the blower level to the ground while blowing. If it seems to ride up over the hard packed surface, tilt the blower ahead slightly. With the loader it is possible to tilt the blower ahead until the auger digs into the surface. Be very careful when doing this as the auger and the machine could be damaged. While blowing snow be aware where the stream of snow is going. Do not direct it toward windows, vehicles, objects that could be damaged, or people that could be injured. 8

Meteor Skid Steer Blower General Maintenance Check hydraulic lines periodically to ensure that they are not rubbing on the frame Be on the lookout for loose nuts and bolts, tighten as required The electric chute control should not need a lot of attention. Check for wires that may be rubbing or catching on the frame Lubrication Auger Bearing - grease sparingly every 20-40 hours. By using too much grease the seals will be forced off the bearing and allow dirt and debris to contaminate the bearing Auger -- drive end -- there is a grease fitting on the auger core to lubricate the drive spline. Grease 1 shot every 50-100 hours. This avoids undue wear of the splines in the coupler. Note: Abbreviations used OL - Obtain Locally c/w - Complete With lw- Lockwasher fw - Flatwasher n - Nut ln - Locknut 20
