Hydraulic Brake Inspection

n
Inspect the brake lever reserve before each use of the snowmobile. See
page 53.
Brake pads must be replaced when the brake pad material becomes
thinner than the backing plate (approximately 1/16"). A kit is available
for replacing brake pads. See your dealer.
WARNING
Brake failure during operation can result in serious injury or
death. Properly functioning brakes are vital to your safety. Be
sure the brake pads do not drag on the disc and that brake lever
travel is not excessive.
Always replace brake pads when the brake pad material
becomes thinner than the backing plate (approximately 1/16").

(see page 88), bring the
machine to an authorized

and adjustment.
