

NOTE: A long T50 ball head torx

bit will be needed to remove or
install the torx screws.

4. Loosen the jam nut.
5. Turn the chain tension adjustment

bolt clockwise until it is finger tight;

then loosen it 1 1/2 turns.

0747-831

6. While holding the bolt with a

wrench, tighten the jam nut to 2.4

kg-m (18 ft-lb).

7. Install the resonator and secure

using the existing gasket, spring, and

cap screws. Tighten the screws to

1.2 kg-m (9 ft-lb) then to 2.4 kg-m

(18 ft-lb) in a crisscross pattern.



NOTE: Apply a small amount of

high temperature anti-seize lubri-
cant to the threads of the screws.

8. Install the turbo heat shield and

secure using the existing screws and

washers. Tighten securely.

9. Install the hood and access panels.

Drive Belt

The drive belt transfers power from the

drive clutch to the driven clutch. If the

belt is worn, cracked, or stretched, maxi-

mum power will not be transmitted and

the belt could also fail and therefore must

be replaced. Periodic checks (at least

once a month under normal usage) of two

drive belt specifications are essential.

1. Measure the outside circumference of

the drive belt. The belt should be

within 1118-1126 mm (44.0-44.3 in.).

2. Measure the outside width of the drive

belt. The belt should be at least 34.5

mm (1.36 in.) on a new belt or 32.5

mm (1.28 in.) on a broken in belt.

3. Check the belt for cracking, fraying, etc.

If any of the specifications or conditions

are unsatisfactory, replace the drive belt.



NOTE: Drive belts should be pur-

chased from an authorized Yamaha
Snowmobile dealer, as Yamaha drive
belts are made to exact specifica-
tions and of quality material. Belts
made by other manufacturers may
not be of the same specifications or
quality and, therefore, usage could
result in poor performance and pre-
mature belt failure.



NOTE: Before starting the snow-

mobile in extremely cold tempera-
tures, the drive belt should be
removed and warmed up to room
temperature. Once the drive belt is
at room temperature, install the
drive belt.

Also, new drive belts have a break-in

period of 40 km (25 miles). After installing

a new drive belt, drive the snowmobile for

40 km (25 miles) at 3/4 throttle or less. By

revving the engine up and down (but not

exceeding 97 km/h [60 mph]), the exposed

cord on the side of a new belt will be worn

down. This allows the drive belt to gain its

optimum flexibility and will extend drive

belt life.

Jam Nut

Adjustment Bolt

Chain Adjuster

CAUTION

Never run the engine with the drive
belt removed. Excessive revving of the
engine could result in serious engine
damage and drive clutch failure.
