MAINTENANCE
NOTE: When adjusting the
brake, do not accidentally close
the gas tank shut-off valve.
NOTE: When new brake pads
are installed, a “burnishing” pro-
cess is required. Drive the snow-
mobile slowly and compress the
brake lever several times until the
pads just start to warm up; then
allow them to cool down. This pro-
cedure stabilizes the pad material
and extends the life of the pads.
HYDRAULIC BRAKE
SYSTEM
Arctic Cat recommends that the brake
system (brake lever, fluid reservoir,
hose, caliper, pads, and brake disc) be
checked daily for fluid leakage, wear,
or damage and for proper operation.
Also, the brake fluid level must be
checked every time before starting the
engine. The brake fluid must be main-
tained at a level just below the high
mark on the fluid reservoir.
Checking/Adding
Brake Fluid
1. With the fluid reservoir/sight
glass reservoir in a level position,
check the fluid level. The brake
fluid level must be just below the
high mark in the brake fluid reser-
voir or visible in the sight glass.
NOTE: If the sight glass appears
dark, there is a sufficient amount
of fluid in the reservoir.

2. If the brake fluid level is below
the low mark or not visible in the
sight glass, remove the reservoir
cover and add Arctic Cat
approved brake fluid until the
fluid is at the recommended level.
Install and secure the reservoir
cover. Do not allow moisture to
contaminate the brake system.
! WARNING
When the brake adjustment knob
has reached its maximum adjust-
ment, both brake pads MUST BE
REPLACED. Take the snowmobile
to an authorized Arctic Cat Snow-
mobile dealer for this service.
This service is at the discretion
and expense of the snowmobile
owner.
! WARNING
DO NOT operate the snowmobile
when the brake lever lock is
engaged or when any component
in the brake system is damaged,
worn, or adjusted improperly. If
the snowmobile is operated and
the brake system is not function-
ing properly, severe personal
injury could result.
! CAUTION
Brake fluid is highly corrosive. Do
not spill brake fluid on any sur-
face of the snowmobile.
