Switching from Thumb to Finger
Throttle Position
CAUTION It is highly recom-
mended to immobilize the snowmo-
bile before attempting any modifi-
cation to the throttle position as it
could lead to a hazardous situation.
There are mainly three positions to
choose from when going from the
thumb to the finger throttle position
and the best one will be to the rider's
preference and in direct relation with
the riding style and conditions.

3) Brake Lever
Brake lever is located on the LH side of

terrain and its snow coverage.
