# RIDING YOUR SNOWMOBILE  # GETTING TO KNOW YOUR SNOWMOBILE  A snowmobile is a rider active vehicle,and your riding position and your balance are the two basic factors of maneuvering your snowmobile.  Riding your snowmobile requires skills acquired through practice over a period of time.Take the time to learn the basic techniques well before attempting more difficult maneuvers.  Riding your new snowmobile can be a very enjoyable activity, providing you with hours of pleasure. But it is essential to familiarize yourself with the operation of the snowmobile to achieve the skill necessary to enjoy riding safely.Before you begin to ride,be sureyou have read this Owner's Manual completely and understand the operation of the controls.  Pay particular attention to the safety information on page  $3–1\sim3–3$  Pleaseread all warning and caution labels on your snowmobile.Also read the Snowmobile r's Safety Handbook originally supplied with your machine.  # LEARNING TO RIDE YOUR SNOWMOBILE  Before you ride,always perform the pre-operation checks listed on page  $8–1\sim8–3$  The short time spent checking the condition of the machine will be rewarded with added safety and a more reliable snowmobile.Always wear the proper clothing for both warmth and to help protect you from injury if an accident occurs.  Become familiar with this snowmobile at slow speeds even if you are an experienced operator.Donot attempt to operate at maximum performance until you are totally familiar with themachine's handling and performance characteristics.  The beginning operator should select a large,flat area to become familiar with the snowmobile.Make sure that this areais freeof obstacles and other traffic.You should practice control of the throttle and brake,and master turning techniques in this area before trying more difficult terrain.
Set the parking brake and follow the instructions on page  $7–1\sim7–2$  tostart theengine.Once it has warmed up,you are ready to begin riding your Snowmobile.  # TO START OUT AND ACCELERATE  1. With the engine idling, release theparking brake 2.Apply the throttle slowly and smoothly.The centrifugal clutch will engage and you will start to accelerate.  # WARNING  The operator should always keep both hands on the handlebars.Never put your feet outside the running boards. Avoid higher speeds until you have become thoroughly familiar with your Snowmobile and all of its controls.  # BRAKING  When slowing down or stopping,release the throttle and apply the brake gently-not suddenly.  # WARNING  Many surfaces such as ice and hard packed snow require muchlonger stopping distances. Bealert,plan ahead and begin decelerating early.  Improper use of the brake can cause the drive track to lose traction,reducing control and increasing the possibility of an accident.  # TURNING  For most snow surfaces, “body English" is the key to turning.  As you approach a curve,slowdown and begin to turn the handlebars in the desired direction. As you do so,put your weight on the running board to the inside of the turn and lean your upperbody into the turn.  This procedure should be practiced at slow speed many times in a large flat area with no obstacles.Once you have learned this technique,you should be able to perform it at higher speeds or in tighter curves.Lean more as the turn gets sharper or is made at higher speeds
Improper riding procedures such as abrupt throttle changes excessive braking,incorrect body movements,ortoomuch speed for the sharpness of the turn may cause the snowmobile to tip.  If your snowmobile begins to tip while turning, lean more into the turn to regain balance.If necessary,gradually let off on the throttle and/orsteer to the outside of theturn.  <PIC>  # Remember:  Avoid higher speeds until you are thoroughly familiar with the operation of your snowmobile   # RIDING UPHILL  You should practice first on gentle slopes.Try more difficult climbs only after you have developed your skill.Asyou approacha hill, accelerate before you start the climb, and then reduce the throttle opening to prevent track slippage. It is also important tokeep your weight on the uphill side at alltimes.On climbs straight upthehill this canbeaccomplished byleaning forward and,on steeper inclines, standin gon the running boards and leaning forward over the handlebars.(AIsosee“CROSSING A SLOPE.")  Slowdown as your each the crest of the hill,andbe prepared to react to obstacles, sharp drops,or other people or vehicles which maybe on the other side.  If you are unable to continue up a hill,do not spin the track. Stop the engine and set the parking brake.Then pull the rear of the snowmobile around to point the machine back down the hill.Do not get on the down hillside of the machine.When the snowmobile is pointed downhill,restart the engine,release the parking brake,anddescend the hill.  # WARNING  Side hills and steep slopes are not recommended for a beginner or novice snowmobile r.  # RIDING DOWNHILL  When riding downhill,keep speed to a minimum.It is important to apply just enough throttle to keep the clutch engaged while descending the hill.This will allow you to use engine compression to help slow the machine, and to keep the snowmobile from rolling freely down the hill.Also apply the brake frequently,withlight pressure. <PIC>  # WARNING  Use extra caution when applying the brake during descent. Excessive braking will cause the track to lock and will cause a loss of control.    # CROSSING A SLOPE (SIDE HILL)  # WARNING  Side hills are not recommended for a beginner or novice snowmobile r.  Crossing thefaceofa slope(sidehill)requires you to properly position your weight to maintain proper balance. As you travel across the slope,lean your body to position your weight towards the up hillside.A recommended riding position is to kneel with the knee of the downhill leg on the seat and the foot of the uphill leg on the running board.This position will make it easier for you to shift your body weight asneeded.  Snowand ice are slippery,so be prepared for the pos sibi lit y that your snow-mobile could begin to slip sideways on theslope.If this happens,steerin the direction of theslide if there areno obstacles in your path.As you regain proper balance,gradually steer again in the direction you wish to travel.  If your snowmobile starts to tip,steer down the hill toregain balance.  <PIC>  # WARNING  If you are unable to maintain correct balance,andyour snowmobile is going to tip over,dismount your snow mobile immediately on the up hillside.
Operating on ice or icy surfaces can be very dangerous Traction for turning, stopping or starting is much less than thatonsnow.  # WARNING  When you have to operate on ice or icy surfaces, drive slowly and cautiously.Avoid rapid acceleration,turn ing or braking. Steering is minimal and uncontrolled spins area never-present danger.  # HARD-PACKEDSNOW  It can be more difficult to negotiate on hard-packedsnow as both skis and track do not have as much traction.Avoid rapid acceleration, turning or braking.  # OPERATION ON SURFACES OTHER THAN SNOW ORICE  Operation of your snowmobile on surfaces other than ice or snow should be avoided.Operation under such cond it ions will damage or result in rapid wear of ski runners, drivetrack,slide runners and drive sprockets.Operation of the machine under the following conditions should be avoided at all costs:  1. Dirt 2. Sand 3. Rocks 4. Grass 5. Bare pavement  Other conditions that should be avoided for the sake of drive track and slide runner life are:  1.Glare ice surfaces 2.Snow mixed with a lot of dirt and s and  All the above conditions have one thing in common in regard to drive track and slide runners;little or no lub ric ating ability.Drive track and all slide rail systems require lubrication(snowor water)between the plastic runners and the metal track inserts.In the absence of lubrication, the plastic runners will rapidly wear and in severe cases, literally melt away,and the drive track will be subjected to damageand/orfailure.  Also,traction aids such as studs,cleats etc.,maycause further track damage and/orfailure.
Drive track damage and/or failure could result in loss of braking ability and machine control, which could cause an accident.  Always check thedrive track for damage or mis adjustment before operating themachine.  Do not operate the machine if you find damage to the drive track.  # CAUTION:  Be sure to ride on the fresh snow frequently to avoid rapid wear and damage of the drive track and slide runners when operating under ice or hard packed snow conditions.

# TRANSPORTING  When transporting your machine on a trailer or in a truck. observe the following recommendations to help protect your machine from damage:  Makesure thefuel level in thefuel tank is lower than the carburetors.Otherwise,the vibration and bumps from the road surface could make it possible for fuel to flow through the carburetor into the crankcase.Thiscan resultin"hydrostatic lock,"a condition where the engine cannot rotate because of fuel accumulated in the engine.Severe engine damage can result from hydro staticlock.When possible，the fuel tank should be  empty during transportation,especially if the trip will be 30 minutes or longer. If transporting the machine in an open trailer or truck put a tight fitting cover on the machine.A cover spec if icall y designed for your snowmobile is best.Thiswill help keep foreign objects outof the cooling vents in the shroud, and also help protect the machine against damage from debris on the road. If transporting the machine in an open trailer or truck in areas where road salt is used,coat metal suspension surface slightly with oil or other protect ant.This will help protect against corrosion.Be sure to clean the machine when you get to your destination to remove any corr osivesalts

# SPARK PLUG INSPECTION  The spark plug is an important engine component and is easy to inspect.The condition of the spark plug can indicate something of the condition of the engine.Check the coloration on the white porcelain insulator around the center electrode.The ideal coloration at this point is a medium to a light tan color for a machine that is being ridden normally.If as park plug shows a distinctly different color,there could be something wrong with the engine.For example,a very white center electrode porcelain color could indicate an in take track air leak or car bure tion problem for that cylinder.Do not attempt to diagnose such problems yourself.Instead，take the machine to your  dealer.You should periodically remove and inspec t the spark plug because heat and deposits will cause any spark plug to slowly breakdown and erode.Consult your dealer before changing to a different type of spark plug.
Spark plugs are produced in several different thread lengths. The thread length (reach) is the distance from the spark plug gaskets eat to the end of the threaded portion. If thereach is toolong,overheating and engine damage mayresult. If the reach is too short, spark plug fouling and poor performance mayresult.Also,if tooshort,carbonwill form on the exposed threads resulting in combustion chamber hot spots and thread damage.Alwaysusea spark plug with the proper reach.  <PIC>  Before installing any spark plug,measure the electrode gap with a wire thickness gauge and adjust to specification.
<PIC>  When installing the plug, always clean the gasket surface. Wipe off any grime from the threads and torque the spark plug properly.  Spark plug torque: 28 Nm (2.8 m-kg, 20 ft-lb)  ENGINE IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENT  <PIC>  <PIC>  <PIC>  <PIC>

This is because there is less air as altitude increases.Less air means less oxygen available for combustion.  Your snowmobile can be adjusted to overcome most of the problems found in high altitude riding.Carburetor adjustments are the most important. Less air at high altitude makes thefuel/air ratio too rich,which can cause poor performance.Common problems are hard starting,bogging, and plug fouling. Follow the Main Jet Setting chart which is available at an authorized  dealer carefully.Proper car bure tion adjustments will correct thefuel/ airratio.  Remember:less air at higher altitude means there is less horsepower available,even with proper car bure tion.Ex pect acceleration and topspeed to be reduced athigher altitudes.  To overcome operating with less power at high altitudes, your snowmobile may also require different clutch and drive line settings to avoid poor performance and rapid wear.If you plan to operate your snowmobile at an altitude different from the area where you bought your machine,be sure to consult your  dealer.He can tell you if there are any changes necessary for the altitude where you plan toride.  # CAUTION:  The drive chain gears andV-belt clutch shouldbe adjusted when operating over   (3000ft)high altitude.Consult a dealer.

# STORAGE  Long term storage,requires some preventi ve procedures to guard against deter i or a tion.  # 1. Cleaning  Thoroughly clean the machine,inside andout，to remove the corrosive salts and acids that can accumulate.Use Mud and Grease Release,oran equivalent,to loosen mud,greaseand grime. Wash with mild soap, then rinse and dry completely.  # 2. Lubrication  Lubricate moving parts,suspension linkage and pivot points.Use the grease or lubricant specified in the MAINTENANCE section,or  Lube-Z all general purpose lubricant.Proper lubrication fights corrosion while it reduces friction.  # 3.Fuel system preparation  Add  Fuel Conditioner/Stabilizer, or an equivalent,to the fuel tank to help prevent fuel oxidation,gum and varnish deposits,and to inhibit corrosion in the fuel system and carburetor.Inareas where oxygenated fuel("gasohol")is used,completely drain the fuel system. Consult your dealer.  # 4. Engine  Proper storage of the engine is essential l to prevent costly rust and corrosion damage to internal engine components.This is more important than ever in those areas where oxygenated fuel("gasohol") isused,because the alcohol content in the fuel increases the chance for water to enter the engine.Use  Stor-Rite FoggingOil,or an equivalent,toprotect both combustion chamber and crank-  shaft from corrosion.An alternate method is to remove the airbox and squirt oil into the carburetor throats while the engine is running.  # CAUTION:  Donot attempt tostore the machine by simply starting the engine occasionally during the storage period. This can cause more harm than good!Moisture and acids form during combustion which can actually increase the chance for corr o sion damage during the storage period.  # 5. Protection  Apply a coat of wax,such as  Silicone Wax,to painted surfaces.Spray  Silicone Spray,or an equivalent protectant,on the exterior of the engine onthetrack,and on other metal,plastio and rubber parts.  6.Battery  Remove the battery from the machine and check the fluid level.Chargethe battery.Store it in a cool,dry place that is above  $0^{\circ}\mathrm{C}$   $(32^{\circ}\mathsf{F})$  ，but less than  $30^{\circ}\mathrm{C}$   $(90^{\circ}\mathsf{F})$  .Check battery condition with a hydrometer monthly,and charge as necessary.  # WARNING  ·Never smoke or make and break connections atthe battery while charging. Sparks mayignite thebattery gas. Be sure the battery terminals are tight and that the battery vent tube is properly routed andis securely attached to thebattery.
# Do not charge battery quickly.Chargefor 10hours at1.4amperes. Do not charge battery quickly. Chargefor 10 hours at 1.6 amperes.  # 7.Track  Loosen the track, and block up the chas s is so that the track is suspended above theground.  8. Drive belt  Remove the drivebelt and store sepa rately.  9. Storage  Store the machine in a dry,well-venti- late d place out of direct sunlight.Puta fabric(breathable)cover over it,preferably one designed for your machine.Do not use a plastic or vinyl cover—condens ation could be trapped underneath whichcould increase the chance of rusting.  # RETURN TO SERVICE AFTER STORAGE  When returning your machine to service, reinstall the drive belt and adjust the track. Reinstall the battery,and make sure the battery vent tube is properly reinstalled and is not kinked.  Remove the spark plugs and clean them or replace them.Perform all otherpre-operation and seasonal maintenance listed in the Periodic Maintenance chart.  For peak performance,it is recommended thatyou haveyour machine checked and tuned by your a dealer.Hehasthe experience and training to help you get the maximum performance and use from your dealer.  $\textcircled{1}$  Speedometer light  $\circledcirc$  Carburetor switch  $\textcircled{3}$  Tail/brake light  $\textcircled{4}$  Spark plug  $\circledcirc$  Ignition coil  $\circledcirc$  CDI unit  $\textcircled{\scriptsize{2}}$  CDI magneto  $\circledast$  Voltage regulator  $\circledcirc$  Brake light switch  $\circledcirc$  Headlight beam switch  $\circledcirc$  Main switch  $\circledcirc$  Accel switch  $\textcircled{3}$  Engines top switch  $\textcircled{4}$  Engine stop switch  $\textcircled{5}$  Frame ground  $\circledcirc$  Headlight  $\circledcirc$  Thumb warmer (option)  $\circledast$  Grip warmer (option)  $\circledcirc$  Grip warmer switch(option)  # COLOR CODE  B Black Blue G Green Yellow R Red Orange Br..
