FOREWORD _

The operator manual and the Snow­mobile Safety Handbook have been pre­pared to acquaint the owner / operator
of a new snowmobile with the various
vehicle controls, maintenance and safe
operating instructions. Each is indis­pensable for the proper use of the pro­duct, and should be kept with the vehi-

cle at all times.
Should you have any questions per-

taining to the warranty and its applica­tion, please consult the

"Often

Asked
Questions" section of this manual, or
your selling dealer.

This manual uses the following sym-

bols.

•

WARNING: Identifies an instruc­tion which, if

not

followed, could

cause personal injury.

_ CAUTION: Denotes an instruction

Y which, if

not

followed, could se-

verely damage vehicle components.

O

NOTE: Indicates supplementary
information needed to fully com-

plete an instruction.
Although the mere reading of such in-

formation does not eliminate the haz-

ard, your understanding of the infor­mation will promote its correct use.

•

WARNING: The engines and

the

corresponding components iden-

tifiedinthis

manual should

not

be

uti-

lized on

productts)

other

than

those

mentioned on

the

cover page

of

formation.

SAFETY IN

MAINTENANCE _

Observe

the

following

precautions:

• Throttle mechanism should be check­ed for free movement before starting
engine.

• The snowmobile engine can be
stopped by activating the emergency

cut-out or tether switches or turning
off the key.

• Clean and check operation of the

headlight tail light and brake light.

• Engine should be running only when

belt guard and/or pulley guard is
secured in place.

• Never run the engine

without

drive
belt installed. Running an unloaded
engine can prove to be dangerous.

• Never run the engine when the track
is raised

off

the ground.

• It can be dangerous to run engine
with the hood removed.

• Gasoline is flammable and explosive
under certain conditions. Always
manipulate in a well ventilated area.
Do not smoke or allow open flames
or sparks in the vicinity. If gasoline
fumes are noticed while driving, the
cause should be determined and cor­rected

without

delay.

• Maintain your vehicle in top mechan­ical condition at all times.

• Your snowmobile is not designed to

be driven or operated on black top,
bare earth, or other abrasive sur-

faces. On such surfaces abnormal
and excessive wear of critical parts
is inevitable.

• Your snowmobile is not designed to
be operated on public streets, road

or highways. In most States and Pro­vinces, it is considered an illegal
operation.

• Installation of other than standard
equipment, including ski-spreaders,
bumpers, pack racks, etc., could
severely affect the stability and safe­ty of your vehicle. Avoid adding on
accessories that alter the basic ve­hicle configuration.

• Whenever the vehicle is parked out­doors, overnight or for a long peri­od, it is suggested to protect it against
the inclemency of the weather with
a snowmobile cover.

• Do not lubricate throttle and/or brake
cables and housings.

• Only perform procedures as detailed
in this manual. Unless otherwise

specified, engine should be turned
OFF for all lubrication and mainte­nance procedures.

• Liquid cooled model: Since engine

cooling is fully in effect only when
the vehicle is in motion and driven on
snow,

it is not recommended that
you allow the engine to idle for more
than brief periods and/or you drive
the vehicle on icy surface. Prolong­ed idling and/or continuous driving
on ice may cause engine damage.

• Liquid cooled model: When remov-

ing coolant thank cap, first place a
cloth over cap then turn cap to its

first step to release pressure. Never
drain or refill the cooling system
when engine is hot.

• Should removal of a nylon lock nut
be required when undergoing re-

pairs/disassembly, always replace by

new

ones. Tighten as specified in the

applicable Shop Manual.

BREAK-IN PERIOD _

Engine

With Bombardier-Rotax snowmobile
engines, a break-in period is required
before running the vehicle at full throt­tle. Engine's manufacturer recommen­dation is 10 to 15 operating hours. Dur­ing this period, maximum throttle
should not exceed

3/4,

however, brief
full acceleration and speed variations
contribute to a good break-in. Conti­nued wide open throttle accelerations,
prolonged cruising speeds, and lugging

are detrimental during the break-in

period.

_ CAUTION: Remove and clean

...

spark

plugs

after

engine

break-in.

Belt

A new drive belt requires a break-in pe-

riod of 15-25 km (10-15 miles).

O~Hour

Inspection

As with any precision piece of mechani­cal equipment, we suggest that after the
first 10 hours of operation or 30 days af­ter the purchase, whichever comesfirst,
your vehicle be checked by your dealer.
This inspection will give you the oppor­tunity to discuss the unanswered ques­tions you may have encountered during
the first hours of operation. Remember
that it iseasierto remedyat this time than
to allow the snowmobile to operate until
a possible failure occurs.

The 10 hour inspection is at the expense
of the vehicle owner.

General

Inspection

Check the electrical wiring and compo­nents, retighten loose connections.
Check for stripped wires or damaged in­sulation. Thoroughly inspect the vehicle

and tighten loose bolts, nuts and lin-

kage. Inspect skis and ski runners for
wear.

STORAGE _

It is during summer, or when a vehicle

is

not

in use for any length of time that

proper storage is a necessity. Storage
of the snowmobile during long period
of inactivity consists of checking and

replacing missing, broken or worn

parts, proper lubrication and treatment
to insure that parts do not become

rusted; cleaning items such as carbu-

retor of oil mixtures, to prevent gum

varnish formation within the carburetor;

and in general, preparing the vehicle so
that when the time comes to use the

snowmobile again it will be in top con-

dition.

•

WARNING: Only perform such

procedures as detailed in this
manual. It is recommended that dealer
assistance be periodically obtained on
other components/systems not

cov-

ered in this manual. Unless otherwise
specified. engine

should

beturned OFF.

Track

Inspect the track for wear, cuts, miss­ing track guides and broken rods. Make
any necessary replacement.

•

WARNING: Do not operate a

snowmobile with a cut, torn or

damage track.

Lift the rear of vehicle until track is clear
of the ground then support with a brace
or trestle. The snowmobile should be
stored in such a way that the track does

not stay in contact with the cement floor
or bare ground.
