Owner's Operation and Maintenance Manual

PRE OPERATION CHECK
Make sure your track and skis are not frozen to the snow.
Stand behind the machine and lift up on the back of the sled.
This will free the t rack if it is frozen to the ground. Turn the
handlebars to move the skis back and forth to make sure they
aren’t frozen. If any of this is hard too, have an adult help you.
Have an adult check the gas level to see if your snowmobile
needs more. Children should never add their own gasoline.
This should always be done by an adult. Before anyone adds
gasoline to your snowmobile they must read the instructions
and warnings on page A--23 in this Owner’s Manual.
Have an adult check the engine oil level when the engine
is cold. The engine is very hot after it has been running. It
could burn you. Children should never check the oil on their
own. An adult should be in charge of keeping the gas and oil
levels to the full marks.
Make sure your hood is latched tight before starting your
machine.
This last check is done with the engine running. You must
check to make certain that ALL THREE WAYS TO STOP your
snowmobile are working the way they should. Do you
remember what they are? If you cannot list them, go back to
page R--6 and review.
