Engine/Transmission - Arctic Cat Altera 300 Service Manual

Engine/Transmission

This section has been organized into sub-sections which
show a progression for the complete servicing of the Arc-
tic Cat ATV engine/transmission.
To service the center crankcase halves, the engine/trans-
mission must be removed from the frame.
To service top-side, left-side, and right-side components,
the engine/transmission does not have to be removed
from the frame.
NOTE: Arctic Cat recommends the use of new gas-

kets, lock nuts, and seals and lubricating all internal
components when servicing the engine/transmission.
NOTE: A new ATV and an overhauled ATV engine

require a "break-in" period. The first 10 hours (or
200 miles) are most critical to the life of this ATV.
Proper operation during this break-in period will
help assure maximum life and performance from the
ATV. Instruct the customer to follow the proper
break-in procedure as described in the Operators
Manual.
