Snovvmobile Identification
T he A rclic Cat Snow mobile has two impOl1'ant identificati o n numbe rs. The Vehicl e Ide ntification Number (V I N) is stamped into the tuone l near the ri ght-side footrest. The Engine Serial Number (ESN) is stamped
ioto the crankcase of the enginc.
_NOTE : When using the recommended gasoline, the Fuel Designation Connector (the gray wire at the ECU) must be connected. _NOTE: When using oxygenated gasolines, the Fuel Designation Connector (the gray wire at the ECU) must be disconnected.
VIN
&.
CAUTION
00 not use white gas or gasoline containing methanol. Only Arctic Cat approved gasoline additives should be used.
&.
0726-383
CAUTION
These numbers are required to com pl et e warrant y claims properly. No warranty wili be allowed by Arctic Cat Inc , jf the engine seri al number or VIN is removed or mutilated in any way.
If oxygenated gasoline is to be used, it is extremely important that the Fuel Designation Connector at the ECU is disconnected. If not, severe engine damage may occur. NOTE: In order for the ECU to change modes, the engine must be OFF when connecting or disconnecting the Fuel Designation Connector.
RECOMMENDED OIL
The recommended o il to use in the oil- injection system is Arctic Cat 50: I Injectio n O il (fo r standard models) o r A rctic C at Sy nthetic AP V 2-Cycle O il (for A PV mode ls). The o il is s pec iall y formulat ed to be used either as an injection o il or as a pre-mi x o il (for carbureted model break-in) and meets all of the lubri cati on req uire me nts of the Arctic Cat snowmobile e ngine.
The recom mended gasoline to use in these snowmobiles is 87 minimum octane regular unleaded_ In many areas, oxygenates (either ethanol or MTBE) are added to the gasoline. Oxygenated gasolincs containing lip to 10 % ethanol or lip to 15% MTB E are acceptable gasolines; however, whenever using oxygenated gasolines, the carburctor main jet must be one size larger than the main j et required for reg ular unleaded gasoline. For example, if a 400 main jet is recommended for regular unl eaded gasoline, a 4 10 main jet mus t be ins l" all ed if using an oxygena ted gasol ine. W he n using etha no l blended gasoli ne, it is not necessary to add a gasoline antifreeze since et hano l will prevent the accumulatio n o f moisture in the fuel system.
Break-In Procedure
T he A rctic C at 2-stroke e ngine (w he n new o r rebuilt) requires a s hort break-in period before the e ng ine is s ubjected to heavy load conditions. Arctic e,l requires that the first tankful o f fuel be premixed at a 100: I ratio in all o il -injectio n mooels.
&.
CAUTION
00 not use white gas or gasolines containing methanol. Only Arctic Cat approved gasoline additives should be used.

Adjust the earburetor(s) and choke cabl e on carbureted mooels and throltle cablc on all mooels.
Altitude, temperature, and the use of oxygenated gasoline affect the carburetion needed for optimum engine pe rfo rmanc e. The carbureto r main j ets mu st be changed in conjunction with changes in operating altitude, oxygenated gasoline usage, and temperature.
DRIVE BELT DEFL.ECTION - Dri ve belt defl ec tion is very important to the snowmobile. Even if it is checked and is correct when the snow mobile is setup , it docs change (more so during the break-in peri od) Thi s is because the rubber engine mounts and the rubber snubber on the torque link will all take a "set" during the fir st 100 mil es, which all ows the di stanc e between the dri ve clutch and dri ven pulley to sh011en. Whe n thi s happens, the snow mobil e will a ppear to have a too long dri ve belt. To add to this, the dri ve belt itself wears and stretches somew hat. T hi s all leads to a low-e nd performance probl em and, if not corrected , causes premature dri ve belt wear.
,6, WARNING
On VM-style carburetors, be sure to tighten the swivel adapter jam nuts securely. If a jam nut isn't tightened, the adjuster can rotate out of the carburetor cap causing the piston valve not to return to the full-closed position.
11 . Tighten all nuts , bolts, and cap screws making sure all calibrated nuts, bolts, and cap screws are tightened to specifications. 12. Lubricate all grease fitting s (rear suspension, spindles, speedometer dri\'e adapter, and the dri ven shaft SUPIXll1 bearing) with a lowtemperature grC<lsc. 13. On liquid eooled models. check the coolant level and all coolant hoses and connections for deterioration or cracks. Add properly mixed coolant as necessary. 14. On fan cooled models, clean the engine cooling fins and all vents. 15. On electri c start models. charge the battery; then connect the battery cabl es making sure to connect the positi ve cable first. Test the electric start system.
After the break-in period, dri ve belt defl ection should be checked according to the instructions given in this manual. To correct for too much defle ction, washer(s) fr o m bet ween the dri ven pull ey s hea ves ca n be removed to "tighten the dri ve belt " and allow the belt to return to the proper ratio for dri ve clutch engagement.
DRIVE BELT BREAK-IN - It is critical for maximum dri ve belt life to all ow the belt to break in before subj ectin g it to hard use such as wide-ope n-throul e operation or hill climbing.
The fir st 20 miles on the dri ve belt should be at If2 throttl e o r lower. Thi s will all ow the belt to gain its optimum fl ex ibi lity and will extend belt life. Do not exceed 50 ~vIPI-1 during the first 20 miles. If thi s procedure isn't followed, it is IXlssible to destroy a new dri ve belt in less than 50 miles. T his should be ex plained to customers at the time of drive belt sales.

To increase the li fe of a dri ve belt , it is very impOitant that the belt be warmed up before subjecting it to any type of use. In co ld te mperature (0 or below), the engine should be allowed to idle fo r a pe riod of 8 to 10 minutes. This will allow heat from the engine compmtment to soft en the dri ve belt . Not only will this procedure increase belt life but wi ll also help prevent e ngine damage from cold seizure. Each operator should be in structed to drive the snowmobil e for several minutes at a low throttle setling to wa rm Ule belt up before using wide-ope n-throttle. T his practi ce should be foll owed on all models fo r maximum belt life. In addition to in structing eac h opera to r about these dri ve belt break-in procedures, Arctic Cat also recommends that the operators be informed that a dri ve belt (like brake pads, wear slrips, etc.) is considered a normal wear item a nd is li sted as an exclusion on the Arclic Cat Limited Warra nty. TRACK TENSION AND ALIGNMENT - There is a cel1ain amount of stretch on all tracks during the first 500 miles. The track must be adjusted after the first 50 to 100 mil es to the specifications given in the Setup and Pre -deli very rvlanual and pe ri od icall y the reafte r. If these adj ustments are n't perfor med, the track ma y "derai l" which leads to track and slide rail damage. Along with these three major areas, there arc also other areas that should be c hecked and adjusted during the "A ft er Break -In C heckup. " A checkli st to assist you with lhis service follows. Not onl y willihe custome r be ha ppi e r, but it also gets the c ustome r back into your dealership, which in many cases will mean additional sales in aecessories, belts, oil, etc.

NOTE: The above procedure will work fine on a new engine. Engines with many hours of use, may require a small change in the procedure. In step 3, remove the cylinder head. Wipe a small amount of heavy grease around the outer diameter of the piston to seal space between the piston and cylinder bore. Replace head and tighten to specification; then continue with steps 4 and 5.
4 . Remove the solder fro m the cylinder. Using the micrometer, measure the vcry end of the squeezed solde r pi ece. Record the reading.
NOTE: If the solder hasn't been squeezed by the piston, a larger piece of solder must be used. Repeat procedure.
5. Using the opposite end o f the solder piece, insert it dow n through the s park plug hole towards the PI"O-side of the engine . Pus h on the solder until it contacts the inner cylinder bore. 6. Pull the recoil ro pe and crank the engine over several times. Remove the solder from the cylinde r and measure the squeezed end with a micrometer. Record readi ng and refer to the chmt.
NOTE: Measure from PTO to MAG-side of the piston to accurately measure the squish gap. Never measure across piston, exhaust to carbUrE~ tor side, as the piston will rock and the reading won't be accurate.
Readings may vary fro m side to side. rvlake s ure the s malle r reading is within the s pecifications listed .

There is one major differe nce between the carbureted and fu el inj ected model s concerning the conde nser's locati on. O n the carbureted models, the condenser is a separate compo nent In the fu el inj ected mode ls, the condenser is located within the ECU and is part o f the
ECU.
CDI Unit or ECU

E.
Condenser
C DI Unit or ECU
Servomotor
The computer within the C Ol o r ECU has been programmed to raise and lower the power val ves at a specific engine rpm. Whe n thi s rpm is rc.. "lched , DC current is ro uted to the servomotor by the COl o r the ECU.
Servomotor
G.
T he servomotor consists of two c ircuits. O ne c ircuit is a DC c ircuit , w hich operates the DC moto r within the servo, and the other is a po tentio meter, which measures the resistance, ampe rage, and servo pulley positio n. The computer within the COl unit and ECU ha ve been programmed to ope rate the sen 'omoto r between a low and hi gh resistance range. If resistance is not within the range, the compute r w ill shut dow n the APV circuit. T he co mpute r will the n ma ke a to ta l o f three mo re attempts to cyc le the power val ves. If the correct resistance, ampe rage, or pulley position isn"t seen, the APV circuit is shut down and no more attempts will be made until the engine is shut dow n and restarted.
Cables
T he ex ha ust va lves are connec ted to the actua tin g cables and , along with the return springs, arc contained inside the APV ho using on the ex ha ust side of each cylinder. The othe r end of the actuating ca bJc is connected to the servo. The re is al so a vent hose o n eac h A PV ho using to re lieve the pressure o f " blow by" gases that may escape fro m the cylinder.
OPERATION
At idle and low speed ope rati on, the ex haust \'al ves are held in the "low po rt" pos iti o n by the re turn sprin g. When e ngine RPivl reaches a predetermined point , the COl/ECU w ill send a sig nal to the servo w hich will cyele and pull the ex haust val ves into the up o r " hi gh po rt" positio n. The RPM at which the valves o pen is different with each model. W hen the engine is first started (2004/2005 model s), the ex hau st val ves will cycl e o nce at low rpm (2500 rpm ) on all model s except the Firecat 700 EFI and carburet ed model s. O n th ese model s, th ey won"t cycl e until 7200 rpm.
If th e se r vo m o t o r cy cl es th e ex hau s t val ves a s ex plained above, the exhaust val ve circuit is o pe rating sati sfa cto ril y. If the servomo tor makes no atte mpt to o pe n the val ves o r if the servo atte mpt s to cycl e the val ves three times (then stops working), the re is a pro blem and it must be corrected.
T he AC current from the power coil first enters the regulato r/rectifie r which is then changed from AC c urrent to pul sating OC current. Since the APV circ uit cannot W ie pulsating DC curre nt , it must be converted (by the conde nser) to straight DC curre nt whi ch is necessary fo r the APV syste m. O n those mode ls us in g the li g htin g co il a s a power source, AC c urre nt e nters the ECU from the li g htin g coil and is changed fro m AC to DC current by a rectifi er located within the ECU.
Condenser
The pulsating DC current from the regulator/rectifier is passed through the condenser. The conde nser filt ers the pulsal"ing DC current and converts it to regular DC curre nt, much like fro m a 12 ~vo lt bauery.

In thi s situati on the CO l or ECU computer ha s been progra mm ed with a resistance range (low and hi gh) that the servomotor must ope rate within. If the servomotor is put under too much load, its resistance goes up and lTlay exceed the range upper limit. lt will then stop and attempt two more times. If the resist.'lnce sti ll is 100 high, it shuts dow n. The sa me is true if the resistance is too low under a li ght load. The servomotor resistance wiII be low and the se rvomoto r will again cycle t wo more times to attempt to find the correct circuit resistance. If not sensed by the CDI or ECU computer, the servo is shut down. Improper se rvomotor ci rcuit resistance is normall y caused by one or more of the following:
A.
NOTE: When troubleshooting the above components with either a COlor ECU, there are some major differences. With the COl system, the regula tor/rectifier and condenser are located separately outside the COl unit.
On the fuel injected lTlodels, the condenser (and sometimes the rectifi er) arc part of the EC U. In thi s case, first check to make sure the lighting coi l output meets speci fi cations; then check the DC current coming from the ECU to the servomotor. If the current entering the ECU is sa ti sfac tory, but low coming o ut , the ECU would be considered to be bad.
NOTE: For testing individual APV system com ponents, see Section 5.

MAINTENANCE
The APV system requires onl y periodic cleaning and cable adjustment. T he cables should be checked every 1000-2000 miles and adjusted as necessary. To ensure ma ximum performance and minimi ze maintenance req uirements. Arctic Cat recommends using A rclic Cat Syn theti c APV 2-Cycl e Oi l. Us in g oi ls other than the reco mme nd ed oi l ma y increa se the frequenc y of requi red cleaning due to increased buildup of carbon deposits.
Incorrect exhaust valve cable le ngth (too long or 100 sh0l1). Exhaust va lve cable(s) sticking, broken, or disconnected at pulley. Exhaust valves st icking. Exhaust valve spring(s) weak or broken.

CABLE ADJUSTMENT
(St:andard Models)
Proper cable adjustment is criti ca l to the operation of the APV system. Whil e it is recommen ded that the cable adjustment be inspected every 1000-2000 mil es. the cab le should not need adjustment oft en. To check the cable adjustment, use the foll ow ing procedure. I. Remove the lwo cap screws securing the servo cover.
If when running the e ngi ne the servomotor makes no altempt to operate, this is caused by one or more of the foll ow ing: A. Bad connecti on from the wi ring harness and connector from the DC power coil or the lighting coil 10 the regulator/rectificr, to condenser, to CDI or EeU. or from COlor ECU to servomotor. DC coi l output is non-ex istent or too low. Regulatorlrectifier output is too low. Condenser output is too low. COlor ECU output to servomotor is too low.

T he APV syste m has a self-cl eanin g a nd self-testi ng mooe bui lt in. Every time that the engine is stal1ed, the servo will cycle once, and thi s wiil wipe-off the carbon that has accumulated on the ex haust valves . The CDI unit also monitors the voltages at the servo during this cycle to assure they are within operational tolerances. If all \'oltages are within tolerance. the system is ready for operation, If the voltages are not wi thin tol erance, the servo wi ll cycle two more tim es. If the voltages remain out of tolerance , the system wi ll not operate.

Introduction
The baucrylcss EFI system is lightweight in design and i s m ade tip o f a number o f co mponent s w hich are ex plained in thi s sub-section. The battcrylcss EFI system eliminates the worr y of battery maintenance or
changing main jets to compe nsate for altitude or tempe rature. T hi s EFI system will prov ide quick and easy starting under all conditi ons. T he electrical cont rol unit (ECU) has a self-di agnostic
mode built in . It is a vcry valuabl e fac lor in trouble-
shooting. O nce the problem area has been dete rmined from the trouble code fla shed by the LED (light emittin g di ode) located und e r th e left e nd o f the ECU (check engine li ght in the speedomete r/tac homete r on
" Laydown" engine model s), follo w the troubl eshoot -
ing procedure in this sub-sectio n. When troubleshooting the baueryless EFI system , spe cial tools are required. These special tools arc the following. A. EFI Analyzer (pIn 0644-342) B. Compression/Pressure Tester Kit (pIn 0644366)
C. Fluke Model 73 Muitimcte r (pIn 0644- 19 1)

2. A fuel pump coil located on the stator operates the low voltage, high output fuel pump. At cranking speed, the high output fuel pump provides e nough fuel to charge the fuel rail . 3. An injector coil located on the stator provides the injectors with DC voltage for operation through the ECU. 4. A li ghting coi l located on the stator plate provides output to operate accessories and the lighting system. 5. An electrica l control unit (ECU) calculates input from fi ve sensors (i ntake a ir temperature sensor, water temperature sensor, throttle position sensor, ignition ti ming sensor, barometric pressure sensor) to provide the engine with the correct fuel mixture and timing for optimum o peration.
6 CAUTION
Always use resistor-type spark plugs and spark plug caps. Non-resistor components will cause the ECU to malfunction.
EFI FEATURES
I. Automatic compens. 'ltion for tempe rature. 2. Automatic compens.'ltion for altitude. 3. O ptimum throttle response through high pressure injection. 4. Q uick stmting in every condition. 5. Improved fuel effi ciency with maximum mileage in every condition. 6. Engine RPiv l more stabl e ill every condition.
pe rforming service work on the fuel system, place the emergency sto p switch and the Ignition sw itc h in the O N position. Disconnect the yellow water te mpe rature sensor lead wire at the ECU. Crank the engine over 68 times with the recoil starter. With the water temperature sensor lead disconnected, the fuel system wi ll call for maximum mi xture and the system will charge faster. Aft er 6-8 bri sk pull s 011 the recoil starter rope. reconnect the yellow sensor lead . The engine should start in 2-3 additional pull s. Aft er charging the fuel system, the e ngine should stmt in 3-4 pulls when cold. 2. Start the e ngi ne without compressing the throttle. When the engine stmts for the first time, do not touc h the throltle. It will idle slowly and may stop. Repeat this procedure until the e ngine starts and builds RPlv, on its own. T his may req uire 3-4 restarts. O nce the engine has been started and run, the next cold start should occur in 2-3 pull s of the recoil staller rope.
FLOODED ENGINE
If the engine s hou ld become fl ooded , set the brake lever lock, compress the throltle lever to the full-ope n pos ition, a nd crank the e ngi ne over until it starts and clears itself. Release the brake lever loc k.
PRECAUTIONS

The water temperature sensor is located on the bottom of the thermostat manifold on standard models and on the lowe r crankcase on " Laydow n" engine models. T hi s sensor is very sensiti ve to temperature change. The ECU measures the current now through the sensor to ground. From thi s mcasllfement , the ECU can determine the engine coolant tempe rature and calcul ate the correct fuellair mi xture rati o.
NOTE: If the coolant temperature rises above 80 0 C (176 0 F), the temperature sensor starts to rich en the fuel mixture. At this time , the check engine light will flash constantly. Once the engine coolant temperature reaches the specified temperature 93 0 C (200 0 F), the temperature sensor will signal the ECU to go into the rich mode to protect the engine from overheating. At this time , the check engine light will be constantly on.

The intake air temperature senso r is mounted on the front of the air-intake sile nccr. It s purpose is to sense air temperature entering the air-intake sil e nce r and engine. The ECU se nds current to thi s sensor, and (de pending on the temperature) the sensor will pass a celtain amount of current through the sensor to ground. T he ECU measures how much CUlTent passes through the sensor to ground. From this measurement, the ECU determines the air temperature and calcul ates the fuel! air mixture rati o. This sensor is very sensiti ve to temperature change. Resistance will drop as the temperature ri ses.
T he throttl e position sensor, located at the end of the throttl e shaft , is a potentiometer (a potentiometer is, essentially, a voltage di vider). This sensor transform s the throttl e-val ve pos iti on into output volta ge to the ECU. In additio n, the se nsor detects the ope ning or closing speed of the throttle val ve and feeds that rate of voltage change to the ECU.
NOTE: The input from the throttle position sensor is one of the main inputs for the ECU calculation of fueVair mixture ratio.

T his sensor is located on the top of the magneto case near the cylinder on some models. O n other models the sensor is located inside the magneto case next to the Oyw hecl, and on these models, the recoil stm1er and the Oyw heel must be removed to access the sensor. T his sensor is triggered by a small metal di sc precisel y mounted to the Oyw heel n ange. E<lc h time the meta l disc rotates past the sensor, a signal is sent to the ECU. From thi s signal , the ECU de te rmines igniti on a nd injection timing a nd RPM.

To stop the engine once it has been stal1ed, touch the auxiliary ground wire to the cngllle. 4. SU ppOl1 the rear of the snowmobil e up on a shielded safety stand ; then set the brake lever lock. Inspect the complete throttle mechanism to assure that it's working properly. 5. Attempt to start the engine. To stop the engine (if the engine stm1s), tOllch the auxiliary ground wire IOstalled into the four-wire connector to a ground on the engine. If the engine fails to start, the probl em is with the coils mounted on the engine, hi gh tension coil assembly, or the CDI unit. If the engi ne starts, the problem is with the sw itches , main wiring harness, or throttle cable free-play.
I. Verify that the throttle cable has the specified amount of free-play between the throttle lever and control housing. 2. Disconnect the two-wire throttle control sw itch connector; then connect the ohmmeter leads to each of the switch wires. 3.

Adjust the throttle cable sw ivel adapter at the top of each carburetor for 0.75- 1.5 mm (0.030-0.060 in. ) cable free-play gap between the throttle lever "nibs" and the control housing . While observing if there is any cable free-play gap, appl y slight pressure to the thronle lever to take up any cable slack that may be prescnt. Howevcr, do not appl y enough pressure to actually raise the carburetor slides during thi s adjustment. Aftcr ca ble free-play is properly adjusted, ti ghten the jam nut on each carburetor securely.
4. If an adjustment is necessary. loosen the switch bracket sc rews, move the sw itch up, ti ghten the screws, and then reset using ste p 3.
NOTE: After completion of any adjustments, throttle lever "side pressure" should not cause an ignition miss at idle. Carburetor switches set too low or an excessively tight throttle cable makes the shutdown system very sensitive to throttle lever " side pressure" near Idle. To test carburetor safety switch synchronization, follow steps 5-9.

I. Remove the carbureto r assembly from the engine compm1ment (see Section 4). 2. Loosen the idle adjustme nt screw until it is not in contact w ith the throttle lever.
W hen checking the ig nitio n timing, a couple points must be remembered. First, since the ignition timing is affected by the throttl e position, the throttle position sensor (TPS) must be in good operati ng conditi oll and adjusted correctly. Second, the ignition timing must be checked according to the Ignition Ti ming S pecificatio ns in thi s section.
&CAUTION
Never remove the drive belt to make the timing check. Always place the rear of the snowmobile on a shielded safety stand and allow the track to rotate freely.
When checking ignitio n timing, it is impol1allt that the timing li ght be connected to the number I spark plug wi re, which is the MAG -side cylinder. If the number 2 cylinder spark plug wire is used, the timing li ght may show a 2 0 erro r in ignition timing when ignition timing is actually correct. For example, the correct ignition timing o n the 500 cc wlAPV is30 2 0 BTOC at 2000 RP~vI . To quickl y c heck T PS o peration , measure the timing according to the c hm1; then di sconnect the TPS wiring and rec heck the timing. A system with a functioning TPS will show a change in the timing. T his is knowll as " Fail-Safe Ignition Timing" and is built into the system to protect the engine should the TPS fail. If this change is no t see n, the TPS ma y have fail ed and must be checked. If the igni ti on timing isn't 300 2 0 at 2000 RPM , the TPS sho uld be checked fo r proper adjustment using the TPS Adjustme nt Tool (pIn 0644-299) and a di g ital voltmeter.
3. De press the throttle lever to raise the throttle val ves (slides); then insert Pin Gauge (pIn 0644345) into the TPS-side carburetor (hro.'lt beneath the val ve. Slow ly release the throule lever allowing the val ve to rest o n the gauge.
NOTE: The pin gauge MUST be installed on the engine side of the carburetor, NOTE: Before using the TPS adjustment tool, verify its battery condition, The battery used in the tool is a 9-volt battery. To check battery condition, use a digital volt/ohmmeter set on DC volt scale, Test between the adjustment tool black and red jacks. Insert the red lead of the digital voltmeter into the red I'ack of the adjustment tool and the black lead 0 the digital voltmeter into the black jack of the adjustment tool, If voltage is found below 4,9 volts, replace the battery.
4. Using TPS Adjustment Tool (pIn 0644-299), connect it') wi ring harness to the TPS . Counect the two digital \'o!tmeter leads (red and black) using the two pin jack adapters provided with the adjustment tool to the white and black jacks of the TPS adjustment tool.

Drive Clutch
CHANGING CAM ARMS (9.Pos. S.yle)
T he ca m arms on the dri\'e clutch can be changed without disassembling thc cl utch. To changc the cam anns , use the following procedure. I. Check to make sure the ignition sw itch is in the OFF position. 2. Remove the dri ve bell. 3. Compress the mo\'ablc sheave approxi mately 2.5 cm ( I in.) and whil e holding it in thi s position, insert a nat t)(Jr firml y betwecn the bottom side of the spider and the inner surface of the movable sheavc. Slow ly release the movablc sheave. 4. Remove the lock nuts from the three cam ann pins. 5. Remove the cam arm pins one at a time; then remove the cam arm with bushing and account for the washers.
NOTE: When installing cam arms, always use new lock nuts. Make sure the head of each cam arm pin is positioned towards the direction of drive clutch rotation. Tighten nuts until they contact the shoulder of the cam arm pin ; then tighten an additional 1/8 turn.
KEY
1. Lock Nut
Drive Belt
The belt dimensions and construction are two fa ctors
that influence the performance of the dri ve system. The two belt dimensions that are important to the per-
fo rmance of the snowmobile are the outside circumfere nce and the width . Both of these dimensions will innuence shifting characte ristics.
If the dri\'e belt is longe r than s pecified, the dri ve clutch and driven pull ey wi ll not have the full s hift rati o. Also, a too- long dri\'e belt wi ll cause lX)()r acceleration and a decrease in top speed. If the drive be lt is shorte r than s pecified , the dri ve clutch and dri ven pulley will have a different shift pattern because they are in diffe re nt ratios from those for which they were ori ginall y matched. A too-short dri ve belt wi ll cause a loss in performance and a bog on engagemc nt.
NOTE: A drive belt that is worn thin may produce the same effect as one that is too long.
2. Cam Arm
3. Bushing 4. Washer 5. Pin
Dri ve bell construction has an influcnce on the way the dri ve clut c h and dri ve n pulley will shift and on the amount of power that wi ll be trans mitted through the sys te m . O N LY A RC TI C CAT DRI VE BELTS SHOULD BE USED. Different brands of bells may not have the same constructi on causing eithcr more friction or more slippage when the belt is wedged between the sheaves and, thus, a loss of effici ency.
NOTE: A stiff belt causes a HP loss to the track. As a belt warms up, it gets more flexible and transmits power with less HP loss.
6. Change the ca m arms and secure with new lock nuts and existing pins making sure the head of each pin is positioned toward the direction of dri ve clutch rotation.
NOTE: The drive clutch rotates counterclockwise.
Do not run the engine with removed or the bar in the clutch.

Weight Transfer - A shift in the center of grav ity in any direction depends on the force applied. Track Tension - The amount of tightness or looseness or the track when correctly mounted in the chassi s.
Spring Tension - The amount of force exerted on the spring by either fork tension adjustment o r eye bolt adjustment. Ski Pressure - The a moun t of fo rce exerted downward o n the skis.
Good weight transfer characteristics arc needed for fa st acceleratio n (shirt o f weight from ski s to track) and for cornering (shirt o f weight baek to skis to hold the fro nt end in turns) . Effective weight transfer depe nds on SllSpension te nsio n, position o f rider, and the position of the front arm limiter. To understand how the suspension system works, think of the e ntire systc m in ter ms o f three points; the skid frame rear ax le center, the skid frame front arm, and the ski saddle center. Assumc that the front arm fun ctions as a stat iOnary pi vot point between the rear axle cente r and the ski saddle center. Also assume that the ski saddle center is the same height off the ground as the rear axle center. This proollces the standa rd positio n arrangement.
0728-190
Undcr acceleratio n when the center of gravity is lransferred to the rear o f the machine, the rear sllspe nsio n collapses slightl y. This brings the rear arm point downward and with the fro nt arm statio nary, the teeter-tolter effect reduces the pressurc on the ski s, position A. However, for contro ll ed corne ring, more pre ssurc is needed on the ski s. So w hen the driver dccelerates coming into a corner, the cente r of grav it y is tra nsferred fo rwa rd , puuing thc rcq uired pressure on to the ski s and reduci ng the pressure o n the rea r suspensioll , IXlsition C.
0728-181
T hi s is essentially w hat weight transfer is all about the shift o f weig ht to the rear of the machine for IXlsiti ve tractio n and good acceleration or to the front of the machine for IXlsitive handling and cornering control.

It is desirable to fUll with vcry li g ht front arm spring tens io ll . Whell ridin g in4 in . or more of snow, th e machine wi ll be quicke r if the front sprin g tensioll is adj usted lightly.
If the spring tension is adjusted too stifr, the track anglc at the front o f the skid frame is steep. Thi s sleep angl e prevents the snowmobile from getting lip on plane and slows dow n by 510 8 mph. When riding in sticky snow (springtime o r warm days) o r hill climbing Oil hard snow, it may be desirable to stiffen the front arm spring tensioll. Whe n thi s is dOllc. wcight is transfcrrcd back qui c ke r. Thc problc m wit h too much front ann spring tension is that thc fccl ofthc snowmobi le becomes \'e ry short . T he reason for thi s is the front arm beco mes the pi vot point bet wee n the spindles and rear of the machine. With dominant spring tension o n the front arm , the suspe nsion is basicall y contacting the snow from a po int below the front arm to the ski s or the spind le pressure point. Thi s makes for a very s hort and darting machine on the trail. Thi s is espec iall y true whe n decelerating and the cent e r of gravity is transfcrred fo rward . A good method for adjustin g thc front spring tcns ion fo llows. NOTE: On those models having a coil spring over the front arm shock absorber, the spring ten sion should be set as soft as possible when oper ating on trails and in deep snow,
2. With stiffer springs, the front end wiil become more aggressive in the corne rs as more weight will be transferred to the ski s when decelerating. Also, more weight is transferred to the rear on accele ration and can cause the rear shocks and spring to bottom o ut.
2. Less aggressive steering III corners on dcccleratio n, and less wcight is transferred to thc skis because of soft er springs.
& CAUTION
If the ski shock spring is adjusted too loose, the spring retainer may fall out. If the spring is adjusted beyond specification , the spring will coil bind and spring adjuster damage will occur.

NOTE : It has been our experience that a tight front arm works well under only two conditions: sticky snow conditions in the spring of the year and in hill climbing on hard packed snow. It has also been our ex perience with A FS model s that with the front a nn adjusted too soft , the sprin g ma y come off the roller. There haven't been any other pro blems in handling caused by a soft front arm.
NOTE: Adding air pressure will increase the air spring force; reducing air pressure will decrease air spring force.

This will result in a lower gauge pressure 0.143.52 kg/cm 2 (2-5 psi). 3. To deClease air pressure in the shock, press the black bleed valve butto n half way down and hold until desired pressure is attained. _NOTE : Pressing the button fully down and releasing it will allow only a small amount of air to escape (micro-adjust). 4. To increase air pressure in the shock, pump until desired pressure is attained. 5. Remove the pump valve from the shock air valve. _NOTE : As the pump valve is being removed from the shock, the sound of air loss is from the pump hose, not from the shock. 6. Install the air valve cap onto the shock.

Shaft Eyelet
REMOVING
1. Using Shock Rod Clamping Tool (pin 0644-277) to prevent damage to the shaft surface, place the shock shaft into a vise. 2. Heat thc shart eyclet with a torch to sortCIl the Loctite.
4. Put a small amount of light grease on the seal and slide the bearing cap over the tool and onto the shaft
NOTE: The eyelet must be heated up to 3000 for the Loctite to soften.
3. Using a wrench , unsc rew the eyelet from the shaft 5. On a front arm adjuster shock, install the spacer washer on shan and install adjuster piston in the same manner as bearing cap; then remove the installation tooL 6. Install pi ston valvc asscmbly. Tighten thc sclflocki ng nut to 2.1-2.8 kg-m (15-20 rt-lb).
INSTALLING
1. Clean shart threads and eyelet threads. 2, Appl y red Loctite #271 to both threads, install the eyelet, and tighten securely,

2. Turn the nitrogen tank va lve o pen and slowly rotate the regulator T-handle inward until the gauge reads 200 lb o r pressure; then close fill er valve and remove inflatio n needle .
NOTE: On remote reservoir shocks, use a needle nose vise grips to hold the bladder housing to keep the end cap from pushing into the reservoir when inserting the inflation needle.
WARNING
Never have a nitrogen bottle in the area without having it chained or secured. If the bottle should tip over and the regulator break off, the gas inside it is under 1800 Ib of pressure and per sonal injury may result.
D WARNING
Always rotate the regulator Thandle to its loose position each time when finished using the system. Each time before the nitrogen tank valve is opened , check to make sure the regulator Than die is turned out. When opening the nitrogen tank valve, never stand in front of the regulator in case there should be a problem.
_NOTE : Before inserting the needle into the bladder, lubricate the needle with light oil to make installation easier.
3. Install the screw into the bladder ho using and tighten securely. 4. With the reservoir pressuri zed, push down o n the shock shan until it nearl y botto ms and release it. The shan sho uld return to its extended lX1sition smoothl y.
NOTE: If a soft spot or a mushy area is felt as the shaft is pushed down, this would indicate air in the shock body. If there is air in the shock body, discharge the reservoir gas pressure. Disassemble the shock to the point that the "filling with oil" and the "bleeding air" procedures can be redone. Assemble and repeat the pressurizing procedure. To test the shock absorber for nitrogen gas leaks, submerge in water.
into the shock bladder; then ope n the val ve o n the fill er handle.
