Control functions 8 ESU10292 Main switch The main switch controls the ignition and lighting systems. The various positions are described below. Off The ignition circuit is sw itched off. The key can be removed onl y in this position. On The ignition circuit is sw itched on.
Control functions 9 tle valves fail to return to the idle position when the throttle lever is relea sed. (See page 76 for the clutch engagement speed .
Control functions 10 ● a digital speedometer (which sho ws the riding speed) ● an odometer (which shows the total dis- tance traveled) ● a tripmeter (which shows the distance trav- eled since it.
Control functions 11 ESU10472 Low coolant temperature indi- cator light “” The low coolant temperature indicator light comes on when th e coolant temperature is low and informs the rider that the snowmobile should be warmed up. After the engine is started, warm it up until th e indicator light goes off.
Control functions 12 TIP The snowmobile must be s topped on a level surface to obtain an ac curate fuel meter read- ing, since the reading changes according to the movement and inclination of the snowmo - bile.
Control functions 13 If the oil level w arning indicator and the w arn- ing light come on, place the snowmobile on a level surface and a llow it to idle for one minute. If the oil level w arning indicator and the w arn- ing light go off, the engine oil level is sufficient, however it is getting low.

Control functions 20 2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Stop filling when the fuel reaches the bottom of the filler tube. Because fuel expands when it heats up, heat from the engine or the sun can cause fuel to spill out of the fuel tank. 3. Wipe up any sp illed fuel immediately.
Control functions 21 settings may allow more precise handling and control over certain types of terrain or riding conditions. If you are not familiar with suspension adjus t- ments, have a Yamaha dealer make these adjustments.
Control functions 22 3. Tighten the lock nut to the s pecified torque. NOTICE: Always tighten the locknut against the adjusting nut, and then tighten the locknut to the speci- fied torque.
Control functions 23 TIP If the shock absorber has no air pressure, the gauge reading will be zero. 5. To increase the air pressure, operate the pump a few times. The pressure should increase slowl y. If the pressure increases rapidly, check to mak e sure that the pump is properly connected and tig ht- ened onto the air valv e.
Control functions 24 ESU10925 Adjusting the damping forces of the front sho ck ab sorb ers ( FX10) W ARNI NG EWS00740 The damping forces of the left and right shock absorbers must be adjusted to the same settings. Uneven settings can cause poor handling and loss of stability.
Control functions 25 Center shock absorber 1. Loosen the locknut. 2. To increase the s pring preload and there- by harden the s uspension, turn the ad - justing nut in direction (a). To decrease the spring preload and thereby soften the suspension, turn the adjusting nut in di- rec ti on (b ).

Pre-operation checks 30 ESU11071 Inspect your vehicle each tim e you use it to make sure the vehicle is in safe operating c ondition. Always follow the inspection and mai ntenance procedures and schedules described in the Owner ’ s Manual.
Pre-operation checks 31 Drive track • Check f or deflection, wear and damage. • If necessar y , have Y amaha dealer replace track. 63 Slide runners • Check f or wear and dam age. • If necessar y , have Y amaha dealer replace slide runners. 63 Steering • Check f or excessive free pla y .
Operation 32 ESU13210 TIP This model is equipped with an engine oil pressure switch to stop the engine in case an engine oil press ure drop is detected.
Operation 33 ESU11310 Break- in There is never a more important period in the life of your engine than the period between 0 and 500 km (300 mi). For this reason, you should read the following material carefully . Since the engine is brand new, do n ot put an excessive load on it for the first 500 km (300 mi).
Operation 34 The beginning operator s hould select a large flat area to become famil iar with the snowmo - bile. Make sure that this area is free of obsta- cles and other traffic . You should practice control of the throttle a nd brake, and master turning techniques in this area before trying more difficult terrain.
Operation 35 risk of an accident. Do not try steeper or more difficult inclines until you have de- veloped your skill on gentle slopes. You should practice first on gentle slopes. Try more difficult c limbs only after you hav e de- veloped your skill.
Operation 36 the seat and the foot of your uphill leg on the running board. This position will make it easi - er for you to shift your body weight as need ed. Snow and ice are slippery, so be prepared for the possibility that your snowmobile c ould be- gin to slip sidew ays on the slope.
Operation 37 ● Always check the drive tr ack for damage or maladjustment before operating the snowmobile. ● Do not operate the snowmobile if you find damage to the drive track. NOT ICE ECS00350 Ride on fresh snow frequently. Operating on ice or hard-packed snow will rapidly wear the slide runners.
Operation 38 ● Keep the right hand on the right handle- bar grip for steering, and grip the strap with the left hand to shift weight uphill for balance during traverse riding. ● Ride cautiously while using the strap. Do not accelerate or decelerate abruptly while holding onto the strap.
Operation 39 3. Press the throttle lever slowly to mov e the snowmobile. 4. Turn the handlebar in the desired direc - tion. 5. Squeeze the brake leve r to stop the snowmobile. 6. Apply the parking brake b y moving the parking brake lever to the left. ESU11411 Stopping the engine ● Turn the main sw itch to the off pos ition to stop the engine.
