Track Tension and Alignment
Tension
NOTE : Ride the snowmobile in snow about 15 to 20 minutes
prior to adjusting track tension.
Lift rear of snowmobile and support it with a mechanical stand.
Allow the suspension to extend normally and check gap half-way
along slider shoe. The gap should be as given in the specification
section of this guide. If the track tension is too loose, track will have
a tendency to thump.
NOTE : A belt tension tester (P/N 414 3482 00) may be used to
measure deflection as well as force applied.
