SAFETY

Operator Safety

Stay Away From Moving Parts

Be alert when riding, and remain properly seated to stay clear of the

track. Your snowmobile is propelled by a revolving track that must be

partially exposed for proper operation. Serious injuries may result if

hands, feet, or clothing become entangled in the track.

Never attempt adjustments with the engine running. Turn off the

ignition, raise the hood, make the adjustment, secure shields and

guards, secure the hood, and then restart the engine to check its

operation.

Survival Preparation

For your safety, always ride in a group of other snowmobilers. Always

tell someone where you’re going and how long you expect to be gone.

If it isn’t possible to ride with others, and you must travel into remote

areas, always carry survival equipment that’s appropriate to the

conditions you may encounter. Such equipment may include, but is

not limited to: extra clothing, a sleeping bag, a flashlight, food and

water, a signaling mirror, a means of building a fire, and a two-way

radio or cellular telephone.

Never hold the snowmobile up or stand

behind it while warming up the track. A

loose track or flying debris could cause

serious personal injury or death.
We recommend having your dealer perform

track service and alignment procedures.

WARNING

If fingers or clothing contact the moving parts of an engine,

serious injury can result. Always stop the engine before

attempting adjustments.
