VARYING ALTITUDE
OPERATION
Operating a snowmobile at varying
altitudes requires changes in perfor-
mance components. These changes
affect drive train components (on all
models) and carburetion compo-
nents (on carbureted models).
The altitude information decal is
located beneath the hood of the
snowmobile. On carbureted models,
the information is incorporated into
the Main Jet Chart decal.
NOTE: Just as important as cal-
i b r a t i n g t h e s n o w m o b i l e fo r
higher altitudes is recalibrating
the snowmobile when going to
lower altitudes. Always consult
the altitude decal beneath the
hood of the snowmobile.
Crossfire, M-Series, and King Cat
models are initially set up at the fac-
tory for operation between 6000-
9000 feet.
NOTE: Carburetion and drive
train changes can be made by the
snowmobile owner if qualified to
do so. If the owner does not feel
qualified, 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
.
! CAUTION
On carbureted models, care-
fully follow the Main Jet Chart
recommendations for proper
main jet selection for altitude,
temperature, and gasoline being
used.
! CAUTION
On the ZR 900 and King Cat, the
CDI must be replaced or repro-
grammed for altitude change.
