Track Maintenance

Track Alignment

Periodically check that the track is centered and running evenly on the

slide rails. Misalignment will cause excessive wear to the track and slide

rail.

1. Safely support the rear of the snowmobile with the track off the

ground.

2. Start the engine and apply a small amount of throttle until the track

turns slowly at least five complete revolutions. Stop the engine and

let the track come to a stop (do not apply brakes).

3. Inspect track alignment by

looking through the track

window to make sure the

rails are evenly spaced on

each side. If the track runs

to the left, loosen the idler

shaft bolts, then loosen the

left locknut and tighten the

left adjusting bolt. If the

track runs to the right,

loosen the idler shaft bolts,

then loosen the right

locknut and tighten the

right adjusting bolt.

4. After adjustments are

complete, tighten the

locknuts and torque idler

shaft bolts to 35 ft. lbs.

(47.5 Nm).

5. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to verify proper alignment.
