! CAUTION
Do not over-fill the gear case. If
the gear case is over-filled with
fluid, damage to the gear case
could occur.
! CAUTION
The correct lubricant to use in
the gear case is Arctic Cat ACT
Drive Fluid. Any substitute may
cause serious damage to the
drive system.
It is very important that the gear case
fluid be changed after each season of
use. Arctic Cat recommends that the
fluid be changed prior to off-season
storage.
To change the gear case lubricant,
use the following procedure:
1. Place a drain pan beneath the
gear case; then from the back-
side of the case, remove the
drain/fill plug.
LUBRICATION

NOTE: It is critical that the
snowmobile is on a level surface
to ensure the fluid drains properly
and completely.
2. Tip the snowmobile onto its left
side and place a piece of card-
board underneath to protect the
finish on the hood and belly
pan.

NOTE: It is recommended that
the gas tank be nearly empty
(less than 1/4 full) when tipping
the snowmobile.
3. Secure the snowmobile in this
position.
! CAUTION
It is critical that all of the old
fluid be drained from the gear
case prior to filling with new
fluid.
4. Pour the exact amount (see
specification sheet) of Arctic
Cat ACT Drive Fluid into the
drain/fill hole; then install the
plug. Tighten securely.
! CAUTION
Do Not add more or less than
the recommended amount of
drive fluid to the gear case or
damage to the gear case will
occur.
5. Tip the snowmobile back to the
upright position.

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
