Throttle Lever
The throttle and brake are the primary controls of your snowmobile. Always make sure both are functioning properly.
Squeeze the throttle lever to make sure it compresses evenly and smoothly. When released, the lever should immediately return to the idle position without binding or hesitation. If the throttle does not function smoothly, or if you discover excessive lever freeplay, DO NOT start the engine. Have the throttle serviced immediately.
