Operation Warnings
n Stop engine before attempting adjustments
The snowmobile engine compartment contains moving parts.
Shields and guards have been provided for safety, but it is still
possible to carelessly get your hands or fingers into a moving chain
or a rotating shaft. For this reason never attempt adjustments with
the engine running. Serious personal injuries can result. The
proper method is to turn off the ignition, raise the hood, make the
adjustment, secure shields and guards, secure the hood, and then
re-start the engine to check its operation. The same is true of track
alignment. If the track must be re-aligned, it is recommended that
this service be performed by your dealer.
n Always wear clothing designed for snowmobiling
Clothing designed for snowmobiling is warm, comfortable and safe.
Always make sure the operator is wearing an approved helmet
and eye protection. Do not allow the child to wear loose clothing
or long scarves because they can easily become entangled in
moving parts. If your child has long hair, be sure it is always tied
up securely and tucked into the helmet or jacket.
Extremely cold weather can cause frostbite and/or hypothermia.
Always be aware of weather conditions, especially the wind chill.
