2. Park the snowmobile on a level sur-

face; then start the engine and allow
it to warm up for 5-10 minutes, or if
the snowmobile was operated, allow
the engine to idle for approximately
30 seconds.

3. Shut the engine off; then place drain

pans beneath both engine oil drain
plugs (crankcase and oil reservoir).

ZJ003A

4. Remove the drain plugs and allow

the oil to drain completely.

NOTE: At this point, remove the

strainer from the oil reservoir to
allow the oil to drain completely.

5. After the oil has drained completely,

install the oil strainer, drain plugs,
and washers and tighten to 16 ft-lb.

NOTE: Always install a new Oil Pan

Drain Plug Gasket (p/n 3402-011) and
a new Reservoir Drain Plug O-Ring (p/
n 1670-926) when changing the oil.

6. Install a new belly pan plug.

7. Using an appropriate oil filter wrench,

loosen (but do not remove) the oil fil-
ter and allow the oil to drain from the
filter; then remove the filter.

8. Apply a light coat of fresh engine oil

to the seal of the new oil filter.

9. Install the new oil filter by turning the

oil filter by hand until the seal has con-
tacted the oil filter mounting surface;
then tighten the oil filter to 15 ft-lb.

10. Pour 2.9 l (3 U.S. qt) of the recom-

mended engine oil into the oil reservoir.

11. Open the air bleed bolt located on

the oil pump (beneath the coolant
tank) to purge air from the oil hose.

ZJ004A

NOTE: When air can no longer be

heard purging from oil pump bleed,
tighten the bleed bolt to 7.5 ft-lb.

12. Without starting the engine, place

the

handlebar

emergency

stop

switch to the RUN position and the
ignition switch to the ON position.
The Oil Pressure Warning Icon
should illuminate.

NOTE: If the warning icon does not

illuminate, take the snowmobile to
an authorized Arctic Cat Snowmo-
bile dealer for service. If not under
warranty, this service is at the dis-
cretion and expense of the snowmo-
bile owner.

13. If the warning icon illuminates (from

step 12), start the engine. The warning
icon should go out within five sec-
onds. If it does, proceed to step 14.

NOTE: If the warning icon does not

go out, shut the engine off immedi-
ately and repeat step 11; then place
the ignition switch to the ON posi-
tion and repeat step 13. If the warn-
ing icon does not go out, take the
snowmobile to an authorized Arctic
Cat Snowmobile dealer for service. If
not under warranty, this service is at
the discretion and expense of the
snowmobile owner.

14. Shut the engine off and pour the

remaining amount (0.9 l or 1 U.S.
qt) of recommended oil into the oil
reservoir;

then

proceed

to

the

Checking Engine Oil Level (5000)
sub-section in this section to verify
and finalize the procedure.

CAUTION

Do not attempt to start the engine
with the bleed bolt open.
