Oil Level Check
NOTE: Read the entire oil check procedure before checking the oil level.
The oil level will rise as engine temperature increases. The oil level will
be lower when the engine is cold. To obtain a proper oil level reading,
the snowmobile must be on a level surface, and the engine coolant tem-
perature must be between 145 and 160 degrees F. (63-71 degrees C).
NOTE: Always check the oil level before operating a snowmobile that has
tipped over.
CAUTION
Severe engine damage may occur if procedures for checking the oil level are
not followed precisely. Always check the oil with the snowmobile positioned
on a level surface. Always check the oil level when the coolant temperature is
within the specified range.
