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.

  4. Place the battery cover on the battery bracket.

  5. Secure the two battery cover screws.

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

  7. Connect and tighten the negative (black) cable 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.

  8. Route the harness ground wires 1, main battery ground cable 2, and positive (red) battery cable 3 as shown in the image. Both are routed up and over the rubber strap. If the ground wires/cable are routed down the side of the battery, they may interfere with the tab of the rear side panel. Item 4 is the constant power fuse connector.

  9. Verify the cables are properly routed.

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