Transporting the Vehicle
Make sure that oil reservoir and fuel tank caps are properly installed.
Tilt bed trailers can easily be equipped with a winch mechanism to
afford maximum safety in loading. Simple as it may seem, never
drive your snowmobile onto a tilt bed trailer or any other kind of trailer
or vehicle. Many serious accidents have resulted from driving up
and over a trailer. Anchor your vehicle securely, front and rear, even
on short hauls. Be certain all equipment is securely fastened. Cover
your snowmobile when trailering to prevent road grime from causing
damage.
Be certain your trailer meets state or provincial requirement. Ensure
the hitch and safety chains are secure and the brake, turn indicators
and clearance lights all function.
Engine Overheating
Engine overheating pilot lamp will light up if engine is too hot.
Reduce snowmobile speed and run snowmobile in loose snow or
stop engine immediately.
Check for adequate coolant level. See an authorized SKI-DOO deal-
er.
Fuel Flooded Engine

WARNING
Never depress throttle when starting engine, even if flooded
with gas.
Install new spark plugs and restart engine.
Rear Suspension Slider Shoe Sticking
Slider shoes are cooled and lubricated by snow. When riding at mod-
erate or high speed on a thin-snow-covered surface, slider shoes may
stick on metallic track guides.
Run snowmobile on a surface covered by snow or drive snowmobile
at very slow speed.
Have slider shoes inspected by an authorized SKI-DOO dealer.
