Maintenance
All Models
There are no wear parts anywhere in the system
and there are no adjustments to be periodically
checked. The only possible maintenance required
wouldbecleaningofcarbondepositsfromthe
guillotine slide. Cleaning intervals would depend
upon the user’s riding style and the quality of the
oil used.
Bombardier suggests annual cleaning of the valve.
If a customer uses lower quality oil, than recom-
mended, more frequent cleaning may be required.
No special solvents or cleaners are required when
cleaning the valve.
On SDI models, check if solenoid heating ele-
ment is still functional once a year, the element
should be warm after one minute of riding. At the
same time, check if crankcase check valve is still
functional.
NOTE: Make sure hoses are not kinked or dam-
aged.
