Ski Skags
WARNING
Worn skis and/or skags will adversely affect handling. Loss of
vehicle control may result, causing serious injury or death.
See your dealer’s studding chart for recommended skags. If you
install longer or more aggressive carbide skags than the original
equipment, it may also be necessary to add track studs to
maintain proper vehicle control while turning on hard-packed
snow or ice.
Check skags weekly to maintain positive steering charact eristics. Skags
must be replaced when worn to half their original diameter.
NOTE: Carbide skags must be replaced if any abnormal wear or
chipping is found.
Skag Replacement
1. Raise and support the front of the
machine so the skis are
approximately 6″ (15.2 cm) from
the ground.
2. Remove the attaching hardware
and pry the skag (A) downward.
3. Remove the forward portion of
the skag.
Reverse this procedure for new skag
installation.
