8�  Check the condition and lubricate the plastic inserts� 

If plastic inserts are missing or worn out — insert 

new ones� 

9�  Visually check the track tension� If necessary, pull 

the track�

10�  Check the condition of the sliders�

11�  Visually inspect the Snowdog for leakage (fuel, oil)�

7.6  Fueling

Make sure there is enough fuel in the fuel tank� Use only 87 

or higher octane lead-free gasoline according to the engine 

manual� 

 

!

Warning

•  Fuel is highly flammable and explosive, you should 

avoid getting burned and injured while working 

with it.

•  Stop the engine before refueling. Make sure 

there are no heating appliances, sparks or flames 

around.

•  Refuel outdoors only.

•  Refuel only in a well-ventilated area and only if the 

engine is stopped. If the engine has been recently 

running, let it cool down first.

•  Spilled fuel is not only highly inflammable but can 

also harm the environment. In case of spilled fuel, 

wipe down as soon as possible.

Do not fill the tank with fuel above the maximum 

level. The fuel expands when heated. If the tank 

is overfilled, the fuel heated by engine or sun can 

leak from the tank.

Do not spill fuel, especially on the engine and the 

muffler as it may cause fire and severe injuries.

Wipe the spilled fuel dry.

After refueling make sure that the cap of the fuel 

tank is sealed tightly.

7.7  Checking the chain tension

The chain tension is checked with a loose lift of the driven 

CVT pulley� Increase or reduce gears and check the loose lift 

of the driven CVT pulley� The chain will have a loose lift of 

0�39–1�57 in (10–40 mm) along its diameter�

For accurate checking of the chain tension:

1�  Remove the rubber cap 

(1)

 of the inspection hole� 

2�  Increase or reduce gears in the reverse gearbox� 

3�  Rotate the driven pulley disk counterclockwise all 

the way to increase the tension or rotate the driven 

pulley disk clockwise to decrease the tension� The 

difference of the chain positions must be 0�04–0�27 

in (1–7 mm)� 

The chain tension is checked with a loose lift of the driven 

CVT pulley� Increase or reduce gears and check the loose lift 

of the driven CVT pulley� The chain will have a loose lift of 

0�39–1�57 in (10–40 mm) along its diameter�

While operating, the chain stretches, and the distance 

between chain links changes� If the adjustment range is not 

enough, the chain should be replaced� Do not shorten the 

chain by removing one or more links�

7.7.1  Adjusting the chain tension

To adjust the chain tension:

1�  Remove the rubber cap 

(1)

 of the inspection hole�
