Emergency Starting
If the recoil starter system fails, an emergency start strap is provided in
the tool kit.
1. Open the hood.
2. Remove the left side panel.
3. Remove the air box (pull
aggressively).
4. Using the belt removal
tool, follow the directions
on the air box to relieve
belt tension.
5. Starting at one of the tower
struts, wind the strap counterclockwise around the clutch as shown.
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.
6. Pull the strap abruptly so the strap comes free of the clutch while
starting the engine. Repeat until the engine starts.
