Carbide Skags
A skag is a replaceable bar attached to the underside of the ski to assist
in turning the snowmobile and to prevent ski wear caused by contact
with roads and other bare terrain.
Inspect skags frequently. Worn skags may reduce steering and braking
control on hard-packed snow and ice. Replace worn skags to maintain
proper balance and vehicle control.
Accessories
Polaris offers a wide range of accessories for your snowmobile to help
make each ride more enjoyable.
Use only Polaris parts and accessories on your Polaris snowmobile. Use
of unapproved parts and accessories may result in:
• Non-compliance with government/industry requirements
• Voiding of warranty
• Injury to self or others
This applies, but is not limited to the following areas: brakes, clutches,
fuel systems, and exhaust systems.
NOTE: Exhaust systems are critical safety areas that must use approved
Polaris parts. Please see your Polaris dealer for service.
WARNING
Loss of control can result in serious personal injury or death. Proper balance
of traction products on the skis and track must be maintained to obtain proper
vehicle control on hard-packed snow or ice. See your dealer for assistance.
