PRE-RIDE INSPECTIONS
Before Starting the Engine
n Steering System
WARNING! Ice and snow build-up may interfere with the steering of your
machine, resulting in serious injury or death. Keep the underhood area free of
snow and ice.
Before driving, manually turn the skis to the left and right to be sure ice
and snow are not interfering with full left and right steering. If difficulty
is encountered, remove ice and snow build-up that may be obstructing
the steering linkage. Make sure all greasable components are properly
lubricated.
n Track
WARNING! Always inspect the track for damage before using the vehicle.
Operating the snowmobile with a damaged track increases the possibility of
track failure, which could cause loss of control resulting in serious injury or
death.
Use of traction products such as studs increases the possibility of track
damage and/or failure. Driving at high speeds for extended periods of
time with inadequate lubrication could severely damage track rods,
break track edges, and cause other track damage. Examples of inade-
quate lubrication would include frozen bodies of water without snow
cover, icy trails, and no-snow conditions.
Track damage or failure caused by operation on ice or under poor lubri-
cation conditions voids the track warranty.
