PREPARATION FOR STORAGE

PREPARATION FOR STORAGE
Prior to storing the snowmobile, it
must be properly serviced to prevent
corrosion and component deteriora-
tion. An authorized Arctic Cat Snow-
mobile dealer should perform this
service; however, the owner/ operator
can perform this service if desired.
This service is at the discretion and
expense of the snowmobile owner. To
prepare the snowmobile for storage,
Arctic Cat recommends the following
procedure:
1. Clean the seat cushion with a
damp cloth and Arctic Cat Vinyl
Protectant (p/n 0638-313).
2. Clean the snowmobile thoroughly
by hosing dirt, oil, grass, and
other foreign matter from the skid
frame, tunnel, hood, and belly
pan. Allow the snowmobile to dry
thoroughly. DO NOT get water
into any part of the engine.
NOTE: On 4-stroke models,
change the engine oil and clean
the air filter; then proceed to step
9.
3. Place the rear of the snowmobile
up on a shielded safety stand.
4. On the 500/600/800/1000 cc
engine models, start the engine
and allow to idle. With the engine
idling, pry the intake boot for-
ward; then spray Arctic Cat
Engine Storage Preserver (p/n
0436-888) into the intakes until
the engine exhaust starts to smoke
heavily or until the engine starts
to drop in RPM. Turn engine off.
NOTE: On the 500/600/800/1000
cc engine models after step 4,
proceed to step 9.
NOTE: On some standard mod-
els, the air-intake silencer is a
one-piece unit, and the silencer
boot(s) can be removed to access
the intake bore(s). Remove the
boots; then proceed to step 8.
NOTE: On some standard mod-
els, the air-intake silencer
includes a cover/tool tray assem-
bly and a baffle/resonator, and the
silencer boot cannot be removed
to access the intake bores. Pro-
ceed to step 5.
5. Open the air-intake silencer
cover; then remove the Phillips-
head screws securing the cover/
tool tray assembly to the silencer.
6. Close the cover; then tip the
cover/tool tray assembly forward
and out of its slots and remove the
assembly.
7. Using a large flat-blade screw-
driver, remove the baffle/resona-
tor tabs from the air-intake
silencer slots and remove the baf-
fle/resonator to access the intake
bores.
NOTE: The baffle/resonator can
be removed more easily by remov-
ing the back tabs first.
8. Start the engine and allow to idle.
With the engine idling, spray Arc-
tic Cat Engine Storage Preserver
(p/n 0436-888) into the intake(s)
until the engine exhaust starts to
smoke heavily or until the engine
starts to drop in RPM. Turn
engine off.
NOTE: On some models, install
the air-intake silencer boot(s); on
some models, install the baffle/
resonator and the cover/tool tray
assembly.
