TROUBLESHOOTING
Drive Belt Wear/Burn
Cause Solution
Driving at low RPM Drive at higher RPM. Gear the machine down. Check belt
deflection.
Insufficient warm-up Warm the engine at least five minutes. Take the drive belt
off the machine in extremely cold weather and warm it
up. Break machine loose from the snow.
Towing at low RPM Do not tow in deep snow. Use fast, aggressive throttle to
engage clutch.
Riding with high RPM
and slow speed (8000
RPM/10 MPH)
Lower the gear ratio. Reduce RPM. Avoid riding in high
ambient temperatures. Check for snow ingestion.
Ice and snow build-up
between track and tunnel
Warm the engine at least five minutes. Take the drive belt
off the machine in extremely cold weather and warm it
up. Break machine loose from the snow.
Poor engine performance Check for fouled plugs or water, ice, or dirt in the gas tank
or fuel line.
Loading machines onto
trailers
Skis may gouge into trailers and prevent the drivetrain
from spinning properly. Use enough speed to drive the
machine completely onto the trailer. Push and pull it to
finish loading if necessary.
Clutch malfunction Inspect clutch components. See your dealer.
Slow, easy clutch engage-
ment
Use fast, aggressive throttle to engage clutch.
Wrong or missing belt Always use the recommended belt.
Improper break-in Always break in a new belt and/or clutch by avoiding
aggressive or high speed operation during the break-in
period.
