Track Alignment
WARNING
Before checking track alignment, ensure that the track is free
of all particles which could be thrown out while track is ro-
tating. Keep hands, tools, feet and clothing clear of track.
Always lift the snowmobile on a wide-base stand with a rear
deflector panel. Ensure no one is standing in close proximity
to the snowmobile, especially at the rear of the track. Never
rotate track at high speed.
Centrifugal force could cause debris, damaged or loose studs,
pieces of torn track, or an entire severed track to be violently
thrown backwards out of the tunnel with tremendous force.
1. Lift rear of vehicle and support it off the ground.
CAUTION Use proper lifting techniques, notably by using
the force of your legs . Do not attempt to lift the rear of vehicle
if it is above your limits.
2. Start engine and accelerate slightly so that track slowly turns.
This must be done in a short period of time (15 to 20 seconds).
3. Check that the track is well centered; equal distance on both
sides between edges of track guides and slider shoes.
