Driving Hints • If you are driving more than 15 miles (24 kilometers) at temperatures above freezing, angle the plow blade either full left or full right to provide maximum airflow to the radiator. If you are driving less than 15 miles (24 kilometers) at speeds up to 45 mph (72 km/h) in cold weather, you will not need to worry about blade position to provide maximum airflow. • Transmission operation while plowing WARNING Do not spin the wheels at over 35 mph (55 km/h). The tires may fail and injure a passenger or bystander. • Shift transfer case to 4L (4WD Low) when plowing in small areas at speeds below5.0 mph (8 km/h). Shift transfer case to 4H (4WD High) when plowing larger areas or light snow at higher speeds. Do not exceed 15 mph (24 km/h). Do not shift the transmission from a forward gear to R (Reverse) until the engine is at idle and the wheels have stopped. • • Outside Air Temperature While Plowing While plowing with your vehicle, the plow blade can block the sensor airflow and cause the outside air temperature reading to be inaccurate. A Ford wiring kit is available to relocate the Outside Air Temperature sensor to the plow blade frame below the headlamp to provide accurate outside air temperature readings. See your authorized dealer for more information. 212 F150 (TF6)
