Checking/Adding Brake Fluid
1. With the brake fluid reservoir in
a level position, check the fluid
level. The brake fluid level
must be just below the high
mark.
2. If the brake fluid level is below
the low mark, remove the reser-
voir cover and add Arctic Cat
approved brake fluid until the
fluid level is just below the high
mark. Install and secure the res-
ervoir cover. Do not allow
moisture to contaminate the
brake system.
! CAUTION
Brake fluid is highly corrosive.
Do not spill brake fluid on any
surface of the snowmobile.
! WARNING
Do not overfill the reservoir.
Overfilling the reservoir may
c a u s e t h e b r a k e s y s t e m t o
hydraulically lock. Use only Arc-
tic Cat approved brake fluid.
Never substitute or mix different
types or grades of brake fluid.
Brake loss can result. Brake loss
can result in severe injury or
even death.
MAINTENANCE
Changing Brake Fluid
The brake fluid must be changed on
a regular basis and whenever the
brake fluid has been overheated or
contaminated. The brake fluid
should be changed every 1000 miles
or at the end of the snowmobiling
season, whichever occurs first. Take
the snowmobile to an authorized
Arctic Cat Snowmobile dealer for
this service.
Checking Brake Lever Travel

lever travel using the following pro-
cedure:

vice.
