Installing the snowplow
Removing the blocker beam without installing snowplow
attachment hardware may affect air bag deployment in a crash.
Do not operate the truck unless either the blocker beam or snowplow
attachment hardware is installed on the vehicle.
Read the following instructions before installing a snowplow:
²Front GAWR must not exceed 63% of the GVW. Add ballast weight to
the back of the vehicle, if necessary. Refer to the Safety Compliance
Certification Label to find Front GAWR.
²The Front Axle Accessory Reserve Capacity and the Total Accessory
Reserve Capacity listed on the bottom right of the Safety Compliance
Certification Label will determine whether or not the addition of a
snowplow will overload your vehicle.
²The weight of the snowplow and supporting components distributed to
the front axle must not exceed the front accessory reserve capacity.
²The total weight of the snowplow and aftermarket equipment must
not exceed the Total Accessory Reserve Capacity.
²The weight of the installed snowplow and aftermarket equipment must
not load the vehicle beyond the GAWR (front/rear) and GVWR listed
on the Safety Compliance Certification Label.
²The total weight of the snowplow and aftermarket equipment must be
considered part of the payload and must not exceed the Gross
Combined Weight Rating (GCWR) for towing.
²Federal and most local regulations require additional exterior lamps
for snowplow-equipped vehicles. Consult your dealer for additional
information.
²After installing a snowplow to the vehicle, ensure the vehicle's front
toe alignment and front ride height are within specification (reset if
required). These specifications are located in the vehicle's Workshop
Manual. Adherence to the toe, tire pressures and ride height
specification is important for proper tire wear, ride, handling and
headlight aim. Also, maintain the engine oil and transmission fluid
change intervals following the severe duty schedule.
Do not exceed the GVWR or the GAWR specified on the
certification label.

Transmission fluid capacity
2Refer toRefill capacitiesin the
Capacities and specificationschapter.
1Use Ford Premium Engine Coolant (green in color). DO NOT USE Ford
Extended Life Engine Coolant (orange in color). Refer toAdding engine
coolant, in the Maintenance and Care chapter.
2Ensure the correct automatic transmission fluid is used. Transmission fluid
requirements are indicated on the dipstick or on the dipstick handle. Check the
container to verify the fluid being added is of the correct type. Refer to your
scheduled maintenance guide to determine the correct service interval.
Some transmission fluids may be labeled as dual usage, such as MERCONtand
MERCONtV. These dual usage fluids are not to be used in an automatic
transmission that requires use of the MERCONttype fluid. However, these dual
usage fluids may be used in transmissions that require the MERCONtV type
fluid.
MERCONtand MERCONtV type fluids are not interchangeable. DO NOT
mix MERCONtand MERCONtV. Use of a transmission fluid that
indicates dual usage (MERCONtand MERCONtV) in an automatic
transmission application requiring MERCONtmay cause transmission
damage. Use of any fluid other than the recommended fluid may cause
transmission damage.
