PREPARATION FOR STORAGE

PREPARATION FOR STORAGE
Prior to storing the snowmobile, it
must be properly serviced to prevent
corrosion and component deterioration.
An authorized Arctic Cat Snowmobile
dealer should perform this service;
however, the owner/ operator can per-
form this service if desired. This ser-
vice 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 a Vinyl Protectant.
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 thor-
oughly. 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
6.
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 forward;
then spray an Engine Storage Pre-
server into the intakes until the
engine exhaust starts to smoke
heavily or until the engine starts to
drop in RPM. Turn engine off.
Install the intake boot.
5. On the 570 cc engine models,
carefully pry the intake boots par-
tially over the carburetor inlets;
then start the engine and allow to
idle. With the engine idling, spray
an Engine Storage Preserver into
the intakes until the engine exhaust
starts to smoke heavily or until the
engine starts to drop in RPM. Turn
engine off. Install the intake boots.
6. Plug the exhaust system outlet
with a clean cloth.
7. With the ignition switch in the
OFF position:
A. Disconnect the high tension
leads from the spark plugs;
then remove the plugs, connect
them to the leads, and ground
them on the cylinder heads.
B. Pour 29.5 ml (1 fl oz) of SAE
#30 petroleum-based oil into
each spark plug hole and pull
the recoil starter handle slowly
about 10 times.
C. Install the spark plugs and con-
nect the high tension leads.
! CAUTION
Do not run the engine without the
belt guard in place and secured.
! CAUTION
Do not do step 7 on the 4-stroke
models; severe engine damage
could result.
! CAUTION
Never crank the engine over with-
out grounding the spark plugs.
Damage to coils and/or CDI/ECU
unit may result.
