FOREWORD

This Arctic Cat Service Manual contains service, maintenance, and troubleshooting information for certain 2008

Arctic Cat ATV models (see cover). The complete manual is designed to aid service personnel in service-oriented

applications.

Arctic Cat offers additional publications (when they become available) to aid in servicing other ATV models. To

This manual is divided into sections. Each section covers a specific ATV component or system and, in addition to

the standard service procedures, includes disassembling, inspecting, and assembling instructions. When using this

manual as a guide, the technician should use discretion as to how much disassembly is needed to correct any given

condition.

The service technician should become familiar with the operation and construction of each component or system

by carefully studying the complete manual. This manual will assist the service technician in becoming more aware

of and efficient with servicing procedures. Such efficiency not only helps build consumer confidence but also saves

time and labor.

emphasize important information. The symbol

symbol 

! CAUTION

tive because it deals with the possibility of damaging part or parts of the ATV. The symbol
