NOTE:
Track
tension and alignment
are
inter-related. Do not adjust one
without
the other.
Alignment
Start the engine and accelerate slightly
so
that track turns slowly. Check that the
track
is
well centered; equal distance on
both sides between edges of track guides
and
slider shoes.
WARNING: Before checking track
alignment, ensure
that
the track
is
free
of
all
particles
which
could be
thrown out while track
is
rotating. Keep
hands, tools,
feet
and clothing clear of
track. Ensure no-one
is
standing
in
close
proximity
to
the
vehicle.
To
correct, stop
the
engine, loosen the
rear idler wheels retaining screws then
loosen the lock nuts and tighten the ad-
juster bolt on side where the slider shoe
is
the farthest to the track insert guides.
Tighten lock nuts and the idler wheel
re-
taining screws.

Restart engine, rotate track slowly and
recheck alignment.
Drive Pulley
These vehicles
are
equipped with the lat-
est
in
snowmobile transmission system.
The TRA drive pulley
(Total
Range
Adjust-
able). This pulley includes three (3) cali-
bration screws that provide the opportu-
nity to perform minor adjustments to the
clutch
in
order to keep the engine at it's
peak power R.PM., thereby maintaining
optimal vehicle performance.
The clutch
is
factory adjusted position
three (3) to provide the best performance
under most riding conditions at
sea
level.
However certain conditions, such
as
deep
snow, high altitude, pulling a load, etc.
may allow the engine to run below
it's
peak power R.PM. at wide open throttle
thus decreasing the vehicle performance.
Should such conditions be encountered
the calibration screws can then
be
reset
to allow the engine to operate at it's
peak
power R.PM. (given
in
technical data
as
max.
HP
R.P.M.).
The adjustment may
be
set at any one
of
six (6) positions, numbered from 1 to
6.
Note that for casting purposes numer-
al
one
(1)
appears
as
a dot.
Each
of these
positions provides an increase or a de-
crease,
in
numerical order, of the engine
speed
by
approximately
200
R.P.M.
