PRE-RIDE INSPECTIONS
Before Starting the Engine
Before starting the engine, always refer to all safety warnings pertaining
to snowmobile operation. Never start the engine without checking all
vehicle components to be sure of proper operation.
WARNING! Operating the vehicle with worn, damaged, or malfunctioning
components could result in serious injury or death. Never start the engine
without checking all vehicle components to be sure of proper operation.
Read and Understand Your Owner's Manual
Read the Owner's Manual completely and refer to it often. The manual
is your guide to safe and enjoyable snowmobiling experience.
Throttle Lever
The throttle and brake are the primary controls of your snowmobile.
Always make sure both are functioning properly.
Squeeze the throttle lever to make sure it compresses evenly and
smoothly. When released, the lever should immediately return to the
idle position without binding or hesitation. If the throttle does not
function smoothly, or if you discover excessive lever freeplay, DO NOT
start the engine. Have the throttle serviced immediately.
Throttle Safety Switch
Test the throttle safety switch system before the snowmobile is operated.
