serious personal injury if the track should being to move. Never
inspect the track with the engine running
Using a hoist or jackstand,
safely lift and support the
rear of the snowmobile off
the ground. Rotate the track
by hand to check for any
possible damage.
To inspect track rods,
carefully examine the track
along the entire length of
each rod, bending the track
and inspecting for breakage.
The three most common
places where breakage
occurs are shown in the
illustration.
Check the track clips and tighten if loose. If any rod damage is found,
the track should be replaced.

Serious personal injury or death may occur if the snowmobile is
operated with a damaged track. Broken track rods are a serious
hazard, since they can cause a rotating track to come off the
machine. Never operate the snowmobile or rotate under power a
track that's torn or damaged.
NOTE: The 120 snowmobile track has molded in track clips. It is
common for a thin layer of rubber to detach from clip area
and peel off during initial use.
