MAINTENANCE
Track Lubrication
The slide rail requires adequate snow cover for sufficient lubrication.
Excessive wear indicates insufficient lubrication. A new rail slide can
cause faster heat build-up in limited lubrication, resulting in excessive
wear.
Track damage or failure caused by operation on ice or under other poor
lubrication conditions will void the track warranty.
NOTICE: High speed use on hard-packed surfaces is not recommended for
models equipped with a deep lug track. Track lug damage may occur.
Keep high speed use to a minimum, including frequent slow-speed
intervals for track cooling.
WARNING
Operating with insufficient lubrication between the rail slide and track guide
clips can cause track failure, loss of vehicle control and loss of braking ability,
which can result in serious injury or death.
Avoid operating for extended periods on ice and other surfaces that have lit-
tle or no snow for lubrication.
