TRACTION ENHANCING PRODUCTS
Acceleration
Using studs on the track will allow your sled to accelerate better on
packed snow and ice but will have no noticeable effect on soft snow.
This can cause sudden variations in traction under certain conditions.
WARNING
To prevent surprises that could lead to a loss of control of the
snowmobile:
– 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 back-
wards, possibly 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.
Important Safety Rules
WARNING
To prevent serious injury to individuals near the snowmobile:
– NEVER stand behind or near a moving track.
– Always use a wide-base snowmobile stand with a rear de-
flector panel if it is necessary to rotate track.
– When the track is raised off the ground, only run it at the
lowest possible speed.
Centrifugal force could cause debris, damaged or loose studs,
pieces of torn track, or an entire severed track to be violently
thrown backwards out of the tunnel with tremendous force.
