Track Inspection
Use of traction products such as studs increases the possibility of track
damage and/or failure. Driving at high speeds for extended periods of
time in marginal lubrication could severely damage track rods, break
track edges and cause other track damage. Examples of marginal lubri-
cation would include frozen bodies of water without snow cover, icy
trails, and no-snow conditions.
Track damage or failure caused by operation on ice or poor lubrication
conditions voids the track warranty.
WARNING
Operating the snowmobile with a damaged track increases the possibility of
track failure, which could cause loss of control resulting in serious injury or
death. Always inspect the track for damage before using the vehicle.
