OPERATION
Track Warm-Up
WARNING! A loose track or flying debris could cause serious injury or death.
Stand clear of the front of the snowmobile and the moving track. Never hold the
snowmobile up or stand behind it while warming up the track. Do not use
excessive throttle during warm-up or when the track is free-hanging. Use a
stable rear support.
WARNING! Use of traction products such as studs, ice growsers, etc. will
increase the possibility of track damage and/or failure. This could cause loss of
control, resulting in serious injury or death. Always inspect for track damage
before operating the snowmobile.
Follow these steps to ensure proper warm-up of the engine, drive train
and track.
1. Use an appropriate stand to securely support the rear of the snow-
mobile at the rear bumper. The track should be about 4I (10 cm) off
the ground.
2. Start the engine and allow it to warm up two to three minutes.
3. Depress the throttle abruptly and allow the track to rotate several
revolutions.
TIP:It will take longer to warm up the track sufficiently during colder outdoor
temperatures.
4. Release the throttle, apply the brakes, shut off the engine and lower
the snowmobile to the ground.
5. Grasp the skis by their front loops and move them from side to side
to loosen snow and ice.
Slide Rail and Track Cooling
NOTICE: Inadequate cooling and lubrication will lead to overheating of the slide
rail and track, resulting in premature wear and failure. Reduce speeds
and frequently drive into fresh snow to allow adequate cooling and
polishing of the slide rail and track surfaces. Avoid operating on ice,
hard-packed surfaces or roads.
