Track Inspection

Check track condition at the intervals outlined in the periodic mainte-

nance chart beginning on page 50.

1. Support the rear of the

snowmobile slightly off the

ground with an appropriate

snowmobile support.

2. Rotate the track by hand to

check for wear or damage.

3. Carefully examine the

track along the entire

length of each track rod,

bending the track and

inspecting for breakage.

NOTE:

The three most common

places where breakage

occurs are shown in the

illustration.

4. Check the track clips and

tighten any loose clips. If

any rod damage is found, install a new track.

NOTE:

This snowmobile track has molded-in track clips. It is common for a

thin layer of rubber to detach from the clip area and peel off during ini-

tial use.

WARNING

Inspecting the track while the engine

is running can result in serious per-

sonal injury if the track should being

to move. Never inspect the track with

the engine running. Never hold the

snowmobile up or stand behind it

while rotating the track. A loose track

or flying debris could cause serious

personal injury or death.
