Routine maintenance is necessary for
all mechanized products, and the snow-
mobile is no exception. A weekly vehi-
cle inspection contributes to the life
span of the snowmobile as well as re-
tains safe and dependable operation. It
is recommended that the steering sys-
tem and suspension be lubricated month-
ly or every 40 hours of operation. If the
vehicle is operated in wet snow or in
severe conditions these items should be
lubricated more frequently.
Penetrating lubricant is recommended
on ball joints and moving parts. May be
used either:
- chain lube from Bardahl (BCS 362
dry)
- WD-40
