Can a plow move left, right and up?
PLOW moves left, right and up, BUT won’t go down!!! I’m new to this whole plow industry and had midweight plow (ultra mount) for few years. I didn’t have problems before, this is the first. it acts like it has no power and goes down like 2/3 very slowly. I did changed hydraulic fluid just today to see if that helps but no luck.
Why does my plow blade not go down?
It comes out just like a spark plug but if the blade is not all the way down put the jack back under or oil will fly if the fluid is under pressure. If the coil comes off with resistance the valve stem is swollen and the valve needs to be replaced.
What to do if your snow plow won’t lower?
Plow will not lower. Check power/ground cables and control cables are connected properly. Connect. Check flow control valve. If flow control valve is completely closed, place RAISE/LOWER switch on control box in NEUTRAL, then open the flow control valve. Check wiring on valve block for proper connections. Refer to the wiring diagram in this manual.

Why does my plow won’t go up?
The plow motor has always seemed a bit weak, so I’ve baby’d it (retracting blades before lifting, etc.). First time out this year, on Sunday, and after a few passes, the plow wouldn’t go up anymore. I’ve done a fair amount of troubleshooting, and think it is probably the motor, but I’d like some other opinions on whether I’m guessing correctly.
What should hydraulic fluid level be on boss snow plow?
Plow will not raise or raises slowly (pump motor runs). Check hydraulic fluid level. Hydraulic fluid level should be within ¾” from top of reservoir when lowered and in the V-position. Check power/ground cables and control cable are connected properly. Connect. Check wiring on valve block for proper connections.
What to do if your snow plow pump is not working?
Pump continues to run with switch in neutral. Disconnect control box, ignition ON. If pump continues to run, solenoid has failed in the closed position. Quickly remove power to the pump by disconnecting the power/ground cables to the plow. Replace solenoid.
