Oversteering
In certain conditions, using more ag-
gressive ski carbide runners without
studs on the rear track could make
the snowmobile prone to oversteer-
ing, see illustration.

OVERSTEERING
Understeering
In certain conditions, the use of studs
on the track could make the snowmo-
bile prone to understeering if the skis
are not equipped with more aggres-
sive ski carbide runners, see illustra-
tion.

UNDERSTEERING
Controlled Driving
A balanced combination of carbide ski
runners and studs on the track en-
sures adequate control and better han-
dling, see illustration.

CONTROLLED DRIVING
Acceleration
Using studs on the track will allow your
sled to accelerate better on packed
snow and ice but will have no notice-
able effect on soft snow. This can
cause sudden variations in traction un-
der certain conditions.

WARNING
To prevent surprises that could
lead to a loss of control of the
snowmobile, possibly resulting in
serious injury or death:
– Always go easy on the throttle.
– NEVER try to spin the track to
make the rear of the snowmo-
bile skid.
This could cause debris or ice to be
thrown violently backwards, pos-
sibly injuring others nearby or on
snowmobiles behind you.
Braking
As in the case of acceleration, using
studs on the track will give you better
braking capacity on packed snow or
ice but will have no noticeable effect
on soft snow. Braking may thus vary
suddenly under certain conditions.
Be sure to use restraint in braking to
keep from blocking the track in order
to avoid surprises that could lead to a
loss of control.
