Track Maintenance
Track Inspection
WARNING
Broken track rods can cause a rotating track to come off the
machine, which could cause serious injury or death. Never
operate with a damaged track. Never rotate a damaged track
under power.
1. Using a hoist, safely lift
and support the rear of
the snowmobile off the
ground.
2. Rotate the track by hand
to check for damage.
3. Carefully examine the
track along the entire
length of each rod (A).
Bend the track to check
for breakage.
4. Replace the track if any
rod damage is found.
Track Lubrication
WARNING
Operating with insufficient lubrication between the slider 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 little or no snow for lubrication.
The slide rail needs snow for lubrication. Excessive wear indicates
insufficient lubrication. A new slider can cause faster heat build-up in
limited lubrication, resulting in excessive wear.
NOTE:
If excessive slider wear occurs due to poor snow conditions,
additional wheel kits are available. See your dealer for more
information.
NOTE:
Track damage or failure caused by operation on ice or under
other poor lubrication conditions will void the track warranty.
