INSTALLATION
All Models
Reverse the removal procedure.
NOTE: When installing the track, respect rotation
direction indicated by an arrow on track thread.
Check sprocket/track alignment as described in
DRIVE AXLE.
Track Tension and Alignment
Track tension and alignment are inter-related. Do
not adjust one without checking the other. Track
tension procedure must be carried out prior to
track alignment.
Tension
NOTE: Ride the snowmobile in snow about 15 to
20 minutes prior to adjusting track tension.
Remove the tether cord cap.
Lift rear of snowmobile and support it with a wide-
base snowmobile mechanical stand (P/N 529 020
000).
Allow the suspension to extend normally and
check gap halfway between front and rear idler
wheels. Measure between slider shoe bottom
and inside of track. The gap should be as given
in SPECIFICATIONS at the end of this guide. If
the track tension is too loose, track will have a
tendency to thump.
NOTE: A belt tension tester (P/N 414 348 200)
may be used to measure deflection as well as
force applied.
