BREAK-IN PERIOD

With Bombardier-Rotax snowmobileengines, a bread-in period is requiredbefore running the vehicle at full throt­tle. manufacturer recommen­dation 10 to 15 operating 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 314, 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.

O NOTE: A new drive belt requiresa break-in period of 15-25 km (10­

15 miles),

10..Hour InspectionAs with any precision piece of mechan­ical equipment, we suggest that afterthe first 10 hours of operation or 30days after the purchase, whichevercomes first, that your vehicle be check­ed by your dealer. This inspection will

you the opportunity to discuss theunanswered questions you may 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 hour 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 experimentY with different fuel or fuel ratios.

Never use naphtha, methanol or similarproduct.

Recommended OilUse concentrated Bombardier snow­mobile oil available from your dealer.This type of oil has specially formulatedoil bases to meet the lubrication re­quirements 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 manufacturer recom­mendations on container.~ CAUTION: Never use outboardY 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.

S.1. MEASURE

500 mL oil to 25 liters = 50/1

IMPERIAL MEASURE

1 can 16 oz oil to 6 imp. 50/1or1 can 600 mL oil to 51/2 imp. gats= 50/1

U.S. MEASURE

1 can 12 oz oil to 5 U.S gals 50/1

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

ture.

10

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 flamma­ble and explosive under certain

conditions. Always manipulate in awell ventilated area. Do not smoke orallow open flames or sparks in the vici­nity. If gasoline fumes are noticedwhile driving, the cause should be de­termined and corrected without delay.Never add fuel while the engine is run­ning. Avoid skin contact with fuel atbelow freezing temperatures.1. Pour approximately one gallon of

gasoline into a clean container.

2. Add the full amount of oil.

3. container cap and shakethe container thoroughly.

4. Add the remainder of the gasoline.

5. Once again thoroughly thecontainer. Then using a funnel witha fine mesh screen to prevent theentry of water and foreign particles,transfer mixture from container intothe snowmobile tank.

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

thoroughly as the oil has a tendency tosettle.

£. WARNING: Never 'top up' gas...,. tank before placing the vehicle ina warm area. At certain temperatures,gasoline will expand and overflow.

PRE-START CHECK

Check Points• Activate the throttle control lever severa I

times to check that it operates easilyand smoothly. The throttle control levermust return to idle position when re­leased.
