STORAGE
Long-term storage requires some preven-
tive procedures to guard against deteriora-
tion.
1. Cleaning
Thoroughly clean the snowmobile, inside
and out, to remove the corrosive salts and
acids that can accumulate. Use Yamaha
Mud, Grease, and Engine Cleaner, or an
equivalent product, to loosen mud, grease,
and grime. Wash with mild soap, then rinse
and dry completely.
2. Lubrication
Lubricate moving parts, suspension link-
age, and pivot points. Use the grease or
lubricant specified in the MAINTENANCE
section, or Yamaha Lube-Zall general-pur-
pose lubricant. Proper lubrication fights
corrosion while it reduces friction.
3. Fuel system
Add Yamaha Fuel Stabilizer and Condi-
tioner, or an equivalent stabilizer, to the
fuel tank to help prevent fuel oxidation and
gum and varnish deposits, and to inhibit
corrosion in the fuel system and injectors.
In areas where oxygenated fuel (gasohol)
is used, consult a Yamaha dealer.
4. Engine
Proper storage of the engine is essential to
prevent costly rust and corrosion damage
to internal engine components. This is
more important in areas where oxygenated
fuel (gasohol) is used, because the alcohol
content in the fuel increases the chance for
water to enter the engine. Use Yamaha
Stor-Rite Engine Fogging Oil, or an equiva-
lent fogging oil, to protect both the com-
bustion chamber and crankshaft from
corrosion. An alternate method is to
remove the intake silencer and squirt oil
into the throttle bodies while the engine is
running.
CAUTION:
@
Do not attempt to store the snowmobile
by simply starting the engine occasion-
ally during the storage period. This can
cause more harm than good! Moisture
and acids form during combustion
which can actually increase the chance
for corrosion damage during the stor-
age period.
@
5. Surface protection
Apply a coat of wax to painted surfaces.
Apply suitable protectants to the exterior of
the engine, drive track, and to other metal,
plastic, and rubber parts.
6. Battery
Remove the battery from the snowmobile.
Store it in a cool, dry place that is above
0 °C (32 °F), but less than 30 °C (90 °F).
Check the condition of the battery once a
month, and charge it as necessary.
WARNING
@
●
Never smoke around the battery
while it is being charged. Sparks
may ignite the hydrogen gas created
by the battery.
●
Never connect the battery to or dis-
connect it from the snowmobile
while it is being charged. Sparks
may ignite the hydrogen gas created
by the battery.
●
Make sure that the battery terminals
are tight.
