LUBRICATION

Frequency
Routine maintenance is necessary for all
mechanized products, and the snowmo-
bile is no exception. A weekly vehicle in-
spection contributes to the life span of
the snowmobile as well as retains safe
and dependable operation. It is recom-
mended that the steering system and sus-
pension be lubricated monthly or every
40 hours of operation. If the vehicle is
operated in wet snow or in severe con-
ditions these items should be lubricated
more frequently.
