Introduction
Fransgård machines have been developed for the
professional user who values high capacity and reliability
and wants to perform the task easily and efficiently.
Fransgård snow blowers are only intended for use as
follows:
The removal of snow from roads and public spaces –
they must therefore only be used for this purpose. If
the user is interested in using them for other
purposes, they should contact
Fransgård Maskinfabrik A/S.
It is assumed that the work will be performed under
suitable conditions, including that the roads have been
cleared of foreign objects etc., to an appropriate degree.
Proper use of the machine also entails that you comply
with the factory’s preparation, operation and maintenance
instructions and that you contact an approved workshop
where necessary.

General information about the machine
Shut down the tractor engine and remove the ignition key
before touching the machine.
Always remember to shut down the tractor engine before
lubricating, adjusting, maintaining or repairing the
machine. You should also remove the ignition key so that
you can be sure no one will restart the tractor before you
have finished.
Remember:
Never let anyone go underneath the machine once it has
been hitched to the tractor.
Children:
Never let children near the machine while working. Small
children in particular have a habit of doing the
unexpected.
Under no circumstances allow anyone to approach
the machine or stand in its vicinity while in operation.
Risk of crushing on hitch-up:
No one should be permitted to stand between the tractor
and machine once the latter has been hitched to the
tractor. An uncontrolled manoeuvre can lead to the person
in question being crushed. An operating error can also
result in serious personal injury.
Maximum of 175 bar:
Make sure the hydraulic components are not subject to
pressures in excess of 175 bar, as they otherwise risk
terminal damage from explosive pressure build-up. You
would then be subjecting both yourself and others to a
serious risk of being hit by metal parts travelling at high
speeds, or by hot oil being expelled under high pressure.

Tractor requirements
The tractor driver should use ear defenders if full closure
of the cab is not possible.
In order to retain full control of the tractor in all conditions,
at least 20% of the tractor’s total weight must be
distributed over the front axle.
Tractor specifications vary greatly between individual
tractor makes and, for this reason, in the worst case
scenario it may prove necessary to adjust the weight
distribution using a couple of weights on the tractor’s front-
end.
The power take-off of the tractor must turn at 540 rpm and
the hitch linkage must be of Category 2.
The tractor must be equipped with at least one double-
acting hydraulic valve with a 1/2" female union, max. 175
bar.

Transport
When moving the machine, this must only be performed
as indicated in the drawing.
X : 2200 mm
Y : 2010 mm
Z : 1250 mm
Weight : 560 kg

Assembly
Fit the rotating collar to the frame.
Fit the oil pump.
Adjust the oil pump so that it is as near to the rotating
collar as possible. Then check that the rotating collar can
be rotated by hand through 360 degrees unhindered.
Fit the chute to the rotating collar.
It is important that these bolts are fully tightened and that
they are routinely retightened at regular intervals.
Hitching up the machine
During hitching and unhitching, the tractor engine must be
switched off. You should always make sure that there is
no one between the tractor and machine during hitching or
unhitching. An uncontrolled manoeuvre involving the
tractor could lead to anyone in that area being crushed.
Slowly reverse the tractor up to the snow blower, shut
down the tractor engine, and fit the tractor hitch linkage in
the three-point frame and the top link in the three-point
frame’s top link fastening.
7
Set the top link so that the machine stands on its skid
shoes and the points of the wear strips are approx. 10 mm
from the ground.
Fit the hydraulic hoses in the tractor’s hydraulic flow and
return unions.
Before activating the hydraulic system, you should check
that all hydraulic connections are tight and all hoses and
fittings are undamaged. Once the tractor’s engine has
been shut down, you should also activate the hydraulic
system to ensure no pressure remains in the hydraulic
hoses.
Hydraulic oil under pressure can penetrate under the skin
and cause serious inflammation. You should protect your
skin and eyes at all times against oil spray. If an accident
does occur, and you are exposed to hydraulic oil under
pressure, you should consult a doctor immediately.
Fit the tractor’s power take-off. Secure the safety chain to
the snow blower.
NB! There must always be a shear bolt connection on the
power take-off shaft, max. 3500 Nm. Use of a power take-
off shaft that is not approved by Fransgård Maskinfabrik
A/S will invalidate any claims under warranty.
No one should be near the machine during start-up, as
there may be air in the hydraulic system resulting in
possible sudden movements.
Remember: The protective guard on the power take-off
shaft must not be fractured if work is being performed with
the machine. If necessary, replace the protective guard.
When fitting the power take-off shaft, you must ensure the
following has been attended to before using the machine:
8
- The shaft must be of a size and quality that will
meet the approval requirements of Fransgård
Maskinfabrik A/S; if necessary, contact your
dealer/importer.
- Make sure the shaft’s protective guard is intact and
that the two shaft halves can slide together.
- The length of the power take-off shaft must be
properly adjusted; a shaft that is too long will inflict
terminal damage on the blower’s gearbox. If you
have cut the shaft, you must file down the ends of
the steel tubes so that they can slide easily
together without scraping. Remember the need for
lubrication; for other tasks see the power take-off
shaft instruction manual.
- Check that the power take-off shaft can be rotated
by hand to ensure that it does not catch at any
point.
- Check that the power take-off shaft does not
become tensioned when the machine is moved to
its maximum and minimum height settings. If the
blower is mounted at the rear, make sure there is
clearance between the ground and the snow blower
when the tractor is being driven. Note that where
the shaft is very short, the angle on the shaft may
be too large. Contact your dealer/importer if this is
the case.
Unhitching is the hitching sequence in reverse.
Fitting additional equipment
Fitting side cutter:
- Fit as indicated on the spare parts pages.
Fitting hydraulic chute deflector control:
- Fit as indicated on the spare parts pages.
- 1 double-acting valve set needed, fitted using a 1/2"
female union.
- Remember to retighten the hydraulic components to
prevent oil spills.
