Battery Installation

When installing a new battery, ensure it has a full charge prior to initial use. Using a new battery with a partial charge can damage the battery, cause shorter battery life, and hinder vehicle performance. Follow the charging instructions, included with your new battery, before installing.

To install a new battery in your snowmobile, do the following:

  1. Ensure the battery is fully charged.

  2. Set the battery in the battery bracket.

  3. Place the battery cover on the battery bracket.

  4. Secure the two battery cover screws.

  5. Connect and tighten the positive (red) cable 1 to the positive terminal first.

  6. Connect and tighten the negative (black) cable 2 to the negative terminal last.

    CAUTION
    Verify the battery cables and wiring harness do not come into contact with the brake disc. Move the wiring harness/cables behind the chassis tube and away from the brake disc.

  7. Verify the cables are properly routed.

  8. Re-install the seat. Ensure it latches securely.
