GENERAL INFORMATION
DRIVE CLUTCH AND
DRIVEN PULLEY
The drive clutch and driven pulley do
not require lubrication; therefore, no
special maintenance is required by the
snowmobile owner.
However, the drive clutch and driven
pulley should be disassembled,
cleaned, and inspected by an autho-
rized Arctic Cat Snowmobile dealer
after every 800 miles of operation or
at the end of the snowmobiling season
whichever occurs first. This service is
at the discretion and expense of the
snowmobile owner.
When operating the snowmobile at
high altitudes, it may be necessary to
change certain component parts of the
drive clutch and/or the driven pulley.
See an authorized Arctic Cat Snow-
mobile dealer for further information.
DRIVE CLUTCH/
DRIVEN PULLEY
ALIGNMENT
The parallelism and the offset between
the drive clutch and driven pulley are
set at the factory. Normally, no adjust-
ment is necessary as long as neither
the drive clutch nor the driven pulley
is removed or disassembled. However,
if premature drive belt wear is experi-
enced or if the drive belt turns over,
the drive clutch/driven pulley align-
ment must be checked. Take the snow-
mobile to an authorized Arctic Cat
Snowmobile dealer for this service. If
not under warranty, this service is at
the discretion and expense of the
snowmobile owner.
DRIVE CHAIN
TENSION
The drive chain must be properly ten-
sioned for proper operation to prevent
“ratcheting” and unnecessary chain/
sprocket wear. On these snowmo-
biles, there are two different chain ten-
sioners in the chain case. One chain
tensioner is automatic and one is man-
ual. The automatic chain tensioner
will take up the slack in the chain
under most operating conditions; how-
ever, every 500 miles or whenever
repeated hard accelerations will occur,
the manual chain tensioner should be
adjusted. Arctic Cat recommends that
the chain, sprockets, and chain ten-
sioner be checked for wear and proper
alignment and adjustment every year,
1000 miles, or whenever a drive chain
related problem is suspected. Take the
snowmobile to an authorized Arctic
Cat Snowmobile dealer for this ser-
vice. If not under warranty, this ser-
vice is at the discretion and expense of
the snowmobile owner. To adjust the
manual drive chain tensioner, use the
following procedure:
1. Loosen the jam nut on the chain
tensioner adjustment bolt.
2. Tighten the adjustment bolt fin-
ger-tight.

! CAUTION
DO NOT attempt to service the
drive clutch and driven pulley. The
drive clutch and driven pulley must
be serviced by an authorized Arc-
tic Cat Snowmobile dealer only.
