STORAGE AND PRESEASON PREPARATION
Storage
It is during summer, or when a snowmobile is not in use for more than
one month that proper storage is a necessity.
To prepare your snowmobile, refer to an authorized SKI-DOO dealer.
Engine Cooling System
Antifreeze should be replaced for the storage period to prevent anti-
freeze deterioration.
The antifreeze replacement and a density test should be performed by
an authorized SKI-DOO dealer.
CAUTION:
Improper antifreeze mixture might allow freezing of the
liquid in the cooling system if vehicle is stored in area where freez-
ing point is reached. This would seriously damage the engine. Fail-
ure to replace the antifreeze for storage may cause its degradation
which could result in poor cooling when engine will be used.
CAUTION:
Do not run engine during storage period.
Preseason Preparation
Refer to an authorized SKI-DOO dealer.
CAUTION:
Have carburetor(s) cleaned-up before restarting engine.
WARNING
Have an authorized SKI-DOO dealer inspect fuel and oil systems
integrity as specified in PERIODIC MAINTENANCE CHART.
