MAINTENANCE
Clutch System
Torque Stop
If your snowmobile is equipped with
an engine torque stop, periodically
check torque stop clearance.
With clutches in proper alignment,
the torque stop clearance should be
.010I-.030I (.25-.75 mm) from the
engine case.
Adjust if necessary, and lock the jam
nut.
Reverse Kit Maintenance
If your snowmobile is equipped with reverse, or if you have a reverse kit
installed, it's especially important to maintain track tension as specified
on page 110.
Allow the engine to reach idle speed before attempting to shift into or
out of reverse.
WARNING
Improper track tension can cause serious damage to the snowmobile, which
can result in loss of vehicle control and serious injury or death. Always main-
tain the track tension as specified.
CAUTION
Damage will occur to chaincase or transmission if shifting is attempted before
the machine has come to a complete stop. Make sure the snowmobile has
completely stopped and the engine has returned to idle speed before shifting
gears.
