OPERATION

Emergency Starting

Your machine is equipped with a tool kit containing essential tools for

emergency use. If the recoil starter system fails, an emergency start

strap is provided in the kit.

WARNING

Serious injury can result from wrapping the start strap around

your hand while using the emergency starting procedure. DO

NOT wrap the start strap around your hand. Keep all bystanders

and loose clothing away from the snowmobile when using the

emergency starting procedure.

To use the emergency start strap:
1. Open the clutch guard.
2. Push on the inner

sheave of the clutch

and rotate clockwise

slightly to relieve belt

tension.

3. Starting at one of the

tower struts, wind the

strap counterclockwise

around the clutch as

shown.

4. Pull the strap abruptly so the strap comes free of the clutch while

starting the engine.
