Start the Engine and Check

starting your machine.

proper operation. Push down to stop the engine. Pull up to release
and start the engine.

tether from the switch to ensure the engine stops immediately.
Make sure the tether strap is in good condition.
n Lighting: Check the headlight (high and low beam), taillight, and
brake light for normal operation.
n Mirror Adjustment: If equipped, adjust your mirrors so they can
be used to their full advantage.
n Check Surroundings to Verify Clear Operating Area: Make
sure you have a clear area all around your snowmobile, including
an area clear of bystanders. There’s always the possibility of some
sideways vehicle movement, of applying a little more throttle than
intended, or of debris being thrown by the track. If the
surrounding area is clear you before you start, you can devote your
full attention to operating the snowmobile.
n Ignition Switch: Make sure
the engine stops when the
ignition switch is turned to OFF.
