MAINTENANCE
OIL PUMP ADJUSTMENT
1. On some engines the oil pump is located under the intake
boots and you may have to remove the air box and may
need to unplug the CDI box and coils.
2. Verify carburetor synchronization see “THROTTLE
VALVE SYNCRONIZATION” on page 4.13.
3. Loosen the carburetor boot adapters and carefully move
them so that you can see and adjust the oil pump cable.
4. Verify that the oil pump alignment lines are aligned at the
point where the carburetor slides begin to raise from their
resting positions.
5. If they are not aligned make the necessary adjustments by
adjusting the oil pump cable. In small increments, loosen
the lock nut that is closest to the oil pump (A). and move
the mark that is on the oil pump arm by tightening or
loosening the adjustment nut (B) as needed to get the line
to the desired position (550 has alignment marginal at
wide open throttle).
6. Lock the lock nut (A).
7. Verify that the oil pump marks line up as outlined in step
4.
8. Re-install carburetors, air box and plug in the CDI and
coils if they were taken off in step 1.
9. Check idle to specification and adjust if needed.
NOTE: A mirror may aid in checking the oil line
markings.
HEADLIGHT ADJUSTMENT
The headlight can be adjusted for vertical aim using the
following procedure:
1. Place the snowmobile on a flat level surface with the
headlight approximately 25 feet (7.6m) from a wall.
2. With a tape measure, measure the center line of the
headlight on the vehicle. You may have to eye up the
center line.
3. Mark the headlight center line distance that you found on
step 4, and mark it on the wall that the machine is facing.
4. Apply and lock the parking brake.
5. Start the engine.
6. Set the headlight switch to HIGH beam.
7. With the rider in full gear and the sled at ride height
continue to step 8.
8. Observe the headlight aim. The most intense part if the
headlight beam should be aimed 2”(5.1cm) below the
mark placed on the wall in step 3.
NOTE: On Edge models you can adjust the
headlight by turning the adjusting knob that is
located on the under side of the hood, just below the
head lamp opening.
