SNOWPLOWING

Ford recommends the following specifications for low speed, personal

use snow removal:

• F-150 4x4 (except F-150 Supercrew, Lightning and Harley-Davidson

models)

• 5.4L engine

• Heavy-duty service package

• Super engine cooling

• Heavy-duty front suspension package

• Automatic transmission with auxiliary automatic transmission fluid

cooling

• All-terrain tires

• Limited slip and optional axle ratio.

Do not install a snowplow and plow with your vehicle until it has been

driven at least 800 km (500 miles).

Installing the snowplow

Read the following instructions before installing a snowplow:

• Front GAWR must not exceed 63% of the GVW. Add ballast weight to

the back of the vehicle, if necessary. Refer to the Safety Compliance

Certification Label to find your vehicle’s front GAWR.

• The Front Axle Accessory Reserve Capacity and the TARC listed on

the bottom right of the Safety Compliance Certification Label will

determine whether or not the addition of a snowplow will overload

your vehicle.

• The weight of the snowplow and supporting components distributed to

the front axle must not exceed the Front Axle Accessory Reserve

Capacity.

• The total weight of the snowplow and aftermarket equipment must

not exceed the TARC.

• The weight of the installed snowplow and aftermarket equipment must

not load the vehicle beyond the GAWR (front/rear) and GVWR listed

on the Safety Compliance Certification Label.

• The total weight of the snowplow and aftermarket equipment must be

considered part of the payload and must not exceed the GCWR for

towing.
