Operating Instructions
Starting and Stopping
Engine
It is imperative that the brake system be
checked for wear and proper operation
and that all safety checks found in the
accompanying Snowmobile Safety
Handbook be performed before attempt-
ing to start the engine. After the engine
has been started, check the headlights
(high and low beam), taillight, and brake-
light to be sure they are working properly
and adjusted correctly. Make sure all
lights are clean to provide maximum illu-
mination. The headlight and taillight
must be clean and must be illuminated
whenever the engine is running.
1. Test the operation of the brake system
by compressing the brake lever. The
brake lever must feel firm when com-
pressed; then while holding the brake
lever in the compressed position, mea-
sure the distance between the brake
lever and the handlebar. The distance
must be greater than 2.54 cm (1 in.).
0745-816
2. With the brake fluid reservoir in a
level position and the cover
removed, check the fluid level. The
brake fluid level must be at the high
brake fluid mark in the reservoir.
0745-817
3. If the brake fluid is below the high
brake fluid mark, add Arctic Cat
approved DOT 4 brake fluid until
the fluid is at the recommended
level. Install and secure the reservoir
cover. Do not allow moisture to con-
taminate the brake system.
4. Test the throttle control lever by
completely compressing and releas-
ing it several times. The lever
MUST return to the idle position
quickly and completely.
5. Move the emergency stop switch to
the UP or RUN position.
6. Insert key into ignition switch; then
rotate key to the RUN position.
7. Rotate the key to the START posi-
tion; then when the engine starts,
release the key.
CAUTION
Brake fluid is highly corrosive. Do not
spill brake fluid on any surface of the
snowmobile.
! WARNING
Do not overfill the brake fluid reser-
voir. Overfilling the reservoir may
cause the brake system to hydrauli-
cally lock. Use only Arctic Cat
approved brake fluid.
! WARNING
Do not start the engine if the brake sys-
tem is not functioning properly. Service
the brake system or have it properly
repaired prior to operating the snow-
mobile. Serious personal injury or even
death may occur if the brake system is
not operating properly.
CAUTION
Always check the coolant level before
starting the engine.
CAUTION
Do not continuously run the starter
for more than 5 seconds at a time.
