Know Your Snowmobile
Gas Cap
An adult will take the gas cap off to put gas in your snowmobile. Never
take the gas cap off. Always make sure it's tightly closed.
Recoil Starter Handle
Pull the recoil starter handle to start your snowmobile. An adult will
help you start it the first time.
Choke Knob
You may need to use the choke to help start your snowmobile if the
engine is cold. Read more about it on page 45.
Hood Hold-Down Strap
Two straps hold down the hood of your snowmobile. Always make sure
both hood straps are securely latched before you start the engine.
Tether Strap/Switch
Always attach the tether
strap to your body and to
the switch on your snow-
mobile every time you
drive. If you fall off your
snowmobile, the tether
strap will pull away from
the switch and the engine
will stop.
When you attach the strap
to your body, you can clip
it to a loop on your cloth-
ing, or you can wrap the
strap around your right
wrist and attach the clip to
the strap.
Always have an adult put gas in your snowmobile. Never try to do it
yourself.
Never ride without the tether strap attached to your body and to your
snowmobile. Be careful not to let the cord get tangled around the han-
dlebars or any part of your body.
