• Do not operate vehicle near snow
making equipment.
• Engine should be running only when
belt guard and

cured in place.

under certain conditions. Always ma-
nipulate in a well ventilated area. Do

• Maintain your vehicle in top mechan-
ical condition at all times.
• Your snowmobile is not designed to
be driven or operated on black top,
bare earth, ice, hard pack or other
abrasive surfaces. On such surfaces
abnormal and excessive wear of cri-
tical parts is inevitable.

be operated on pu bfic streets, road
or highways. In most States and Prov-
inces, it is considered an illegal oper-
ation.

bumpers, pack racks, etc., could se-
verely affect the stability and safety
of your vehicle. Avoid adding on ac-
cessories that alter the basic vehicle
configuration.
• The snowmobile engine can be stop-
ped by activating the emergency cut-
out switch, tether switch or by turn-
ing off the key.
• Whenever the vehicle is parked out-
doors, overnight or for a long period,
it is suggested to protect it against
the inclemency of the weather with
a snowmobile cover.

I
or brake
cables and housings.
• Only perform procedures as detailed
in this manual. Unless otherwise spec-
ified, engine should be turned OFF
for all lubrication and maintenance
procedures.
• Clean and check operation of the
headlight, taillight and brake light.

driver only. No provisions have been
made for a passenger.
