1. If the lube level is low, remove the
three screws securing the shift actua-
tor to the chain case, disconnect the
actuator wiring harness, and remove
the actuator extension, shift detent,
and spring; then add appropriate
amount of Arctic Cat Synthetic
Chain Lube (p/n 6639-539) through
the shift actuator opening until the
lube is halfway up the sight glass.
2. Install the actuator extension and
gently rotate counter clockwise to
make sure the shift fork is in the for-
ward position.

re-install the actuator extension
making sure the notch in the exten-
sion is directed downward.

extension should be lined up with
the notch in the block.

NOTE: Rotate the extension clock-
wise approximately 20° making sure
not to pull out the extension when
