LOW OIL WARNING
LIGHT (Standard 2-
Stroke Models)
The Low Oil Warning Light is
designed to alert the snowmobile
operator when the oil in the oil injec-
tion reservoir gets below a prescribed
level; however, it is highly recom-
mended that a visual verification of
the oil level in the reservoir be done
prior to operating the snowmobile.
Once the Low Oil Warning Light illu-
minates during operation of the snow-
mobile, the operator must periodically
monitor the level of oil in the reservoir
and must fill the reservoir the next
time gasoline is added to the gas tank.
The "alert level" of the Low Oil Warn-
ing Light is approximately equal to 1
tankful of gasoline under normal oper-
ating conditions.
LOW OIL PRESSURE
WARNING LIGHT
(Bearcat W/T Non-
Turbo/Panther 660
Models)
The Low Oil Pressure Warning Light
indicates engine oil pressure, not the
oil level; however, if the oil level is
low, it may affect oil pressure. The
light should illuminate each time the
ignition switch is turned to RUN or
START, and it should go out when the
engine starts. If the light illuminates
while the engine is running, oil pres-
sure has been lost and the engine will
automatically shut off.
If oil pressure is lost, use the following
procedure:
1. Check the oil level.
NOTE: To ensure an accurate
reading, the snowmobile should
be on level ground.
GENERAL INFORMATION
2. If the oil level is below the lower
mark on the oil level stick, add
only enough recommended oil to
raise the level between the upper
and lower marks. DO NOT over-
fill the crankcase with oil.
3. After adding oil if the engine
starts, oil pressure should be nor-
mal.
If the engine does not start, take the
snowmobile to an authorized Arctic
Cat Snowmobile dealer.
COOLANT
TEMPERATURE
WARNING LIGHT
(Bearcat W/T Non-
Turbo/Panther 660
Models)
If the coolant temperature is at the
maximum running temperature, the
Coolant Temperature Warning Light
will flash a warning (alert). If the cool-
ant temperature is above the maxi-
mum running temperature, the light
will cease flashing and will remain
constantly illuminated.
! CAUTION
At this point, take precautionary
measures such as changing to
loose snow terrain, shutting the
engine off (allowing the engine to
cool down), and checking coolant
level. If unable to either determine
or remedy the problem, take the
snowmobile to an authorized Arc-
tic Cat Snowmobile dealer for ser-
vice.
