ANTPER 211 #1 Posted 7 hours ago Hello. Mounted a plow to a Hydro 518. It will only angle with the lever to my right. It wont angle to left as the angle lever hits foot peg without enough room yo travel. What am I missing? Foot pegs longer on 518 on right? This plow is not original to this 518.TIA Anthony Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,874 #4 Posted 6 hours ago The lever is symmetrical so you can turn it around. Would that help? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ed Kennell 43,880 #7 Posted 2 hours ago I have had to turn some levers around, bend some, and put spacers in some to clear foot rests and foot pedals. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peter lena 9,583 #8 Posted 1 hour ago @ANTPER have to se your set up , but plows require a detailed set up , makes me wonder about your plow quadrant set up , agree with @Ed Kennell on possibilities , amazing difference when set up correctly , pete 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 63,219 #9 Posted 1 hour ago I do about 90% of my snow plowing to the right, go down, turn around and come back up, repeat, repeat, then turn it back to the mid position to tidy up the turn around area. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
