driven through water, the V-belt
cover must be drained of any water.

2. Remove the drain bolt from the cover
and allow the water to drain out.
3. Shift the range lever to the neutral
position; then start the engine.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to clear water with the
vehicle in park. The transmission is
locked and belt or clutch damage could
occur.

several times to "blow out" any
water; then stop the engine.

should be inspected every 500 miles
and the belt replaced (if necessary).

tions chart for proper tire inflation
pressure, and always maintain proper
tire inflation pressure.
Tire Tread Condition
PR882A
The use of worn-out tires on this vehicle
is very dangerous. A tire is considered to
be worn out when the depth of the tread
is less than 3 mm (1/8 in.). Be sure to
replace the tires before reaching this min-
imum specification.
The use of worn-out tires is danger-
ous and can increase the risk of an
accident.
Tire Replacement
This vehicle has low-pressure tubeless tires.
Air is sealed by the contact surfaces of the
inner wheel rim and the tire bead. If either
the inner wheel rim or tire bead is damaged,
air may leak. Be extremely careful not to
damage these areas when replacing tires.
It is very important to use the proper
tools when repairing or replacing tires to
prevent damage to the tire bead or wheel
rims. If proper tools and related items are
not available, have this maintenance per-
formed by an authorized Arctic Cat
dealer or a qualified tire repair station.
When breaking the tire bead loose
from the wheel, be extremely careful
not to damage the inner wheel sur-
face or the tire bead.
