This section is applicable to all snowmobile models that are either
equipped with a:
– Factory installed track approved by BRP for special studs
installation.
– Factory pre-studded track.
or that can received one of these tracks.
Always refer to your authorized BRP snowmobile dealer to learn more
on traction enhancing products and applicability on your snowmobile.
Using traction enhancing products such as, adjustable or more ag-
gressive ski carbide runners and / or track studs on your snowmobile
will change its behavior, particularly in terms of maneuverability, accel-
eration, and braking.
Using traction enhancing products gives a better grip on hard packed
snow and ice, but has no noticeable effect in deep snow. For this rea-
son, driving a snowmobile equipped with traction enhancing products
requires a certain adaptation period. If your snowmobile is equipped
with traction enhancing products, be sure to take plenty of time to get
used to the way it handles when turning, accelerating, and braking.
The use of track studs can increase the load and the stress on certain
snowmobile components, as well as the vibration level. This can
cause premature wear on parts such as belt, brake linings, bearings,
chain, chain sprockets, and shorten track life.
