Lubrication; Standard Chain Case - Arctic Cat ZR 900 Series 2006 Operator's Manual

STANDARD CHAIN CASE (Every
40 Operating Hours)
The recommended amount of trans-
mission lube in the chain case is 236
ml (8 fl oz) for models without
reverse and 354 ml (12 fl oz) for
models with reverse. Adding more
transmission lube to the chain case
(above the recommended amount)
may result in leakage. To check the
transmission lube level, use the fol-
lowing procedure:
1. With the snowmobile level,
shut engine off and wait for all
moving parts to stop; then open
the hood.
2. Remove the oil level stick from
the chain case cover. Wipe the
oil level stick clean; then thread
the oil level stick completely
back into the chain case (with-
out reverse) or install the oil
level stick completely back into
the chain case (with reverse).
Remove the oil level stick again
and check the lubricant level.

3. If the lubricant level is above
t h e A D D m a r k ( w i t h o u t
reverse) or above the LOW
mark (with reverse), the lubri-
cant level is satisfactory. If the
lubricant level is at or below the
mark, proceed to step 4.
4. If oil is low, remove the filler
plug and add transmission lube
through the filler plug hole.
When the oil level is correct,
install both the filler plug and
the oil level stick.

NOTE: If excessive oil deposits
are noticed, take the snowmobile
to an authorized Arctic Cat Snow-
mobile dealer for service. If not
under warranty, this service is at
the discretion and expense of the
snowmobile owner
