BREAK-IN PERIOD

With Bombardier-Rotax snowmobileengines, a break-in period is requiredbefore running the vehicle at full throt­tle. Engine's manufacturer recommen­dation is 10 to 15operating hours. Dur­ing this period, a richer mixture isneeded (i.e, 40 parts of gas for 1 part of50/1 Bombardier oil). Maximum throt­tle should not exceed 3/4, however,brief full acceleration and speed varia­tions contribute to a good break-in.Continued wide open throttle accelera­tions, prolonged cruising speeds, andlugging are detrimental during thebreak-in period.

1D-Hour InspectionAs with any precision piece of mechan­ical equipement, we suggest that alterthe first 10 hours of operation or 30days after the purchase, whichevercomes first, that your vehicle be check­ed by your dealer. This inspection willgive you the opportunity to discuss theunanswered questions you mat haveencountered during the first hours ofoperation. Remember that it is easierto remedy at this time than to allow thesnowmobile to operate until a possiblefailure occurs.

The 10 hours inspection is at the ex­pense of the vehicle owner.

FUEL MIXING

Oil must be added to the gasoline inpre-measured amounts then both oiland gasoline should be thoroughlymixed together before fueling the tank.

Recommended GasolineUse regular leaded gasoline availablefrom all service stations._ CAUTION: Never experiment.. with different fuel or fuel ratios.

Never use naphtha, methanol or similarproducts.

Recommended OilUse concentrated Bombardier snow­mobile oil available from your dealer.This type of oil has specially formu­lated oil bases to meet the lubricationrequirements of the Bombardier-Rotaxengine.

If Bombardier snowmobile oil is un­available substitute with a high-quality2 cycle snowmobile oil. The oil/gasmix must meet the vehicle re­quirements. See oil manufacturerrecommendations on the container.

_ CAUTION: Never use outboard... or straight mineral oils.

Fuel Mixture RatioThe importance of using the correctfuel mixture cannot be overstressed.An incorrect fuel ratio results in seriousengine damage. Recommended fuelratio is 50/1. (4011 during brake inperiod).

S.1. Units500 mL oil to 25 liters 5011.Imperial Units1 can 16 02 oil to 5 Imp. gals = 50/1.

or

1 can 500 mL oil to 5 1/2 Imp. gals =50/1.U.S. Units1 can 12 02 oil to 5 U.S. gals 50/1.

O NOTE: To facilitate fuel mixing oilshould be kept at room tempera­

ture.

8

Fuel Mixing ProcedureTo mix the gasoline and oil always usea separate clean container. Never mixdirectly in your snowmobile tank. Forbest results, acquire two containers,either plastic or metal. Draw from oneuntil empty then use the second one.

..WARNING: Gasoline is flamma­~ ble and explosive under certainconditions. Always perform pro­cedures in a well ventilated area. Donot smoke or allow open flames orsparks in the vicinity. If gasoline fumesare noticed while driving, the causeshould be determined and correctedwithout delay. Never add fuel while theengine is running. Avoid skin contactwith fuel at below freezing tempera­ture.

1. Pour approximately one gallon ofgasoline into a clean container.

2. Add the full amount of oil.

3. Replace the container cap andshake the container thoroughly.

4. Add the remainder of the gasoline.

6. Once again thoroughly agitate thecontainer. Then using a funnel witha fine mesh screen to prevent theentry of water and foreign particles,pour the mixture into the snow­mobile tank.

A WARNING: To prevent fuel spill­.... age in the engine compartment, afunnel must always be used when fill­ing the gas tank.

a NOTE: When using pre-mixedfuel, always shake the container

thoroughly as the oil has a tendency tosettle.

A WARNING: Never 'top up' the.... gas tank before placing vehiclein a warm area. At certain tempera­tures, gasoline will expand andoverflow. Always wipe off any gasolinespillage from the snowmobile.

PRE-START CHECK

Check Points• Activate the throttle control lever

several times to check that it oper­ates easily and smoothly. The throt­tle control lever must return to idleposition when released.

• Check fuel level.• Check that the skis and the track are

not frozen to the grou nd or snowsurface and that the steering oper­ates freely.

• Activate the brake control lever andmake sure the brake fully applies be­fore the brake control lever touchesthe handlebar grip.

• Verify that the path ahead of the ve­hicle is clear of bystanders and ob­stacles.

A WARNING: Only start your snow­.... mobile once all components arechecked and functioning properly.

~ CAUTION: If spark plug condi­.. tion is not ideal, contact your au­

thorized dealer.

Check spark plug gap using a wirefeeler gauge.

Reinstall plugs and connect wires.

(W2) Suspension ConditionVisually inspect all suspension compo­nents including slider shoes, springs,wheels, etc ...

O NOTE: During normal driving,snow will act as a lubricant and

coolant for the slider shoes. Extensiveriding on ice or sanded snow, (not tomention dirt, asphalt, etc. never re­commended) will create excessive heatbuild-up and cause premature slidershoe wear.

(W3) Track ConditionLift the rear of the vehicle and supportit off the ground. With the engine off,rotate the track by hand, and inspectcondition. If worn, cut or track fibersare exposed or missing or defective in­serts or guides are noted, contact yourdealer.

...WARNING: Do not operate a

..snowmobile with a cut, torn ordamaged track.

(W4) Track Tension andAlignmentThe suspension is adjustable, the frontadjustment for surface condition, therear for driver's weight.

When the front adjuster blocks are atthe lowest elevation more weight isdistributed on the skis. At the highestposition the weight is transferred to thetrack. The rear adjuster blocks shouldbe adjusted to suit the driver'spreference.

Adjuster blocks

~ CAUTION: Always turn the left.. side adjuster blocks in a clock­

wise direction, the right side blocksin acounter-clockwise direction. Left andright adjuster blocks of each adjust­ment must always be set at the sameelevation.Lift the rear of vehicle and support witha mechanical stand. Allow the slide toextend normally. Check the gap 13 mm(1/2") between the slider shoe and thebottom inside of the track. If the tracktension is too loose, the track will havea tendency to thump.

_ CAUTION: Too much tension.. will result in power loss and ex­

cessive stresses on suspension com­ponents.

13

If necessary to adjust, loosen the rearidler wheel retaining screw and thenloosen or tighten the adjuster bolts lo­cated on the inner side of the rear idlerwheels. If correct tension is unat­tainable. Contact your dealer.

O NOTE: Track tension and align­ment are inter-related. Do not ad­

just one without the other.

Start the engine and accelerate slightlyso that the track turns slowly. Checkthat the track is well centered; equaldistance on both sides between edgesof track guides and slider shoes.

...WARNING: Before checking",. track alignment, ensure that thetrack is free of all particles which couldbe thrown out while track is rotating.Keep hands, tools, feet and clothingclear of track. Ensure no-one is stand­ing in close proximity to the vehicle.

To correct, stop the engine, loosen therear idler wheels retaining screws thenloosen the lock nuts and tighten theadjuster bolt on the side where theslider shoe is the furthest to the trackinsert guides.

Q: I bought my snowmobile in 0' King County but I snowmobile in WashingtonCounty. Can the dealer in Washington County accept to perform warranty workon my snowmobile?

A: Yes, any authorized dealer in North America can perform warranty repairs,providing the customer warranty registration card is presented.

Q: Where can I find information on the lubrication and maintenance of my snow­mobile?

A: In this Operator Manual provided with the vehicle at the time of first sale.

Q: Will the entire warranty be void or cancelled, if I do not operate or maintain mynew snowmobile exactly as specified in the Operator's Manual?

A: The warranty of the new snowmobile cannot be "Voided" or Cancelled".However, if a particular failure is caused by operation or maintenance otherthan is shown in the Operator Manual, that failure may not be covered underwarranty. This includes service work performed by the customer, especiallythe critical adjustments to ignition, timing, cerburetion and oil injection/or oilmixture.

Q: Would you give some examples ot abnormal use or strain, neglect or abuse?

A: These terms are general and overlap each other in areas. Some specific ex­amples may include: running the machine out of oil, sustained high r.p. m. fullthrottle use, chain failure caused by a lack of lubrication and/or adjustments,operating the machine with a broken or damaged part which causes anotherpart to fail, and so on.
