Inadequate Snow Conditions
Since snow provides the only lubrication for the power slide suspension and, on liquid cooled models, cooling for the engine, adequate snow cover is a requirement for operation of your snowmobile.
 NOTICE
         
         Driving in too little snow will result in excessive
               wear and damage to the slide rail, track and/or engine.
          WARNING
         Inadequate cooling and lubrication will lead
               to overheating of the slide rail and track, causing premature wear,
               damage and failure, which can result in serious injury. Reduce speeds
               and frequently drive into fresh snow to allow adequate cooling and
               polishing of the slide rail and track surfaces. Avoid operating for
               prolonged periods on ice, hard-packed surfaces or roads.
