Note
If the Snowdog regularly leans to one side,
increase the tension of the track on the same side.
On the opposite side, loosen the tension of the
track.
13.5 Track maintenance
Check the track condition and its tension after each trip.
Excessive track tension can lead to power loss and engine
overload.
Never operate the Snowdog with severe track damage.
In case of severe track damage, you should seal it to prevent
moisture from ruining the track’s cord.
The cord threads should not stick out of the track’s side.
If they do, cut them off.
Check the track’s metal clips after each trip. If bent,
straighten. If a clips is missing, replace it. Operating
damaged tracks leads to their rapid deterioration.
Inspect and clean the track after each trip.
When operating the Snowdog in the wet snow, clean the
track more often, especially before a prolonged stop. Do not
expose the track to oil and various chemicals.
Do not store the Snowdog under direct sunlight.
Loosen the track before storage.
We recommend storing the Snowdog in suspended position.
In case of a long-term storage the track must be moved
to a new position once a month.

into proper position.
