Operator Safety

ce and Snow Build-up

Before driving, manually turn the skis to the left and right to be sure ice

and snow are not interfering with full left and right steering. If difficulty

is encountered, remove ice and snow build-up that may be obstructing

the steering linkage.

NOTE:

If your snowmobile is equipped with RIDER SELECT, perform this

check in both the full up and full down steering positions.

Driving Downhill

When riding downhill, shift your weight to the rear of the snowmobile

and reduce your speed to a minimum. Apply just enough throttle to keep

the clutch engaged, allowing the engine’s compression to help slow the

snowmobile and keep it from rolling freely downhill.

WARNING

Ice and snow build-up may interfere with the steering of your snowmobile,

resulting in serious injury or death. Keep the underhood area free of snow

and ice.

WARNING

When driving on long downhill stretches, pump the brakes. Riding the brakes

may cause the brake system to overheat, which may result in brake failure.
Excessive or repetitive use of the brakes for high speed stops will also cause

an overheated brake system. This condition may lead to a sudden loss of

brakes and/or fire and may result in serious injury or death.
