7.6 Stopping the Snowdog
To stop the Snowdog, cut the throttle. The Snowdog will
slow down and eventually stop.
To shut down the engine in case of emergency, flip the
ignition switch located on the handle switch assembly on
the left side of the handlebar to “OFF” position or pull out
the engine security switch. When the Snowdog stops, switch
the parking brake on. When the Snowdog is stopped and
the parking brake is on, you can switch off the engine. When
stopping for more than 10 minutes, close the fuel lock. Turn
off the headlight. Switch off any accessories or electrical
devices that may consume power from the battery. When
it is raining or snowing, or the temperature is close to 32 °F
(0°С) or lower, it is necessary to protect the Snowdog with
cover for the time of parking. Otherwise, snow and water
may freeze on engine control levers and other parts of the
Snowdog making controlling the Snowdog impossible.
If Snowdog is used in water or wet snow conditions then
parked in freezing temperatures, water left in the drive
components can freeze resulting in inability of the machine
to move. Clear built-up snow from machine before it is left
unused in freezing temperatures.
7.7 Inspection and maintenance after operation
1. Close the fuel lock.
2. Switch off the ignition.
3. Switch off the headlight.
4. Unload the Snowdog. Do not leave it loaded to
prolong the life of the suspension springs.
5. Clean the Snowdog of any snow, ice, branches,
leaves or dirt.
6. Check the chain tension. If necessary, lubricate and
tighten the chain.
!
Warning
It is recommended to use aerosol lubricants
designed for motorcycle chains.
7. Check the condition of the driving and the driven
sprockets.
8. Carefully inspect the CVT. Clean up, if necessary.
9. Check the condition of the plastic inserts in the CVT
and lubricate them. If plastic inserts are missing,
damaged or worn out, replace with new ones.
10. Visually check the track tension. If necessary,
tighten the track.
11. Visually inspect the Snowdog for leakage (fuel, oil).
12. Check the bogies and sliders (if available).

Warning
Please read the Briggs & Stratton engine user’s
manual carefully before using Snowdog. All the
information on engine maintenance contained
in this manual serves as guidelines. If the
maintenance instructions in this Snowdog
owner’s manual are different from those in the
Briggs & Stratton engine user’s manual, follow the

8.1 Engine oil
Recommended oil
Use engine oil that meets or exceeds SJ or SL standards of
API. Do not use special additives. Always check the API
service mark on the oil container to be sure it contains the
letters SJ, SL or equivalent.
8.1.1 Checking oil level
Oil level should be checked with the engine shut off and on
a horizontal surface.
1. Take the dipstick off and wipe it clean.
2. Put the dipstick into the oil fill neck to measure the
oil level, but do not tighten it. Take the dipstick out
and check the oil level.
3. If the oil level is near or lower the minimum mark on
the dipstick, add the recommended oil to the upper
mark level (lower edge of the oil fill). Do not pour oil
above the level.
4. Put the dipstick back.
