Plow will not lock in the up position

Recommended Posts

Sodaking27

Removed the deck off of the C105 and installed the plow. Now the plow will not lock in the up position. The deck would lock in the up position without any issues. I tried adjusting the height setting with the adjuster, made no difference. I can pull the handle back and the plow frame will hit the front crossbar. Any thoughts? Nothing like waiting to the last minute to get ready for the storm.

Is the button on the top end of the hand spring back out?  If not, that could indicate a weak spring in the handle.

Are you using a solid lift link?  If so, do you have it in the correct hole so the lift mechanism is actually coming up far enough for the lift larch mechanism to engage?

Just some thoughts!

It’s either #23, the nut. I don’t think it would be the nut. Or do you have the plow in the right hole?

Button is popping back out.

Thought about the lift link as well. It’s not stock and has several holes. Will check in the AM.

Thanks for your advice.

You answered your own question.   Increase the length of whatever you  are using to connect the plow frame to the rock shaft.

:text-yeahthat:x 3. Old age and being in a hurry doesn’t work too well sometimes.

As everyone stated the lift link was in the wrong hole. :angry-banghead:

Thanks to everyone..
