SKAG REPLACEMENT
WARNING
Worn skis and/or skags will adversely affect handling.
Loss of vehicle control may result, causing serious
injury or death. See your dealer's studding chart for
recommended skags. If you install longer or more
aggressive carbide skags than the original equipment, it
may also be necessary to add track studs to maintain
proper vehicle control while turning on hard-packed
snow or ice.
Check skags before each use of the snowmobile to
ensure positive steering characteristics. Skags must be
replaced when worn to half their original diameter.
Replace if carbide is damaged or worn away.
SKAG REPLACEMENT
NOTICE
Always replace ski skags in pairs.
1. Raise and support the front of the snowmobile so the
skis are approximately 6 inches (15.2 cm) from the
ground.
2. Remove the attaching nuts
q
and pry the skag
downward.
3. Reverse the steps to install a skag. Tighten nuts to
specification.
