WARNING
EWS00481
A broken track, track fittings or debris
thrown by the drive track could be danger-
ous to an operator or bystanders. Observe
the following precautions:
● Do not allow anyone to stand behind the
snowmobile when the engine is running.
● When the rear of the snowmobile is
raised to allow the drive track to spin, a
suitable stand must be used to support
the rear of the snowmobile. Never allow
anyone to hold the rear of the snowmo-
bile off the ground to allow the drive
track to spin. Never allow anyone near a
rotating drive track.
● Inspect the drive track condition fre-
quently. Replace any damaged slide
metal. Replace the drive track if it is
damaged to the depth where fabric rein-
forcement material is visible or support
rods are broken. Otherwise, track dam-
age or failure could result in loss of
braking ability and snowmobile control,
which could cause an accident.
