PREPARATION AFTER STORAGE

PREPARATION AFTER STORAGE

Taking the snowmobile out of storage
and correctly preparing it for another
season will assure many miles and
hours of trouble-free snowmobiling.

Arctic Cat recommends the following

procedure:

1. Clean the snowmobile thoroughly.

Polish the exterior of the snowmo-
bile.

2. Clean the engine. Remove the

cloth from the exhaust system.
Check exhaust system and air-
intake silencer for obstructions.

3. Inspect 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. Inspect the drive belt for cracks

and tears. Check belt specifica-
tions. Replace if damaged or worn.
Install the drive belt.

NOTE: If the old belt is worn but

in reasonable condition, retain it
with the snowmobile as a spare in
case of emergency.

5. Inspect all fuel hoses and oil hoses

for deterioration or cracks; replace
if necessary. Make sure all connec-
tions are tight; then on 2-stroke
models, fill the oil-injection reser-
voir with the recommended 2-
cycle oil (see Gasoline-Oil sub-
section).

NOTE: After prolonged storage,

Arctic Cat recommends one tank-
ful of 100:1 gas/oil mixture be used
in conjunction with the oil-injec-
tion system to ensure proper lubri-
cation.

6. Inspect the spark plugs. Replace,

gap, or clean as necessary.

7. Tighten all nuts, bolts, and cap

screws making sure all nuts, bolts,
and cap screws are tightened
securely.

8. If not done during preparation for

storage, lubricate the rear suspen-
sion, spindles, and steering arms
with a low-temperature grease.

9. Check the coolant level and all

coolant hoses and connections for
deterioration or cracks. Add prop-
erly mixed coolant as necessary.

10. Inspect the entire brake system, all

controls,

headlight,

taillight,

brakelight, ski wear bars, and
headlight aim; adjust or replace as
necessary.

11. Adjust the track to the proper ten-

sion and alignment (see Track
Tension and Track Alignment sub-
sections in the Maintenance sec-
tion).
