SKI WEAR BAR

The ski wear bar is a replaceable bar
attached to the underside of the ski.
The purpose of the wear bar is to assist
in turning the snowmobile, to minimize
ski wear, and to maintain good steering
control. If the snowmobile is operated
primarily in deep snow, ski wear bar
wear will be minimal; however, if the
snowmobile is operated on terrain
where the snow cover is minimal, the
ski wear bar will wear faster. To main-
tain positive steering characteristics,
Arctic Cat recommends that the ski
wear bars be checked once a week and
replaced if worn to 1/2 of original
diameter. Ski wear bars are available
from an authorized Arctic Cat Snow-
mobile dealer.
! WARNING
Operating the snowmobile with
excessively worn ski wear bars
may result in a loss of steering
control.

wear bar to the ski.
4. Pry the rear of the wear bar down
until both of the wear bar studs are
clear of the ski; then slide the wear
bar rearward until the front of the
wear bar is free from the ski.
