Check track condition at the intervals outlined in the periodic
maintenance chart beginning on page 50.
1. Support the rear of the
snowmobile slightly off the
ground with an appropriate
snowmobile support.
2. Rotate the track by hand to
check for wear or damage.
3. Carefully examine the
track along the entire
length of each track rod,
bending the track and
inspecting for breakage.
TIP:
The three most common
places where breakage
occurs are shown in the
illustration.
4. Check the track clips and
tighten any loose clips. If
any rod damage is found, install a new track.
TIP:
This snowmobile track has molded-in track clips. It is common for a thin
layer of rubber to detach from the clip area and peel off during initial use.

personal injury if the track should
being to move. Never inspect the
track with the engine running. Never
