SAFETY INFORMATION ______ SAFETY INFORMATION _____ 7
INTRODUCTION Everyone is a beginner the first time he sits behind the controls of a snowmobile regardless of previous experience in driving an automobile, a motorcycle or a motorboat. The safe use of your snowmobile is dependent on many conditions such as visibility, speed, weather, environment, traffic, vehicle condition and the condition of the driver. Each operator has a responsibility to ensure the safety of his/her passenger, if any, and of other recreationists or bystanders.
IMPORTANT BASIC SAFETY MEASURES Training Basic training is required for the safe operation of any snowmobile. Study your Operator's Guide paying particular attention to cautions and warnings. Join your local snowmobile club: its social activities and trail systems are planned for both fun and safety. Obtain basic instructions from your snowmobile dealer, friend, fellow club member or enroll in your state or provincial safety training program. Always show a new operator how to start and stop the vehicle.
Always keep a safe distance from other snowmobiles and bystanders. Remember, promotional material may show risky maneuvers performed by professional riders under ideal and/or controlled conditions. You should never attempt any such risky maneuvers if they are beyond your level of riding ability. Never ride after consuming drugs or alcohol or if you feel tired or ill. Operate your snowmobile prudently. Your snowmobile is not designed to be operated on public streets, roads or highways.
Venturing out alone with your snowmobile could also be hazardous. You could run out of fuel, have an accident, or damage your snowmobile. Remember, your snowmobile is capable of traveling further in half an hour than you may be able to walk in a day. Use the “buddy system”. Always ride with a friend or member of your snowmobile club. Even then, tell someone where you are going and the approximate time you plan to return. Meadows sometimes have low areas where water accumulate and freezes over in winter.
Ensure the path behind is clear of obstacles or bystanders before proceeding in reverse. Do not leave your keys in the ignition switch, it is an invitation to thieves and a danger to young children. Raising the rear of your snowmobile while the engine is running could cause snow, ice or debris to be thrown back at an observer. Never raise the rear of the vehicle while the engine is running.
Fuel Always stop the engine before refueling. Fuel is flammable and explosive under certain conditions. Always work in a well-ventilated area. Do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks in the vicinity. Open cap slowly. If a differential pressure condition is noticed (whistling sound heard when loosening fuel tank cap) have vehicle inspected and/or repaired before further operation. Do not overfill or top off the fuel tank before placing the vehicle in a warm area.
LAWS AND REGULATIONS Know your local laws. Federal, state, provincial and local government agencies have enacted laws and regulations pertaining to the safe use and operation of snowmobiles. It is your responsibility as a snowmobiler to learn and obey these laws and regulations. Respect and observance will result in safer snowmobiling for all. Be aware of the liability property damages and insurance laws regarding your equipment.
RIDING THE VEHICLE Before venturing on the trails, operate the snowmobile in a restricted flat area until you are completely familiar with its operation and feel comfortable that you can safely tackle a more demanding task. Have an enjoyable and safe ride. Principle of Operation Propulsion Depressing throttle lever increases engine RPM causing the drive pulley to engage. Depending on models, engine RPM must be between 2500 and 4200 before drive pulley engagement will occur.
Stopping Before riding your snowmobile, you should understand how to stop it. This is done by releasing the throttle and gradually depressing the brake lever on the left side of the handlebar. In an emergency, you may stop your vehicle by pressing the engine cut-out switch located near the throttle control and applying the brake. Remember, a snowmobile cannot “stop on a dime”. Braking characteristics vary with deep snow, packed snow or ice. If the track is locked during hard braking, skidding may result.
• • • tool kit (including at least pliers, screwdriver, adjustable wrench) knife flashlight. Include other items depending on the length and time of your ride. Riding Position Your riding position and balance are the two basic principles of making your snowmobile go where you want it to. When turning on the side of a hill, you and your passenger must be ready to shift body weight to help it turn in the desired direction.
Sitting Feet on the running boards, body midway back on seat is an ideal position when operating the snowmobile over familiar, smooth terrain. Knees and hips should remain flexible to absorb shocks.
Posting A semi-sitting position with the body off the seat and the feet under the body in a sort of squatting posture, thus allowing the legs to absorb the shocks when traveling over uneven terrain. Avoid abrupt stops.
Kneeling This position is achieved by placing one foot firmly on the running board and the opposite knee on the seat. Avoid abrupt stops.
Standing Place both feet on the running boards. Knees should be flexed to absorb the shock from surface bumps. This is an effective position to see better and to shift weight as conditions dictate. Avoid abrupt stop. mmo2006-003-004 Carrying a Passenger Certain snowmobiles are designed for an operator only, others can allow one passenger only, and others can allow up to two passengers.
On snowmobiles allowing two passengers, if you have an adult and a child for passenger, BRP recommends that the child sits in the center location. This allows an adult sitting in the rear seat to keep a visual contact with the child and hold him if necessary. In addition, the child is best protected against the wind and cold temperature if seated in the center location. Each operator has a responsibility to ensure the safety of his passengers and should inform them of snowmobiling basics.
For complete information on how to adjust the suspension, please refer to the section of this Operator’s Guide entitled SUSPENSION ADJUSTMENTS under OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS and to the relevant label on the belt guard. Use extra caution and go even more slowly with young passengers. Check frequently to make certain the child has a firm grip and is properly positioned with his feet on the running boards.
Frozen Water Traveling frozen lakes and rivers can be fatal. Avoid waterways. If you are in an unfamiliar area, ask the local authorities or residents about the ice condition, inlets, outlets, springs, fast moving currents or other hazards. Never attempt to operate your snowmobile on ice that may be too weak to support you and the vehicle. Operating a snowmobile on ice or icy surfaces can be very dangerous if you do not observe certain precautions.
Downhill Downhill driving requires that you have full control of your vehicle at all times. On steeper hills, keep your center of gravity low and both hands on the handlebar. Maintain slight throttle pressure and allow the machine to run downhill with the engine operating. If a higher than safe speed is reached, slow down by braking but apply the brake with frequent light pressure. Never jam the brake and lock the track.
Bright Sunshine Bright sunny days can considerably reduce your vision. The glare from sun and snow may blind you to the extent that you cannot easily distinguish ravines, ditches or other obstacles. Goggles with colored lenses should always be worn under these conditions. Unseen Obstruction There may be obstructions hidden beneath the snow. Driving off established trails and in the woods requires reduced speed and increased vigilance.
Turning Depending on terrain conditions, there are two preferred ways to turn or corner a snowmobile. For most snow surfaces, “body english” is the key to turning. Leaning towards the inside of the turn and positioning body weight on the inside foot will create a “banking” condition beneath the track. By adopting this position and positioning yourself as far forward as possible, weight will be transferred to the inside ski.
Railroad Crossing Never ride on railroad tracks. It is illegal. Railroad tracks and railroad rights-of-way are private property. A snowmobile is no match for a train. When crossing a railroad track, stop, look and listen. Night Rides The amount of natural and artificial light at a given time can effect your ability to see or to be seen. Nighttime snowmobiling is delightful. It can be a unique experience if you acknowledge your reduced visibility.
Trails and Signs Trail signs are used to control, direct or regulate the use of snowmobiles on trails. Become familiar with all signs used in the area where you are snowmobiling. Transporting and Towing Follow transporting and towing instructions explained further in this guide.
TRACTION ENHANCING PRODUCTS NOTE: This section is applicable only to snowmobile equipped with a track that as been approved for studs. Using more positive carbide ski runners and traction enhancing products on your snowmobile will change its behavior, particularly in terms of manoeuvrability, acceleration, and braking. Studding the track gives a better grip on packed snow and ice, but has no noticeable effect on soft snow.
1) Oversteering In certain conditions, using more positive carbide ski runners without studding the track could make the snowmobile prone to oversteering, see illustration.
2) Understeering In certain conditions, the use of studs could make the snowmobile prone to understeering if the skis are not equipped with more positive carbide runners, see illustration. A33A33A UNDERSTEERING 3) Controlled Driving A balanced combination of carbide ski runners and studs ensures adequate control and better handling, see illustration.
Acceleration Studding the track will allow your sled to accelerate better on packed snow and ice but will have no noticeable effect on soft snow. This can cause sudden variations in traction under certain conditions. WARNING To prevent surprises that could lead to a loss of control of the snowmobile, possibly resulting in serious injury or death: – Always go easy on the throttle. – NEVER try to spin the track to make the rear of the snowmobile skid.
Studs can also cause serious damage to your snowmobile if it is not equipped with the tunnel protectors designed for your particular model. Damage to the electrical wiring or perforation of the heat exchangers are potential hazards, that could cause the engine to overheat and be severely damaged. WARNING If tunnel protectors are excessively worn or not installed, the gas tank could be punctured, causing a fire.
WARNING – Never stud a track that has not been approved for studs. Approved tracks can be identified by a stud symbol (see illustration) molded into the track surface. – Studs should only be installed in the locations indicated by molded bulges in the track surface. – Never stud a track with a profile of 35 mm (1.375 in) or more. – The number of studs installed must always perfectly match the pattern of molded bulges in the track.
– – – – – broken rods broken studs bent studs studs that are torn off the track missing track guide(s). Replace broken or damaged studs immediately. If your track shows signs of deterioration, it must be replaced immediately. When in doubt, ask your dealer. Always follow the inspections schedule given in the periodic maintenance table. WARNING Riding with a damaged track or studs could lead to loss of control, resulting in a risk of serious injury or death.
SAFETY LABELING Safety standards for snowmobiles have been adopted by the Snowmobile Safety and Certification Committee (SSCC) of which BRP is a proud participating member. Assurance that your snowmobile meets these standards is easily checked by locating the Certification Label on a right vertical portion of the vehicle. This label shows that an independent testing laboratory has verified compliance with the SSCC safety standards. PARRAINÉ PAR LE COMITÉ DE SÉCURITÉ DE CERTIFICATION DE LA MOTONEIGE, INC.

ENVIRONMENT INFORMATION __________________________ 53
GENERAL Wildlife compliments your snowmobiling day. Snowmobile tracks provide firm ground over which animals can travel from area to area. Do not violate this privilege by chasing or harassing wildlife. Fatigue and exhaustion can lead to animal's death. Avoid areas posted for the protection or feeding of wildlife. If you happen to be fortunate enough to see an animal, stop your snowmobile and observe quietly.
Light Treading refers to more than the thread of our tracks. It's a statement of concern, respect and willingness to take the lead and take action. It applies to the environment in general, its proper care and maintenance, its natural inhabitants and all enthusiasts and the public at large who enjoy the great outdoors. With this theme, we invite all snowmobilers to remember that respecting the environment is not only critical to the future of our industry but to future generations.
JUST WHAT IS LIGHT TREADING? The fundamental objective of Light Treading is one of respect for where and how you ride a snowmobile. You're a light treader when you follow the principles below. B e c o m e i n f o r m e d . Obtain maps, regulations and other information from the Forest Service or from other public land agencies. Learn the rules and follow them and that goes for speed limits, too! Avo id running over young trees, shrubs, and grasses and don't cut wood.
WHY IS LIGHT TREADING SMART Snowmobilers know all too well the efforts that have been made throughout the sport's history to enjoy access to areas where people can snowmobile safely and responsibly. This effort continues today, as strong as ever. Respecting the areas where we ride... wherever they may be... is the only way to ensure their future enjoyment. That's one major reason why we know you'll agree that Light Treading Is Smart Sledding! And there are more.

Parking brake should be used whenever snowmobile is parked.
All Models When the engine is running, depressing the START/RER button will command the engine to reverse crankshaft rotation as driving the snowmobile in reverse is achieved by changing the direction of rotation of the engine, not by shifting the chaincase in reverse gear. When depressing the START/RER button, the electronic module will practically slow down the engine RPM to a stop and advance the ignition timing to cause crankshaft rotation reversing.
Shifting in Reverse All Models WARNING Shifting to reverse mode on these snowmobiles is done by depressing the START/RER button when the engine is running. Wait until the reverse alarm sounds and the DESS/RER pilot lamp comes on in the dash before operating throttle to proceed in reverse. The reverse speed of these snowmobiles is not limited. Always proceed with caution as fast reverse could result in loss of vehicle stability. Come to complete stop before depressing START/RER button.
To do so, push and hold START/RER button with engine running. After 2 seconds, one beep is heard meaning that the low altitude mode can be selected. Releasing START/RER button just after hearing that one beep will select the low altitude mode. The reverse system is now ready to operate in low altitude regions. Shifting in reverse is achieved as described above in SHIFTING IN REVERSE. To select high altitude mode, push and hold START/RER button until 2 beeps are heard. Release button within one second.

Passenger's seat If you have an adult and a child for passenger, BRP recommends that the child sits in the center location. This allows an adult sitting in the rear seat to keep a visual contact with the child and hold him if necessary. In addition, the child is best protected against the wind and cold temperature if seated in the center location.
– – – WARNING NEVER place any cargo on either of the 2 passenger seats, as cargo could collide with occupants. If you ride with the 2 passenger seats installed, your cargo must be placed only in the suitcases. If you want to ride with 1 passenger and some cargo, do not put the cargo on the passenger’s seat left unused. You must instead remove the “2 + 1” seat and slide the passenger’s seat from the rearmost position, to the position just behind the operator’s seat.
– – – WARNING NEVER ride with the “2 + 1” seat installed if the rearmost passenger’s seat is not installed. The “2 + 1” seat must rest against the passenger’s seat behind it to be fully locked and stable. Without the passenger’s seat behind it, the “2 + 1” seat is unstable and could cause injuries to passengers. Never ride without the 2 + 1 seat removed, unless the rearmost seat is installed forward immediately behind the operator's seat.
A33A2ZA PULL PASSENGER'S SEAT REARWARD Slightly pull 2+1 seat rearward to release alignment tab from driver seat. Remove 2+1 seat.
A33A30A PULL 2+1 SEAT REARWARD NOTE: When the “2 + 1” seat is removed, you must always proceed to the reinstallation of the passenger’s seat (the one with a backrest) immediately behind the operator’s seat before riding. Failure to do so leaves the snowmobile with a hole between the operator’s seat and the passenger’s seat. This is incorrect and the snowmobile must not be ridden in this configuration. – – WARNING NEVER use the hole left by removing the “2 + 1” seat to sit a passenger or put cargo.
mmo2006-003-019 IMPROPER 2 PASSENGER'S SEAT SET-UP CAUTION: Take care to store the 2+1 seat properly to avoid any damages.

Your snowmobile is provided with a number of shields and guards. Leave these in place on your vehicle as they are designed to keep clothing and hands out of moving parts and away from hot components. Never attempt to make adjustments to any moving part while the engine is running.
1 2 A00A8KA TRACK SYMBOLS 1. Approved 2. NOT Approved Generally, snowmobiles adapted for mountain riding comes with tracks equipped with high lug profiles. These tracks are optimized for operation on loose snow. Running those tracks on hard packed surfaces put more stress on the lugs, which tend to heat up as a result. Avoid riding a snowmobile equipped with a high lug profiles track in a trail or on hard surfaces for an extended period of time to avoid potential degradation or damage to the track.
RECOMMENDED FUEL AND OIL Recommended Fuel Use regular unleaded gasoline, available from most service stations or oxygenated fuel containing a maximum total of 10% of ethanol or methanol or both. The gasoline used must have the following recommended minimum octane number.
When using non-oxygenated fuel, we highly recommend the use of isopropyl base gas line antifreeze in a proportion of 150 mL (5 U.S. oz) of gas line antifreeze added to 40 liters (10-1/2 U.S. gal) of gas. This precaution is in order to reduce the risk of frost buildup in carburetor(s) which may lead, in certain cases, to high fuel consumption or severe damage to engine. NOTE: Use only methyl hydrate free gas line antifreeze. Recommended Oil CAUTION: Use only injection oil that flows at - 40°C (- 40°F).
CAUTION: Never use four-stroke petroleum or synthetic motor oil and never mix these with outboard motor oil. Do not use NMMA TC-W, TC-W2 or TC-W3 outboard two-stroke engine oils or ashless two-stroke engine oils. Avoid mixing different brands of API TC oil as resulting chemical reactions may cause severe engine damage. Always maintain a sufficient amount of recommended oil in the injection oil reservoir. CAUTION: Check level and refill every time you refuel.
BREAK-IN PERIOD Engine CAUTION: A break-in period of 10 operating hours — 500 km (300 miles) — is required before running the snowmobile at full throttle. During break-in period, maximum throttle should not exceed 3/4. However, brief full acceleration and speed variations contribute to a good break-in. CAUTION: Engine overheating, continued wide open throttle runs and prolonged cruising without speed variations should be avoided, this can cause engine damage during the break-in period.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Pre-Operation Check WARNING The pre-operation check is very important prior to operating the vehicle. Always check the proper operation of critical controls, safety features and mechanical components before starting.

This adjustable drive pulley allows setting maximum engine RPM in the vehicle to maintain maximum power. Calibration screws should be adjusted so that actual maximum engine RPM in vehicle matches with the maximum horsepower RPM. NOTE: Use precision digital tachometer for engine RPM adjustment. NOTE: The adjustment has an effect on high RPM only. Calibration screw has a notch on top of its head. A33D19A 1. 1 Notch There are 6 positions numbered 1 to 6.
1 A16D0GA TRA DRIVE PULLEY 1. Position 1 (not numbered) Each position modifies maximum engine RPM by about 200 RPM. Lower position numbers decrease engine RPM in steps of 200 RPM and higher position numbers increase it in steps of 200 RPM. Example: Calibration screw is set at position 4 and is changed to position 6. So maximum engine RPM is increased by 400 RPM. Adjustment Just loosen locking nut enough to pull calibration screw partially out and adjust to desired position.
1 A16D0HA TYPICAL 1. Loosen just enough to permit rotating of calibrate screw WARNING WARNING NEVER disassemble or modify the drive pulley. Improper assembly or modifications could cause the pulley to explode violently under the stress generated by the high rotational speed. This could lead to serious injury including the possibility of death. See your SKI-DOO dealer to maintain or service the drive pulley. Improper servicing or maintenance may affect performance and reduce belt life.
