Trailers or sleds towed behind a snowmo-

obtain the lowest possible center of grav-
ity. Use a rigid tow bar when pulling a
tow sled behind your snowmobile. When

tow sled/ use moderate speed and avoid
rough terrain for their safety. Also, have
all passengers get out of a towed vehi-
cle and walk across all roads.

BREAK-IN PERIOD _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Engine
This Bombardier-Rotax snowmobile
engine has a critical break-in period
requirement before running the vehicle
at full throttle. Engine manufacturer
strongly recommends 10 to 15 operat-
ing hours. Maximum throttle should not
exceed
3/4,
however/ brief full accelera-
tion and speed variations contribute to
a good break-in. Continued wide open
throttle accelerations, prolonged cruis-
ing speeds, and engine overheating are
detrimental during the break-in period.
