OPERATION
Daily Storage
At the end of each ride, park the
snowmobile on a level surface and
support it at the rear with an appropriate
track stand. The t rack should be
suspended approximately 4″ (10 cm) off
the ground. Cover the machine with an
appropriate cover.
Towing
WARNING
Objects towed with a rope have no braking power and can easily collide
with the rear of the snowmobile or other objects, resulting in serious injury
or death. DO NOT tow toboggans, sleds, saucers, or any type of vehicle
with a rope. Only a stiff metal pole connecting the towed object and the
tow hitch on the snowmobile should be used. If passengers are to be
towed on a toboggan or sled, make sure the pole is at least four feet (1.2
meters) long to prevent any possibility of contact between the
snowmobile’s track and a person riding in the towed object.
Braking distances increase when towing loads. Slow down to maintain
control of the snowmobile.
If the snowmobile becomes inoperable and must be towed, and i f it
isn’t possible to use a rigid tow bar, attach the tow rope to the ski
spindles (not to the ski loops) to prevent damage to the steering
components. Remove the drive belt before towing, and have a rider on
the towed snowmobile to operate the brake and steering when
necessary.
CAUTION
Towing a disabled snowmobile with the drive belt in place can result in
serious damage to the engine and drive system. Always remove the
drive belt from a disabled snowmobile before towing.
