Track Lubrication

Track failure, loss of vehicle control and braking ability can result from extended use of this vehicle on surfaces providing marginal lubrication between the slider and track guide clips. Examples of marginal lubrication would include lakes without snow cover, icy trails and no-snow conditions.

The slide rail is designed to operate in conditions with adequate snow cover in order to provide sufficient lubrication. Excessive wear indicates insufficient lubrication. A new slider can cause faster heat build up in limited lubrication than a used slider, resulting in excessive wear.
