SAFETY

Operator Safety

Stay Away From Moving Parts

WARNING

Never hold the snowmobile up or stand

behind it while warming up the track. A

loose track or flying debris could cause

serious personal injury or death.
We recommend having your dealer

perform track service and alignment

procedures.

Be alert when riding, and remain properly seated to stay clear of the

track. Your snowmobile is propelled by a revolving track that must be

partially exposed for proper operation. Serious injuries may result if

hands, feet, or clothing become entangled in the track.

WARNING

If fingers or clothing contact the moving parts of an engine,

serious injury can result. Always stop the engine before

attempting adjustments.

Never attempt adjustments with the engine running. Turn off the

ignition, raise the hood, make the adjustment, secure shields and

guards, secure the hood, and then restart the engine to check its

operation.

Riding Position

WARNING

Improper riding position may seriously reduce your ability to

control the machine and may result in serious injury or death.

Always be properly seated and in position to control your vehicle.

Operating a snowmobile requires skill and balance for proper control.

Rider positions may vary from person to person as each becomes more

skilled; but under most conditions, the proper position is to be seated

with feet on the running boards, and comfortably positioned for proper

throttle, brake, and steering control.
