Drive Clutch/Driven
Pulley Alignment
The alignment between the drive clutch
and driven pulley is set at the factory.
Normally, no adjustment is necessary as
long as neither the drive clutch nor the
driven pulley is removed or disassem-
bled. However, if premature drive belt
wear is experienced or if the drive belt
turns over, the drive clutch/driven pulley
alignment must be checked. Take the
snowmobile to an authorized Arctic Cat
Snowmobile dealer for this service. If not
under warranty, this service is at the dis-
cretion and expense of the snowmobile
owner.
Fuel Pump
The fuel pump is designed to provide
adequate amount of gas to the
injectors
at all throttle settings. If a fuel delivery
problem is suspected, take the snowmo-
bile to an authorized Arctic Cat Snowmo-
bile dealer. If not under warranty, this
service is at the discretion and expense of
the snowmobile owner.
Shock Absorbers
Rebuildable Gas
Each shock absorber should be visibly
checked weekly for fluid leakage, cracks
or breaks in the body/reservoir, or a bent
shaft. If any one of these conditions is
detected, replacement or service is neces-
sary. Take the snowmobile to an autho-
rized Arctic Cat Snowmobile dealer for
this service. If not under warranty, this
service is at the discretion and expense of
the snowmobile owner.
NOTE: When the snowmobile is
operated in extremely cold weather (-
23° C/-10° F or colder), a small
amount of leakage may be present.
Unless the leakage is excessive,
replacement is not necessary.
NOTE: The frequency of servicing
rebuildable shock absorbers will
vary according to the types of condi-
tions and terrain the snowmobile has
been subjected to. If riding quality
deteriorates (or seems to be deterio-
rating), take the snowmobile to an
authorized Arctic Cat Snowmobile
dealer for shock absorber evaluation
and/or servicing. This service is at
the discretion and expense of the
snowmobile owner.
Servicing rebuildable shock absorbers is
considered normal maintenance and is
the responsibility of the owner. Take the
snowmobile to an authorized Arctic Cat
Snowmobile dealer for this service. This
service is at the discretion and expense of
the snowmobile owner. Kits are available
to either stiffen or soften gas shock valv-
ing. If changes in shock valving are
desired, see an authorized Arctic Cat
Snowmobile dealer. This service is at the
discretion and expense of the snowmo-
bile owner.
Standard Track (XF/F
Models)
Accelerated wear strip and track clip
wear caused by operating on ice or hard-
packed snow conditions is NOT covered
under Arctic Cat Inc. warranty policy.
Paddle Track (XF High
Country/M Models)
These models are equipped with a Power
Claw style track which is specially
designed for use in powder snow riding
conditions. When the Power Claw track is
operated in hard-packed snow conditions,
it will run slightly slower than a standard
track and it will accelerate wear strip wear.
To decrease the amount of wear strip wear,
slower speeds must be maintained when
operating on hard-packed trails. Acceler-
ated wear strip wear caused by operating a
Power Claw track on hard-packed snow
conditions is NOT covered under Arctic
Cat Inc. warranty policy.
NOTE: If operating on ice or hard-
packed snow conditions, it is recom-
mended that Ice Scratchers (p/n 5639-
897) be installed to reduce wear strip
wear and engine overheating.
CAUTION
DO NOT attempt to service the drive
clutch and driven pulley. The drive
clutch and driven pulley must be ser-
viced by an authorized Arctic Cat
Snowmobile dealer only.
