12. Install the battery bracket/solenoid
and tighten the two lock nuts to 105
in.-lb; then install the seat and
secure with the torx-head screw.
Tighten securely.

NOTE: On the LTD prior to lower-
ing and securing the seat, connect
the seat heater harness connector.
Fuses (Pantera 7000)
Fuses protect the snowmobile electrical
system from overloading. If electrical
parts in the snowmobile are not working,
the system may have been overloaded and
caused a blown fuse. Before repairing or
replacing any electrical part, check the
appropriate fuses. If a fuse blows (opens a
circuit), all the parts of the snowmobile
that use that circuit will not work.
Once which fuse to check has been deter-
mined, perform the following steps:
1. Locate the fuse block and remove
the fuse block cover.

NOTE: The fuse block is behind
the coolant overflow bottle.
XM124A

NOTE: There are spare fuses
beneath the fuse block cover.
2. Remove the suspected fuse.

NOTE: Fuse function descriptions
are next to the fuse contacts in the
fuse block.
3. Look through the clear side of the
fuse to see if the element inside is
burned or separated. If it is, the fuse is
blown and should be replaced with a
fuse of the correct amperage rating.
4. Install the fuse panel cover and close
the access panel.
Even after replacing a fuse, it may con-
tinue to blow if the cause of the overload
is not determined. If the fuse continues to
blow, take the snowmobile to an autho-
rized Arctic Cat Snowmobile dealer for
service. If not under warranty, this ser-
vice is at the discretion and expense of
the snowmobile owner.
Brake System
Arctic Cat recommends that the brake
system (brake lever, fluid reservoir, hose,
caliper, pads, and brake disc) be checked
daily for fluid leakage, wear, or damage
and for proper operation. Also, the brake
fluid level must be checked every time
before starting the engine. The brake
fluid must be visible in the sight glass.
Checking/Adding Brake
Fluid
1. With the brake fluid reservoir in a
level position and the cover
removed, check the fluid level. The
brake fluid level must be at the high
brake fluid mark in the reservoir.
! WARNING
Always replace a fuse with one hav-
ing the same specified amperage rat-
ing. Using a fuse with a higher rating
can cause severe wire damage and
could start a fire.
! WARNING
DO NOT operate the snowmobile
when the brake lever lock is engaged
or when any component in the brake
system is damaged, worn, or
adjusted improperly. If the snowmo-
bile is operated and the brake system
is not functioning properly, severe
personal injury could result.
