ICE AND SNOW BUILD-UP
WARNING
Ice and snow build-up may interfere with the steering and braking of your snow
bike, resulting in serious injury or death. Keep the snow bike free of snow and
ice.
Before driving, manually turn the ski to the left and right to be sure ice and snow
are not interfering with full left and right steering. If difficulty is encountered,
remove ice and snow build-up that may be obstructing the steering.
DRIVING ON SLIPPERY SURFACES
WARNING
Never attempt an abrupt change of direction when operating on slippery
surfaces. Proceed slowly and use extra caution. Driving on ice or hard-packed
snow reduces steering and braking control, which may result in loss of control
and serious injury or death. Slow down and use extra caution when operating
on slippery surfaces.
INADEQUATE SNOW CONDITIONS
NOTICE
Driving in too little snow will result in excessive wear and damage to the slide
rail, track, ski, ski skags, and/or spindle.
WARNING
Inadequate cooling and lubrication will lead to overheating of the slide rail and
track, causing premature wear, damage and failure, which can result in serious
injury. Reduce speeds and frequently drive into fresh snow to allow adequate
cooling and polishing of the slide rail and track surfaces. Avoid operating for
prolonged periods on ice, hard-packed surfaces or roads.
