Pre-operation checks 46 ESU11071 Inspect your vehicle each tim e you use it to make sure the vehicle i s in safe operating c ondition. Always follow the inspection and mai ntenance procedures and schedules described in the Owner ’ s Manual.
Pre-operation checks 47 Drive track • Check the defl ection. • Adjust if nec essar y . • Check f or wear and dam age. • If necessar y , have a Y a maha dealer replace track. 98 Slide runners • Check f or wear and dam age. • If necessar y , have Y amaha dealer replace slide runners.
Operation 48 ESU13500 Read the Owner ’ s Manual carefully to be- come familiar with al l controls. If there is a control or function you do not understand, ask your Yamaha dealer. W ARNING EWS00201 Failure to familiarize yourself with the con- trols can lead to loss of control, which could cause an accident or injury.
Operation 49 4. Warm up the engine until it runs smooth- ly. 5. Be sure the low coolant temperature indi - cator light has gone out before operation. (See page 18 for detailed information about the indicator li ght.) RST90 1. Apply the parking brake. 2.
Operation 50 5. Warm up the engine, and then close the starter (choke) leve r when the engine runs smoothly. 6. Be sure the low coolant temperature indi - cator light has gone out before operation. (See page 18 for detailed information about the indicator li ght.
Operation 51 Pay particular attent ion to the safety informa - tion on page 6. Please read all w arning and notice label s on your snowmobil e . Also, read the Snowmobil - er ’ s Sa fety Handbook that i s supplied with your snowmobile. Learning to ride y our snowmobile Before you ride, always perform the pre-oper- ation checks listed on page 46.
Operation 52 er speeds or in tighter curves. Lean more as the turn gets s harper or is made at higher speeds. Improper riding techniques such as abrupt throttle changes, excessiv e braking, incorrect body movements, or too much speed for the sharpness of the turn may cause the snow- mobile to tip.
Operation 53 Trav ersing a slop e W ARNING EWS00251 Driving across the face of a slope ( “ si de- hilling ” ) can lead to overturn or loss of control if proper techniques are not used.
Operation 54 track, slide runners, and drive sprockets. Op- eration of the snowmobil e on the following surfaces should be avoid ed at all times: ● Dirt ● Sand ● Rocks ● Gras s ● Bare paveme.
Operation 55 around the already weakened area. To mini- mize possible damage , consult your stud manufacturer for installation and stud pattern recommendations.
Operation 56 TIP The reverse buzzer beeps w hile the shift lever is in reverse. 2. While squeezing the brake lever, release the parking brak e by moving the parking brake lever to the right, and then release the brake lever. 3. Squeeze the throttle lever slowly to start out.
Operation 57 ● If transporting the snowmobile in an open trailer or truck, put a tight fitting cover on the snowmobile. A cover specificall y designed for your snowmobile is best. This will help keep foreign objects out of the c ooling vents, and also h elp protect the snowmo- bile against damage from debris on the road.
