Preparation after Storage
Taking the snowmobile out of storage
and correctly preparing it for another sea-
son 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 snowmobile.
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 specifications.
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.

NOTE: On the 2000 models,
inspect the in-line fuel filter and
replace if necessary.
5. Inspect all fuel hoses and oil hoses
for deterioration or cracks; replace if
necessary. Make sure all connections
are tight; then on the 2000 models,
fill the oil-injection reservoir with the
recommended 2-cycle oil.

NOTE: After prolonged storage of
the 2000 models, Arctic Cat recom-
mends one tankful of 100:1 gas/oil mix-
ture be used in conjunction with the oil-
injection system to ensure proper lubri-
cation.
6. On the 2000 models, inspect the
spark plugs. Replace, gap, or clean
as necessary.
7. Verify the condition of and the
adjustment of the carburetors and
choke cable (on
the 2000 models)
and throttle cable (on all models).
8. Tighten all nuts, bolts, and cap
screws making sure all nuts, bolts,
and
cap screws are tightened
securely.
9. If not done during preparation for
storage, lubricate the rear suspen-
sion, spindles, and steering arms
with all-temperature grease.
10. On the 5000 models, check the cool-
ant level and all coolant hoses and
connections for deterioration or
cracks. Add properly mixed coolant
as necessary.
11. On the 2000 models, clean the
engine cooling fins and vents.
12. On electric start models, charge the
battery until fully charged; then con-
nect the battery cables making sure
to connect the positive cable first.
Test the electric start system.
13. Inspect the entire brake system, all
controls, headlight, taillight, brake-
light, ski wear bars, and headlight
aim; adjust or replace as necessary.
14. Adjust the track to the proper tension
and alignment.
CAUTION
On the 2000 models if the gas in each
carburetor float chamber was not
drained prior to storage, the carbure-
tors must be cleaned before starting
the engine.
! WARNING
On the 2000 models, be sure to tighten
the swivel adapter jam nuts securely. If
a jam nut isn’t tightened, the adjuster
can rotate out of the carburetor cap
causing the throttle valve not to return
to the full-closed position.
