Drive Belt Break-In
Procedure
New drive belts require a break-in period of approximately
25 miles. During this period, drive the vehicle for 25 miles
at 3/4 throttle or less while varying throttle position (but
not exceeding 40 mph). By varying throttle position, the
exposed cord on the side of a new belt will be conditioned
allowing the drive belt to gain its optimum flexibility and
will extend drive belt life.

RECOMMENDED GASOLINE
The recommended gasoline to use is 87 (Wildcat/Wildcat
4) or 91 (X/4X) minimum octane regular unleaded. In
many areas, oxygenates are added to the gasoline. Oxy-
genated gasolines containing up to 10% ethanol or 5%
methane are acceptable gasolines.
When using ethanol blended gasoline, it is not necessary to
add a gasoline antifreeze since ethanol will prevent the
accumulation of moisture in the fuel system.
Do not use white gas. Only Arctic Cat approved gaso-
line additives should be used.
RECOMMENDED ENGINE/
TRANSMISSION OIL
On the Wildcat/Wildcat 4, any oil used in place of the
recommended oil could cause serious engine damage.
Do not use oils which contain graphite or molybdenum
additives. These oils can adversely affect clutch opera-
tion. Also, not recommended are racing, vegetable, non-
detergent, and castor-based oils.
The recommended oil to use is Arctic Cat ACX All
Weather synthetic engine oil, which has been specifically
formulated for use in this Arctic Cat engine. Although
Arctic Cat ACX All Weather synthetic engine oil is the
only oil recommended for use in this engine, use of any
API certified SM 0W-40 oil is acceptable.
RECOMMENDED FRONT
DIFFERENTIAL/REAR DRIVE
LUBRICANT
The recommended lubricant is Arctic Cat Gear Lube or an
equivalent gear lube which is SAE approved 80W-90 hypoid.
This lubricant meets all of the lubrication requirements of the
Arctic Cat vehicle front differential and rear drive.
Any lubricant used in place of the recommended lubri-
cant could cause serious front differential/rear drive
damage.
