The following chart lists methods for stopping the snowmobile in the
event of an emergency. See page 62 for more information about the
engine stop switch and throttle safety switch.
WARNING! Excessive or repetitive use of brakes for high speed stops will
cause an overheated brake system. This overheated condition could cause
sudden loss of brakes and/or fire, resulting in serious injury or death. When
traveling on long downhill stretches, pump the brakes. Riding the brakes may
cause the brake system to overheat and result in brake failure.
