CAUTION: @ Returning to service after storage When returning your snowmobile to service, reinstall the V-belt and adjust the drive track, and install the battery. Remove the spark plugs and clean or replace them if necessary. Perform all other pre-operation and seasonal maintenance checks listed in the periodic maintenance chart. For peak performance, it is recommended that you have your snowmobile checked and tuned by a Yamaha dealer. They have the experience and training to help you get the maximum performance and use of your Yamaha snowmobile. G G G Always keep the battery charged. Storing a discharged battery can cause permanent battery damage. To charge a sealed-type (MF) battery, a special (constant-voltage) battery charger is required. Using a conventional battery charger will damage the battery. If you do not have access to a sealed-type (MF) battery charger, have a Yamaha dealer charge your battery. Do not charge the battery quickly. Charge the battery for 10 hours at 1.8 amperes. @ 7. Drive track Loosen the drive track, and block up the chassis so that the track is suspended above the ground. 8. V-belt Remove the V-belt and store separately. 9. Storage Store the snowmobile in a dry, well-ventilated place out of direct sunlight. Put a fabric cover over the snowmobile, preferably one that is designed for it. Do not use a plastic or vinyl cover-condensation could be trapped underneath which could increase the chances of rusting. 10-2
