WARNING
The reverse speed of these snowmobiles is not limited. Al-
ways proceed with caution as fast reverse could result in loss
of vehicle stability and control. Come to complete stop before
selecting reverse gear. Wait until the reverse alarm sounds be-
fore operating throttle to proceed in reverse. Always remain
seated and apply the brake before shifting. Ensure the path
behind is clear of obstacles or bystanders before proceeding.
With snowmobile completely stopped and engine at idle, move lever
to engage in desired gear.
Do not force lever. If unable to shift, apply throttle to move snow-
mobile, stop vehicle then, try again.
