SAFETY Operator Safety Inadequate Snow Conditions Since snow provides the only lubrication for the power slide suspension and, on liquid cooled models, cooling for the engine, adequate snow cover is a requirement for operation of your snowmobile. WARNING! Inadequate cooling and lubrication will lead to overheating of the slide rail and track, causing premature wear, damage and failure, which can result in serious injury. Reduce speeds and frequently drive into fresh snow to allow adequate cooling and polishing of the slide rail and track surfaces. Do not drive for prolonged periods on blacktop, gravel, or ice. Operating in Deep Snow If the snowmobile becomes stuck in snow, clear the running board area of snow, then step down the snow in front of the snowmobile so that when the throttle is opened, the snowmobile will be able to climb up and over the snow. 20

Inadequate Snow Conditions
Since snow provides the only lubrication for the power slide suspension
and, on liquid cooled models, cooling for the engine, adequate snow
cover is a requirement for operation of your snowmobile.
WARNING!
Inadequate cooling and lubrication will lead to overheating of the
slide rail and track, causing premature wear, damage and failure, which can
result in serious injury. Reduce speeds and frequently drive into fresh snow to
allow adequate cooling and polishing of the slide rail and track surfaces. Do not
drive for prolonged periods on blacktop, gravel, or ice.
Operating in Deep Snow
If the snowmobile becomes stuck in snow, clear the running board area
of snow, then step down the snow in front of the snowmobile so that
when the throttle is opened, the snowmobile will be able to climb up and
over the snow.
