THE PERFECT FIT
Traction Products
Studs
Before equipping your machine with traction products, be aware of the
laws in your area pertaining to the use of traction products.
Use only POLARIS traction products on your snowmobile. Track war-
ranties are void if track damage or failure results from improper or
excessive stud installation or the use of non-POLARIS traction prod-
ucts.
See your dealer about installing studs and/or carbides.
NOTICE: Always install wear strips before installing studs. Failure to install wear
strips may result in cooler or tunnel damage. See page 39.
Never add shims to the wear strip. Track damage will result because
of lack of clearance between upper carrier wheels and track.
Use of studs longer than the recommended length on machines
equipped with center coolers will result in center cooler damage or
damage to the tunnel.
Track studding will enhance braking control on hard-packed snow or
ice, but extreme caution is still required on such surfaces. Steering abil-
ity may be reduced on hard-packed snow or ice.
When studded tracks are used, increased wear to the brake pads will
result from increased braking. Extended-wear brake pad kits are avail-
able. See your dealer.
NOTICE: Aggressive studding patterns may require grinding protruding stud
bolts flush to prevent idler wheel damage. Maintain track tension on
studded tracks on the tight side of the spec to prevent heat exchanger
damage. The center of the stud must be at least 1 1/8
I
(2.86 cm) from
the outside edge of the track.
