OPERATOR'S MANUAL

14 GENERAL INFORMATION
Low Oil Warning Light
(Crossfire/F-Series/M-
Series Models)
The Low Oil Warning Light is
designed to alert the snowmobile
operator when the oil in the oil injec-
tion reservoir gets below a prescribed
level; however, it is highly recom-
mended that a visual verification of
the oil level in the reservoir be done
prior to operating the snowmobile.
Once the Low Oil Warning Light illu-
minates during operation of the snow-
mobile, the operator must periodically
monitor the level of oil in the reservoir
and must fill the reservoir the next
time gasoline is added to the gas tank.
The “alert level” of the Low Oil Warn-
ing Light is approximately equal to 1
tankful of gasoline under normal oper-
ating conditions.
Oil Pressure Warning
Light (Jaguar Z1/660
cc Turbo Models)
The Oil Pressure Warning Light indi-
cates engine oil pressure, not the oil
level; however, if the oil level is low, it
may affect oil pressure.
The light should illuminate each time
the ignition switch is turned to RUN
or START, and it should go out when
the engine starts. If the light illumi-
nates while the engine is running, oil
pressure has been lost and the engine
will automatically shut off.
If oil pressure is lost, use the following
procedure to check the oil level:
 NOTE: On the 660 cc Turbo
models, to ensure an accurate
reading, the snwomobile should
be on level ground.
1. On the 660 cc Turbo models,
check the oil level. If the oil level
is below the lower mark on the oil
level stick, add only enough rec-
ommended oil to raise the level
between the upper and lower
marks. DO NOT overfill the
crankcase with oil.
2. On the Jaguar Z1 with the engine
off, remove the engine oil level
stick and wipe it clean. Without
screwing it in, set the stick back
in the oil tank. Remove it and
observe the oil level on the stick.
If the oil level is at or below the
ADD mark on the oil level stick,
add only enough recommended
oil to raise the level to the NOR-
MAL range. DO NOT overfill the
reservoir with oil.
3. On the Jaguar Z1, open the air
bleed bolt located on the oil pump
(beneath the coolant tank) to
purge air from the oil hose.
! CAUTION
At this point, take precautionary
measures such as changing to
loose snow terrain, shutting the
engine off (allowing the engine to
cool down), and checking cool-
ant level. If unable to either deter-
mine or remedy the problem,
take the snowmobile to an autho-
rized Arctic Cat Snowmobile
dealer for service.
