Overload Springs
NOTE: Yamaha recommends that
the overload springs be engaged
whenever a load on the snowmobile
(operator/cargo) exceeds 136 kg
(300 lb).
To either engage or disengage the spring
tension blocks, use a spark plug socket
and a screwdriver to adjust the spring
block to the desired position. Make sure
both spring blocks are in the same posi-
tion (either engaged or disengaged).

CAUTION
Never force the adjustment cams
from the low position to the high
position. Cam damage may occur.
CAUTION
There are weight limitations for these
snowmobiles. If additional cargo is
being added, maximum weight on the
snowmobile (operator/cargo) should
not exceed 170 kg (375 lb). Also, the
overload springs should be engaged.
