MAINTENANCE
Steering System
n Ski Skags
See your dealer's studding chart for recommended skags. If you install
longer or more aggressive carbide skags than the original equipment, it
may also be necessary to add track studs to maintain proper vehicle con-
trol while turning on hard-packed snow or ice.
WARNING! Worn skis and/or skags will adversely affect handling. Loss of
vehicle control may result, causing serious injury or death. Replace skags as
recommended.
Check skags before each use of the snowmobile to ensure positive steer-
ing characteristics. Skags must be replaced when worn to half their orig-
inal diameter. Carbide skags must be replaced if any abnormal wear or
chipping is found.
Skag Replacement
1. Raise and support the front of the machine so the skis are approxi-
mately 6I (15.2 cm) from the ground.
2. Remove the attaching hardware and pry the skag downward.
3. Remove the rear end of the skag.
4. Remove the front end of the skag.
5. Reverse the steps to install a skag.
