FOREWORD
This Arctic Cat Service Manual contains service, maintenance, and troubleshooting information for certain 2010
Arctic Cat ATV models (see cover). The complete manual is designed to aid service personnel in service-oriented
applications.
Arctic Cat offers additional publications (when they become available) to aid in servicing other ATV models. To
service models not included in this manual, please refer to the following publications:
2010 Y-12+ Service Manual

2010 700 Diesel Service Manual
This manual is divided into sections. Each section covers a specific ATV component or system and, in addition to
the standard service procedures, includes disassembling, inspecting, and assembling instructions. When using this
manual as a guide, the technician should use discretion as to how much disassembly is needed to correct any given
condition.
The service technician should become familiar with the operation and construction of each component or system
by carefully studying the complete manual. This manual will assist the service technician in becoming more aware
of and efficient with servicing procedures. Such efficiency not only helps build consumer confidence but also saves
time and labor.
All Arctic Cat ATV publications and decals display the words Warning, Caution, Note, and At This Point to
emphasize important information. The symbol ! WARNING identifies personal safety-related information.
Be sure to follow the directive because it deals with the possibility of severe personal injury or even death. A
CAUTION identifies unsafe practices which may result in ATV-related damage. Follow the directive because it
deals with the possibility of damaging part or parts of the ATV. The symbol  NOTE: identifies supplementary
information worthy of particular attention. The symbol
