1. Remove excess ice and snow buildup
from the track, track drive sprockets,
and the inside of the skid frame.
2. Position the tips of the skis against a
wall; then using a shielded safety
stand, raise the rear of the snowmo-
bile off the floor making sure the
track is free to rotate.
! WARNING
The tips of the skis must be posi-
tioned against a wall or similar
object.
! WARNING
DO NOT stand behind the snowmo-
bile or near the rotating track. NEVER
run the track at high speed when the
track is suspended.
3. Start the engine and accelerate
slightly. Use only enough throttle to
turn the track several revolutions.
SHUT ENGINE OFF.

NOTE: Allow the track to coast to a
stop. DO NOT apply the brake
because it could produce an inaccu-
rate alignment condition.
4. When the track stops rotating, check
the relationship of the rear idler
wheels and the inner track drive lugs.
If the rear idler wheels are centered
between the inner track drive lugs, no
adjustment is necessary.

NOTE: On XF HC models, use the
allen wrench in the tool kit to adjust
the allen-head screw to tighten or
loosen the track.
2. Check track alignment and continue

obtained.

NOTE: Make sure correct track
tension is maintained after adjust-
ing track alignment.
