MAINTENANCE Track Maintenance Track Inspection WARNING! Broken track rods can cause a rotating track to come off the snowmobile, which could cause serious injury or death. Never operate with a damaged track. Never rotate a damaged track under power. 1. Using a hoist, safely lift and support the rear of the snowmobile off the ground. 2. Rotate the track by hand to check for damage. 3. Carefully examine the track along the entire length of each rod. Bend the track to check for breakage. 4. Replace the track if any rod damage is found. Track Lubrication Rod The slide rail needs snow for lubrication. Excessive wear indicates insufficient lubrication. A new rail slide can cause faster heat build-up in limited lubrication, resulting in excessive wear. WARNING! Operating with insufficient lubrication between the rail slide and track guide clips can cause track failure, loss of vehicle control and loss of braking ability, which can result in serious injury or death. Avoid operating for extended periods on ice and other surfaces that have little or no snow for lubrication. If excessive rail slide wear occurs due to poor snow conditions, additional wheel kits are available. See your dealer for more information. Track damage or failure caused by operation on ice or under other poor lubrication conditions will void the track warranty. 105
