60 MAINTENANCE
3. If the distance between the bottom
of the wear strip and the inside sur-
face of the track is less than speci-
fied, loosen the adjusting bolts to
increase the slack in the track.
4. Check track alignment (see Track
Alignment sub-section).
5. When proper track tension is
obtained, tighten the adjusting bolt
jam nuts against the axle housings.

NOTE: Since track tension and
track alignment are interrelated,
always check both even if only one
adjustment seems necessary.
TRACK ALIGNMENT
Proper track alignment is obtained
when the rear idler wheels are equal
distance from the inner track drive
lugs. Excessive wear to the idler
wheels, drive lugs, and track will occur
if the track is improperly aligned. Arc-
tic Cat recommends that the track
alignment be checked once a week or
whenever the track tension is adjusted.
Checking Track
Alignment
1. Remove excess ice and snow
buildup from the track, track drive
sprockets, and the inside of the
skid frame.
2. Position the tips of the skis against
a wall; then using a shielded safety
stand, raise the rear of the snow-
mobile off the floor making sure
the track is free to rotate.
3. Start the engine and accelerate
slightly. Use only enough throttle
to turn the track several revolu-
tions. SHUT ENGINE OFF.

NOTE: Allow the track to coast to
a stop. DO NOT apply the brake
because it could produce an inac-
curate alignment condition.
4. When the track stops rotating,
check the relationship of the rear
idler wheels and the inner track
drive lugs. If the rear idler wheels
are centered between the inner
track drive lugs, no adjustment is
necessary.
! WARNING
If jam nuts are not tightened prop-
erly, the adjusting bolts could
loosen causing the track to
become extremely loose and,
under some operating conditions,
allow the idler wheels to climb over
the track lugs forcing the track
against the tunnel causing the
track to “lock.” If a track “locks”
during operation, severe personal
injury could result.
! WARNING
Make sure the ignition key is in the
OFF position and the track is not
rotating before checking or adjust-
ing track alignment. Personal
injury could result if contact is
made with a rotating track.
! WARNING
The tips of the skis must be posi-
tioned against a wall or similar
object.
! WARNING
DO NOT stand behind the snowmo-
bile or near the rotating track.
NEVER run the track at high speed
when the track is suspended.
