CAUTION:
@
● Always keep the battery charged.
Storing a discharged battery can
cause permanent battery damage.
● To charge a sealed-type (MF) battery,
a special (constant-voltage) battery
charger is required. Using a conven-
tional battery charger will damage
the battery. If you do not have
access to a sealed-type (MF) battery
charger, have a Yamaha dealer
charge your battery.
●
Do not charge the battery quickly.
Charge the battery for 10 hours at
1.2 amperes.

7. Drive track
Loosen the drive track and block up the
chassis so that the track is suspended
above the ground.
8. V-belt
Remove the V-belt and store separately.
9. Storage
Store the snowmobile in a dry, well-venti-
lated place out of direct sunlight. Put a fab-
ric cover over the snowmobile, preferably
one that is designed for it. Do not use a
plastic or vinyl cover—condensation could
be trapped underneath which could
increase the chances of rusting.
Returning to service after storage
When returning your snowmobile to ser-
vice, install the V-belt and battery and
adjust the drive track.
Remove the spark plugs and clean or
replace them if necessary. Perform all
other pre-operation and seasonal mainte-
nance checks listed in the periodic mainte-
nance chart.
NOTE:
@
Before installing the battery, have a
Yamaha dealer inspect and fully charge it.
@
For peak performance, it is recommended
that you have your snowmobile checked
and tuned by a Yamaha dealer. The dealer
has the experience and training to help you
get the maximum performance and use out
of your Yamaha snowmobile.
