PREPARATION AFTER STORAGE
PREPARATION AFTER STORAGE
Taking the snowmobile out of storage
and correctly preparing it for another
season will assure many miles and
hours of trouble-free snowmobiling.
Arctic Cat recommends the following
procedure:
1. Clean the snowmobile thor-
oughly. Polish the exterior of the
snowmobile.
2. Clean the engine. Remove the
cloth from the exhaust system.
Check exhaust system and air-
intake silencer/air filter for
obstructions.
3. Inspect all control wires and
cables for signs of wear or fray-
ing. Replace if necessary. Use
cable ties or tape to route wires
and cables away from hot or rotat-
ing parts.
4. Inspect the drive belt for cracks
and tears. Check belt specifica-
tions. 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.
5. On carbureted models, inspect the
in-line fuel filter and replace if
necessary.
6. Inspect all fuel hoses and oil
hoses for deterioration or cracks;
replace if necessary. Make sure all
connections are tight; then on 2-
stroke models, fill the oil-injec-
tion reservoir with the recom-
mended 2-cycle oil (see Gasoline-
Oil sub-section).
NOTE: After prolonged storage
of 2-stroke models, Arctic Cat rec-
ommends one tankful of 100:1
gas/oil mixture be used in con-
junction with the oil-injection sys-
tem to ensure proper lubrication.
7. On 2-stroke and 660 cc models,
inspect the spark plugs. Replace,
gap, or clean as necessary.
8. Verify the condition of and the
adjustment of the carburetor(s)
and choke cable on carbureted
models and throttle cable on all
models.
9. Tighten all nuts, bolts, and cap
screws making sure all calibrated
nuts, bolts, and cap screws are
tightened to specifications.
10. Lubricate the rear suspension,
spindles, speedometer drive
adapter, and driven shaft support
bearing with a low-temperature
grease.
11. On liquid cooled models, check
the coolant level and all coolant
hoses and connections for deterio-
ration or cracks. Add properly
mixed coolant as necessary.
! CAUTION
On carbureted models if the gas
in each carburetor float chamber
was not drained prior to storage,
the carburetor(s) must be cleaned
before starting the engine.
! WARNING
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 slide not
to return to the full-closed posi-
tion.
