CAUTION:
Supplied pin switch for the clutch side body panel cover and
bypass toggle switch must be installed for proper operation. These
are very important safety features and without them properly
installed serious injury can occur. If either of these switches are not
installed or they are bypassed, it is at the user's own risk. When the
clutch cover pin switch is closed (grounded) it will disable the
SledStart system. It should be mounted and adjusted so that when
the body panel is mounted to the snowmobile the pin switch is
pushed in (open) and will allow SledStart to operate normally. The
pin switch mounting bracket and pin switch itself have plenty of
adjustment for any application. Our website shows various mount-
ing locations on different models of snowmobiles. Installation is
simple so please be sure this switch is mounted. The bypass toggle
switch will perform the same cutoff function disabling SledStart
from operation when the switch is in the off position. This switch
should always be in the off position along with disconnecting the
snowmobile battery when any service is being performed on the
snowmobile. A surprise start at the wrong time can make for a very
bad day. Please install both of these switches.
STEP 1
Remove necessary body panels to locate the battery of the snowmobile.
With a Phillips screwdriver, remove the negative and positive leads to the
battery being careful not to lose the square nuts in the battery terminal
housings. It is a good idea to insert the bolts back into the battery and be
sure the positive and negative leads are pushed out away from the bat-
tery. You will be adding the appropriate connectors from the SledStart mod-
ule to these terminals later in this section.
STEP 2
Remove the necessary body panels to locate (depending on the model)
the 4 or 6-pin connector from the key switch. This connector should have
a red/white wire, a brown/white wire, a brown wire, and a red wire on the
key side of the connector and a blue/white wire, a black wire, a brown
wire and a red/yellow wire on the harness side of the connector. Unplug
the connector and locate the blue/white wire and the brown wire from the
SledStart harness with the matching male/female piggyback attached. In-
sert the male connector from SledStart into the female connector on the
key switch side of the snowmobile harness. Next plug the female con-
nector from SledStart into the male connector on the snowmobile harness
side. Secure all connectors and the piggyback so they will not bounce
excessively.
