Lubrication

Chain Case

Checking Lubricant Level

NOTE: The snowmobile must be
on a level surface for this procedure.
1. Check the lubricant level in the
chain case by using the sight glass.

NOTE: The correct level is when
the lubricant is at least halfway up in
the sight glass.

NOTE: Adding lubricant can be
done by the snowmobile owner if
qualified to do so. If the owner does
not feel qualified, take the snowmo-
bile to an authorized Yamaha Snow-
mobile dealer for this service. This
service is at the discretion and
expense of the snowmobile owner
2. If the lubricant level is low, remove
the right-side access panel.
3. Remove the three screws securing
the shift actuator to the chain case,
disconnect the actuator wiring har-
ness, and remove the actuator w/
extension, detent, and spring; then
add appropriate amount of Yamaha
Synthetic Chain Lube through the
shift actuator opening.

NOTE: Be sure to add a small
amount of white lithium grease to
the O-rings of the new actuator
extension and the shift actuator
detent block before installing.
4. Install the actuator extension and
gently rotate counterclockwise to
make sure the shift fork is in the for-
ward position. When the shift fork is
in the forward position, make sure
the notch in the extension is directed
downward.
5. Install spring into the bottom of shift
actuator detent block and install into
the chain case cover. The notch in
the extension should be lined up
with the notch in the block.

ing. This is only to aid in the instal-
lation of the actuator.
