General Information
Snowmobile
Identification
The Arctic Cat Snowmobile has two
important identification numbers. The
Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is
stamped into the tunnel near the right-
side footrest and on a decal beneath the
seat. The decal also displays pertinent
production information. The Engine
Serial Number (ESN) is stamped into the
crankcase of the engine.
0726-383
These numbers are required by the dealer
to complete warranty claims properly. No
warranty will be allowed by Arctic Cat
Inc. if the engine serial number or VIN is
removed or mutilated in any way.
Always provide the snowmobile name,
VIN, and ESN when contacting an autho-
rized Arctic Cat Snowmobile dealer for
parts, service, accessories, or warranty. If
the complete engine must be replaced,
ask the dealer to notify Arctic Cat for
correct registration information.

Gasoline-Oil
Recommended Gasoline
(600/1000 cc Models)
The recommended gasoline to use in
these snowmobiles is 87 octane regular
unleaded. In many areas, oxygenates
(either ethanol or MTBE) are added to
the gasoline. Oxygenated gasolines con-
taining up to 10% ethanol or up to 15%
MTBE are acceptable gasolines.
When using ethanol blended gasoline, it
is not necessary to add a gasoline anti-
freeze since ethanol will prevent the
accumulation of moisture in the fuel sys-
tem.
NOTE: For optimum performance,
do not exceed the recommended 87
octane gasoline. Using a higher
octane gasoline will not increase
overall performance.
Recommended Gasoline
(800 cc Models)
The only recommended gasoline to use in
these snowmobiles is 91 octane (minimum).
CAUTION
Do not use white gas or gasolines
containing methanol. Only Arctic
Cat approved gasoline additives
should be used.
