Operation Warnings

n

Check surroundings

Make sure the operation area is clear of obstacles and bystanders. Some 

sideways movement is possible when the snowmobile first begins to 

move, and debris may be thrown by the track. Teach the operator to 

check the operating area before riding.

n

Sit properly on the snowmobile

Operating a snowmobile requires skill and balance for proper control. 

An improper position can reduce the child's ability to control the snow-

mobile. The riding position may vary as the operator becomes more 

skilled, but under most conditions the proper position is to be seated 

with both feet on the running boards, in a comfortable position for 

proper throttle, brake and steering control.

WARNING

This snowmobile is propelled by a revolving track, which must be partially 

exposed for proper operation. Serious injuries may be caused by operator 

carelessness, resulting in hands, feet, hair or clothing becoming entangled in 

the track. Teach the child to respect this machine and all moving parts. Teach 

the child that being properly seated is the safest way to stay clear of the track.

WARNING

Never hold the snowmobile up or 

stand behind it while warming up 

the track. A loose track or flying 

debris could cause serious per-

sonal injury or death.
