2. 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.
Changing Brake Fluid
The brake fluid must be changed on a
regular basis and whenever the brake
fluid has been overheated or contami-
nated. The brake fluid should be changed
every 1000 miles or at the end of the
snowmobiling season, whichever occurs
first. Take the snowmobile to an autho-
rized Arctic Cat Snowmobile dealer for
this service. This service is at the discre-
tion and expense of the snowmobile
owner.
Checking Brake Lever
Travel
Before each use, check the brake lever
travel using the following procedure:
1. Compress the brake lever fully.
NOTE: Do not pump the brake
lever as it will produce an inaccurate
reading.
2. Measure the distance between the brake
lever and the handlebar. The distance
must be greater than 2.54 cm (1 in.).

3. If the resultant distance is less than
specified, take the snowmobile to an
authorized Arctic Cat Snowmobile
dealer for service. If not under war-
ranty, this service is at the discretion
and expense of the snowmobile owner.
Bleeding Brake System
If the brake lever feels spongy when
applied, the brake system may need to be
bled. To bleed the brake, use the follow-
ing procedure:
NOTE: The brake system may be
bled by the snowmobile owner if
qualified to do so. If the owner does
not feel qualified, take the snowmo-
bile to an authorized Arctic Cat
Snowmobile dealer for this service.
This service is at the discretion and
expense of the snowmobile owner.
1. Remove the reservoir cover and (if
necessary) fill the reservoir to the
high brake fluid mark with Arctic
Cat approved DOT 4 brake fluid.
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 DOT 4 brake fluid. Never
substitute or mix different types or
grades of brake fluid. Brake loss can
result. Brake loss can result in severe
injury or even death.
! WARNING
Do not operate the snowmobile if the
compressed distance between the
brake lever and the handlebar is less
than 2.54 cm (1 in.). Brake loss may
occur. Brake loss can result in severe
personal injury.
CAUTION
Brake fluid is highly corrosive. Do not
spill brake fluid on any surface of the
snowmobile.
