High-profile pattern drive track
(PZ50MT)
This snowmobile is originally equipped with a
51-mm (2.0-in) high-profile pattern drive track
specifically for use in deep snow riding condi-
tions.
Therefore, avoid prolonged operation on hard
surfaces such as ice, hard-packed snow, dirt,
etc., to extend the life of the track and slide
runners.

●
Only use in deep snow riding condi-
tions.
●
Operation on areas with light snowfall,
ice, hard-packed snow, dirt, or grass will
result in rapid wear or damage to the
track and slide runners from lack of
snow which serves as a lubricant.
