Track
Depending on the model of snowmobile that you own, your vehicle
may come with a track for which the manufacturer permits the in-
stallation of studs, or a track for which the manufacturer forbids it.
Tracks approved for the installation of studs have a stud symbol (see
illustration) molded into the track surface, and tracks not approved
bear a forbidden stud symbol (see illustration). Before proceeding
to the installation of studs on tracks for which it is allowed, you must
first acquaint yourself with the safety instructions related to the stud-
ding of tracks, found in the section entitled TRACTION ENHANCING
PRODUCTS in the SAFETY INFORMATION section at the beginning
of this guide. This section also provides other important information
that you must consider before having studs installed on a track.

Generally, snowmobiles adapted for mountain riding comes with
tracks equipped with high lug profiles. These tracks are optimized
for operation on loose snow. Running those tracks on hard packed
surfaces put more stress on the lugs, which tend to heat up as a
result. Avoid riding a snowmobile equipped with a high lug profiles
track in a trail or on hard surfaces for an extended period of time to
avoid potential degradation or damage to the track.
For general instructions on maintenance of tracks, refer to the sec-
tions TRACK CONDITION and TRACK TENSION AND ALIGNMENT
in the MAINTENANCE section of this guide.
