4. Move the vehicle to be used for the
jump-start close enough to ensure
the jumper cables easily reach; then
set and lock the brakes, shut off all
electrical accessories, and turn the
ignition switch OFF.
NOTE: Make sure all switches on
the snowmobile to be jump-started
are turned OFF.
5. Disconnect all external accessories
such as cell phones, GPS units, and
radios on both vehicles.
CAUTION
Failure to disconnect electronic acces-
sories during jump-starting may cause
system damage due to power spikes.
6. Attach one clamp of the positive
(red) cable to the positive (+) termi-
nal (1) of the dead battery (C) being
careful not to touch any metal with
the other clamp; then attach the
other clamp of the positive (red)
cable to the positive (+) terminal (2)
of the good battery (B).
NOTE: Some jumper cables may be
the same color but the clamps or ends
will be color-coded red and black.
7. Attach one clamp of the negative
jumper cable (black) to the negative
(-) terminal (3) of the good battery
(B); then attach the other clamp of
the negative (black) jumper cable (4)
to an unpainted metal surface (A) on
the engine or frame well away from
the dead battery and fuel system
components.
Never make the final connection to a bat-
tery as a spark could ignite hydrogen
gases causing an explosion of the bat-
tery resulting in acid burns or blindness.
8. Stand well away from the dead bat-
tery and start the vehicle with the
good battery. Allow the vehicle to
run for several minutes applying
some charge to the dead battery.
9. Start the snowmobile with the dead
battery and allow it to run for several
minutes before disconnecting the
jumper cables.
10. Remove the jumper cables in oppo-
site order of hook-up (4, 3, 2, 1). Be
careful not to short cables against
bare metal.
NOTE: Have the battery and elec-
trical system checked prior to oper-
ating the snowmobile again.
Drive Clutch and Driven
Clutch
The drive clutch and driven clutch do not
require lubrication; therefore, no special
0744-527
maintenance is required by the snowmo-
bile owner except for periodical cleaning.
However, the drive clutch and driven
clutch should be disassembled, cleaned,
and inspected by an authorized Yamaha
Snowmobile dealer after every 4000 km
(2500 miles) or seasonally, whichever
occurs first. This service is at the discre-
tion and expense of the snowmobile
owner.
