ENGLISH
Pull the rope using a sharp, crisp pull so the rope comes free of the drive pulley.
Start the engine as per usual manual starting.
When starting the snowmobile in an emergency situation, using drive pulley, do
not reinstall the belt guard and return slowly to have snowmobile repaired.
Shutting down the engine
Release throttle lever and wait until engine has returned to idle speed.
Shut down the engine using either ignition switch, engine cut-out switch or tether
cut-out switch.
NOTE! In 4-tec models the shut down the engine must be done only by engine
cut-out switch. This gives the fan to operate longer if the engine has gone under
heavy pulling conditions this is to prevent overheating. Do not remove the tether
cut-out switch until the fan has stopped.
Always remove tether cord cap and key when vehicle is not in operation in
order to prevent accidental engine starting or to avoid unauthorized use by
others or theft.
Vehicle warm-up
Before every ride, vehicle has to be warmed up as follows:
Snowmobile must be securely supported by the rear bumper using a wide-base
snowmobile mechanical stand. Track must be 100 mm off the ground.
Start engine and allow it to warm up two or three minutes at idle speed.
Release barking brake.
Make sure wide-base snowmobile mechanical stand is stable. Stay clear of
the front of vehicle and the track. Do not use too much throttle during warm-up
or when track is free-hanging.
Apply throttle until drive pulley engages. Let track rotate at low speed for several
turns. The lower the vehicle temperature is the longer vehicle warm-up should be.
Shut-off the engine and remove the wide base snowmobile mechanical stand.
Skis may be frozen on the ground. Grab both skis one at a time by their loops
and lift their front end slightly off the ground.
After restarting engine, the vehicle can be driven at low speed for the first 2 or 3
minutes of riding. After that, it may be driven up to the legal speed limit as per
normal safety practices.
Post operation care
Shut down the engine. Install rear of vehicle on a wide-base snowmobile mechanical stand.
Remove snow and ice from rear suspension, track, front suspension, mechanism and skis.
Protect vehicle with a snowmobile cover.
