Choke
The choke levers are located on the left side of each car-
buretor. To engage choke depress each lever. To disen-
gage lift levers.
o
NOTE: Do not operate vehicle with choke on.
Fuel Gauge
To check fuel level, simply look through the translucent
tank.
•
WARNING: Never use a lite match or open flame
to check fuel level.
Hood Removal
For those procedures that require hood removal, un-
hook side latches then remove hood from vehicle by
sliding it forward.
•
WARNING: It is dangerous to run engine with hood
removed.
BREAK-IN PERIOD
FUEL MIXING
Oil must be added
to
the gasoline in pre-measured
amounts then both oil and gasoline should be thorough-
ly mixed together before fueling the tank.
Recommended Gasoline
High octane gasoline must be used. Ex.: Aviation gaso-
line light blue
100
octane or light green
100-130
octane.
. . , CAUTION: Never experiment with different fuel or
•
fuel ratios. Never use low lead or non leaded ga-
line, naphtha, methanol or similar products.
Recommended Oil
Use a
50/1
Blizzard snowmobile oil, this type of oil is
specially formulated to meet lubrication requirements of
the high performance Bombardier-Rotax engine .
. . , CAUTION: Use of other than recommended oil
•
can result in engine damage.
Fuel Mixture Ratio
Fuel Mixing Procedure
The importance of using the correct fuel mixture cannot
be overstressed. An incorrect fuel ratio results in serious
engine damage.
Recommended fuel/oil ratio is 20/1.
Imperial Measures
2 cans of 16 oz Blizzard oil to 4 Imp. gals
20
to 1.
U.S. Measures
2 cans of 12 oz Blizzard oil to 4 U.
S.
gals
20 to 1
O
NOTE: To facilitate fuel mixing, oil should be kept
at room temperature.
With Bombardier-Rotax engines, a break-in period of
2
operating hours is required before running the vehicle at
full throttle. During this period, brief full throttle accel-
erations and constant speed variation will contribute to
a good bread-in. Continued wide open throttle acceler-
ations can be detrimental. Never let your engine over-
heat.
. . , CAUTION: Incorrect or lack of a break-in period
•
will result in engine horsepower loss.
O
NOTE: During the complete bread-in period, both
main jets must remain identical. Afterwards re-
calibrate as per specifications. Refer to main jet in
specifications section.

can
500
ml oil to

to 1.
To mix the gasoline and oil always use a separate clean
container. Never mix directly in your snowmobile tank.
For best results, acquire two containers, either plastic or
metal. Draw from one until empty then use the second
one .
•
WARNING: Gasoline is flammable and explosive
under certain conditions. Always perform proce-
dures in a well ventilated area. Do not smoke or allow
open flames or sparks in the vicinity. If gasoline fumes
are noticed while driving, the cause should be deter-
mined and corrected without delay. Never add fuel
while engine is running. Avoid skin contact with fuel at
below freezing temperatures.
