Operator Safety
Driving on Slippery Su rfaces
Excessive shifting of operator body weight when turning on
hard-packed snow or ice may lead to loss of vehicle control and result
in serious injury or death. Slow down to maintain control under these
conditions.
It’s dangerous to drive on i ce or other slippery surfaces. If it’s
unavoidable, use extreme caution and operate at speeds no faster than a
walk. Never attempt an abrupt change of direction. The chance of
“spin-out” increases under these conditions.
Intake Silencer
Do not operate the engine with the intake silencer or filter removed.
Damage to the engine may occur if the intake silencer or filter are
removed.
Clutches
Do not attempt to service the clutches.
All clutch service must be performed by your dealer. The clutch is a
complex m echanism that rotates at high speeds. Each clutch is
dynamically balanced before installation. Any tampering may disrupt
this precision balancing and create an unstable condition.
Cold Weath er Drive-Away
Whenever your snowmobile has been parked for a length of time,
especially overnight, a lways make sure the skis an d track are loosened
from ice and snow before attempting to drive. Apply the throttle with
enough authority to put the machine into motion, but always operate
within safety limits and, on 2-Up machines, with respect for a
passenger. See Starting a Cold Engine on page 53.
Driving on ice or hard-packed snow reduces steering and braking
control, which may result in s erious injury or death. Slow down
and use caution.
