MAINTENANCE

SKI SKAGS

WARNING
Worn skis and/or skags will adversely affect handling. Loss of vehicle control
may result, causing serious injury or death. See your dealer's studding chart
for recommended skags.
Check skags before each use of the snow bike to ensure positive steering
characteristics. Skags must be replaced when worn to half their original
diameter.
TIP
Carbide skags must be replaced if any abnormal wear or chipping is found.

SKAG REPLACEMENT

1. Raise and support the front of the snow bike so the ski is approximately 6
inches (15.2 cm) from the ground.
2. Remove the attaching nuts and pry the skag downward.
3. Remove the front end of the skag.
4. Remove the rear end of the skag.
5. Reverse the steps to install a skag.
SPINDLE MAINTENANCE
The spindle does not require any maintenance. It is designed to bend if it comes
in contact with a rock or stump during operation. Timbersled recommends
thoroughly inspecting the assembly for bends or cracks before you ride.
FALL TUNE-UP
For maximum performance, your Timbersled dealer can perform a fall service
tune-up. Their experienced and trained service technicians will keep your snow
bike in peak operating condition.
