CAUTION
Aggressive studding patterns may require grinding protruding
stud bolts flush to prevent idler wheel damage. Maintain track
tension on studded tracks on the tight side of the spec to prevent
heat exchanger damage. Center of stud must be at least 1 1/8″
(2.86 cm) from outside edge of the track.
CAUTION
If traction products are added to the track, wear strips must be
installed in the tunnel to avoid excessive wear.
Never add shims to the wear strip. Track damage will result
because of lack of clearance between upper carrier wheels and
track.
Use of studs longer than the recommended length on machines
equipped with center coolers will result in center cooler damage
or damage to the tunnel.
Use only Polaris traction products on your snowmobile. Track
warranties are void if track damage or failure results from improper or
excessive stud installation or the use of non-Polaris traction products.
WARNING
Loss of control can result in serious personal injury or death.
Proper balance of traction products on the skis and track must be
maintained to obtain proper vehicle control on hard-packed snow
or ice. See your dealer for assistance.
