Pre-Ride Check
You're almost ready to have an adult start your snowmobile. But first
you must do a PRE-RIDE CHECK to make sure the snowmobile is safe
to ride. Every time you want to ride your snowmobile, always have an
adult help you check these things before you start the engine.
n
Throttle Lever
Squeeze the throttle lever toward the handlebar and then let it go. The
lever should go right back to where it was before you squeezed it. If it
goes back slowly or stays close to the handlebar, you have a sticky throt-
tle. This means that something is wrong or broken.
n
Brake Lever
Squeeze the brake lever toward the handlebar and then let it go. The
lever should go right back to where it was before you squeezed it. If it
goes back slowly or stays close to the handlebar, you have a sticky brake
lever. This means that something is wrong or broken.
n
Seat Latches
Check the seat latches. Make sure they are latched tightly.
n
Hood Hold-Down Straps
Check the hood hold-down straps. Make sure they are latched tightly.
n
Track and Skis
Make sure the engine is off, then stand behind the snowmobile and lift
up the rear end. This will free the track if it is frozen to the ground.
Turn the handlebars all the way to the left and to the right. This will turn
the skis to make sure they aren't frozen to the ground.
If any of this is hard to do, have an adult help you.
Don't start the snowmobile until an adult fixes the sticky lever. You
could get hurt if you ride with a sticky throttle.
Don't start the snowmobile until an adult fixes the sticky lever. You
could get hurt if you ride with sticky brakes.
Never check the track or skis when the engine is running. You could
get hurt if the snowmobile moves unexpectedly. Never stand behind or
in front of any snowmobile when the engine is running.
