Avoid wearing loose clothing or long scarves, which can become entangled in
moving parts and cause serious injury. Always wear an approved helmet and
eye protection.

SURVIVAL PREPARATION

equipment may include, but is not limited to: extra clothing, a sleeping bag, a
flashlight, food and water, a signaling mirror, a means of building a fire, and a
two-way radio or cellular telephone.

purchase and carry the following items on your snowmobile as well:
• Spare Drive Belt
• Extra Set of Spark Plugs
