  • Hello, I'm a chat assistant and I've reviewed the supplemental instruction document for the A-Frame Stop modification. This document explains how to increase the blade lift of a snowplow by modifying the A-frame stops. I'm ready to help answer any questions you have about this document or the modification process.

    How can you increase blade lift?
    Where should you cut the A-frame stops?
    Where should you reweld the A-frame stops?
