SUSPENSION
SUSPENSION MAINTENANCE
The following procedure should be performed regularly to properly maintain the
suspension of your snow bike.
1. Adjust the track only if it starts to skip on the drivers. This sometimes
happens with new tracks after they have been run. Proper track tension
should be 1/2 to 3/4” free hang from the top of track clip to the bottom of the
track at its lowest hanging point. Adjust equally on both sides for the track to
run true.
BRAKES
HYDRAULIC BRAKE INSPECTION
Inspect the brake lever reserve before each use of the snow bike. See page 27.
Brake pads must be replaced when the brake pad material becomes thinner
than 1/16 inch (1.5 mm). A kit is available for replacing brake pads. Your
Timbersled dealer can assist.
WARNING
Brake failure during operation can result in serious injury or death. Properly
functioning brakes are vital to your safety. Be sure the brake pads do not drag
on the disc and that brake lever travel is not excessive. Always replace brake
pads when the brake pad material becomes thinner than 1/16 inch (1.5 mm).
