Important Safety Rules

WARNING
To prevent serious injury to indi-
viduals near the snowmobile:
– NEVER stand behind or near a
moving track.
– Always use a wide-base snow-
mobile stand with a rear deflec-
tor panel.
– When the track is raised off the
ground, only run it at the lowest
possible speed.
Centrifugal force could cause de-
bris,
damaged or loose studs,
pieces of torn track, or an en-
tire severed track to be violently
thrown backwards out of the tun-
nel with tremendous force, possi-
bly resulting in the loss of a leg or
other serious injury.
Effects of Having a
Studded Track on the Life
of the Snowmobile
The use of traction enhancing prod-
ucts can increase the load and the
stress on certain snowmobile compo-
nents, as well as the vibration lev-
el. This can cause premature wear on
parts such as belts, brake linings, bear-
ings, chain, chaincase sprocket, and
on approved studded tracks, shorten
track life. Always proceed with a visu-
al inspection of your track before each
use. For more information, refer to
TRACK CONDITION section further in
this guide.
Studs on the track can also cause se-
rious damage to your snowmobile if it
is not equipped with the tunnel protec-
tors designed for your particular mod-
el. Damage to the electrical wiring or
perforation of the heat exchangers are
potential hazards, that could cause the
engine to overheat and be severely
damaged.

WARNING
If tunnel protectors are excessively
worn or not installed, the gas tank
could be punctured, causing a fire.
CAUTION: Ask your dealer for the
appropriate tunnel protectors mod-
el and kit number required for your
snowmobile.
NOTE: Consult the BRP limited war-
ranty to find out what warranty limita-
tions are related to the use of studs.
Installation of Studs on
BRP Approved Tracks

WARNING
Never stud a track that has not
been approved for studs.
Ap-
proved tracks can be identified by
a stud symbol (see illustration be-
low) molded into the track surface.
Installing studs on an unapproved
track could increase the risk of the
track tearing or severing, possibly
resulting in serious injury or death.

APPROVED TRACKS CAN BE IDENTIFIED
BY THIS SYMBOL
To ensure safe and proper installation,
BRP recommends to have the studs
installed by your dealer.
– Use only the BRP approved special
studs.
– Never use studs that exceed the
height of your snowmobile’s track
profile by more than 9.5 mm (3/8 in).
