OPERATION

Emergency Starting

If the recoil starter system fails, an emergency start strap is provided in

the tool kit.
1. Open the hood.
2. Remove the left side panel.
3. Using the belt removal tool, follow

the directions on the air box to

relieve belt tension.

4. Starting at one of the tower struts,

wind the strap counterclockwise

around the clutch as shown.

5. Pull the strap abruptly so the strap comes free of the clutch while

starting the engine. Repeat until the engine starts.

6. Reinstall the air box and side panel.
7. Close and secure the hood.

WARNING

Serious injury can result from wrapping the start strap around your hand

while using the emergency starting procedure. DO NOT wrap the start strap

around your hand. Keep all bystanders and loose clothing away from the

snowmobile when using the emergency starting procedure.
