NOTE:
Emergency
materials
should be wrapped in foam or
similar material. This will prevent pos-
sible damage to breakable items when
travelling over rough or bumpy terrain.

screw fuel tank cap and withdraw dip-
stick to check fuel level. On Elan mod-
els, the tank is translucent and fuel
level can be checked by opening cab
and glancing at tank .

WARNING:
Never use a lite
match or open flame to check
fuel level.
With Bombardier-Rotax snowmobile
engines, a break-in period is required
before running
the vehicle at full
throttle.
Engine's manufacturer re-
commendation is 10 to 15 operating
hours. During this period, a richer mix-
ture is needed (i.e.
40
parts of gas for
1 part of 50 / 1 Bombardier oil). Maxi-
mum throttle should not exceed
%,
however, brief full acceleration and
speed variations contribute to a good
break-in. Continued wide open throttle
accelerations, prolonged cruising
speeds, and luggin are detrimental
during the break-in period.
As with any precision piece of mechan-
ical equipment, we suggest that after
the first 10 hours of operation or 30
days after the purchase, whichever
comes first,
that
your vehicle be
checke.d by your dealer. This inspec-
tion will give you the opportunity to
discuss the unanswered questions you
may have encountered during the first
hours of operation. Remember that it
is easier to remedy at this time than to
allow the snowmobile to operate until
a possible failure occurs.
The 10 hours inspection is at the ex-
pense of the vehicle owner.
