Track Inspection
WARNING
Broken track rods are a serious safety hazard. They can cause a
rotating track to come off the machine, which could cause serious
injury or death. Never operate with a damaged track. Never
rotate a damaged track under power.
1. Using a hoist, safely lift and
support the rear of the snowmobile
off the ground.
2. Rotate the track by hand to check
for damage.
3. Carefully examine the track along
the entire length of each rod (L).
Bend the track to check for
breakage.
4. Replace the track if any rod
damage is found.
Track Lubrication
WARNING
Operating with insufficient lubrication between the rail slide and
track guide clips can cause track failure, loss of vehicle control
and loss of braking ability, which can result in serious injury or
death.
Avoid operating for extended periods on ice and other surfaces
that have little or no snow for lubrication.
The slide rail requires adequate snow cover for sufficient lubrication.
Excessive wear indicates insufficient lubrication. A new rail slide can
cause faster heat build-up in limited lubrication, resulting in excessive
wear.
NOTE: T rack damage or failure caused by operation on ice or under
other poor lubrication conditions will void the track warranty.
CAUTION
High speed use on hardpacked surfaces is not recommended for
models equipped with a deep lug track. Track lug damage may
occur. Keep high speed use to a minimum, including frequent
slow-speed intervals for track cooling.
