Traction Products

n Carbide Skags

A skag is a replaceable bar attached to the underside of the ski to assist
in turning the snowmobile and to prevent ski wear caused by contact
with roads and other bare terrain.

Inspect skags frequently. Worn skags may reduce steering and braking
control on hard-packed snow and ice. Replace worn skags to maintain
proper balance and vehicle control.

WARNING! Loss of control can result in serious 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.
