Preparation after Storage
Taking the snowmobile out of storage
and correctly preparing it for operation
will assure many miles and hours of trou-
ble-free snowmobiling. Yamaha recom-
mends the following procedure to
prepare the snowmobile.
1. Clean the snowmobile thoroughly.
Clean the exterior of the snowmo-
bile using a soap and water mixture.
2. Clean the engine cooling fins and
the recoil starter vents. Remove the
cloth from the muffler.
3. Check all control wires and cables
for signs of wear or fraying. Replace
if necessary. Use cable ties or tape to
route wires and cables away from
hot or rotating parts.
4. Check brake-lever travel distance,
throttle lever tension, all controls,
ski alignment, track tension, track
alignment, brake pads, and ski wear
bars; adjust or replace as necessary.
5. Examine the in-line fuel filter and
clean or replace if necessary.
6. Fill the gas tank.
7. Clean the seat cushion with a vinyl
protectant and a damp cloth.
8. Check the spark plug (clean, gap,
and/or replace as necessary); then
start the engine and ensure proper
carburetor adjustments.
