* Before installing new spark plugs at pre-season preparation, it is suggested to burn excess storage oil by starting the engine with the old spark plugs. Only perform this operation in a well-ventilated area.
**Lubricate whenever the vehicle is used in wet conditions (wet snow, rain, puddles).

Section 02 LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE
Subsection 03 (STORAGE)
STORAGE
GENERAL
Proper snowmobile storage is a necessity during the summer months or when a vehicle is not being used for more than one month.
Refer to storage column from LUBRICATION AND
MAINTENANCE CHART jointly with the present storage procedure in order to cover each and every aspect of the snowmobile storage procedure.
Any worn, broken or damaged parts should be replaced.
WARNING
Unless otherwise specified, engine should be turned off for storage procedure.
VEHICLE CLEANING
To facilitate the inspection and ensure adequate lubrication of components, it is recommended to clean the entire vehicle.
Remove any dirt or rust.
To clean the entire vehicle, use only flannel cloths or equivalent.
CAUTION: It is necessary to use flannel cloths or equivalent on windshield and hood to avoid damaging further surfaces to clean.
To clean the entire vehicle, including bottom pan and metallic parts use BOMBARDIER Cleaner (P/N
293 110 001 (spray can 400 g) and P/N 293 110 002
(4 L)).
CAUTION: Do not use BOMBARDIER Cleaner on decals or vinyl.
For vinyl and plastic parts, use Vinyl & Plastic Cleaner
(P/N 413 711 200 (6 x 1 L)).
To remove scratches on windshield or hood use
BOMBARDIER Scratch Remover Kit (P/N 861 774
800).
CAUTION: Never clean plastic parts or hood with strong detergent, degreasing agent, paint thinner, acetone, products containing chlorine, etc.
0
Inspect the hood and repair any damage.
Touch up all metal spots with touch-up paint where paint has been scratched off.
Spray all bare metal parts including shock chromed rods with BOMBARDIER LUBE (P/N 293 600 016).
Wax the hood and the painted portion of the frame for better protection.
NOTE: Apply wax on glossy finish only.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT
Keep clean of grass, twigs, cloth, etc. These are combustible under certain conditions.
BATTERY
Remove battery, clean its tray and its exterior surface. Charge battery as explained in BATTERY section.
FUEL STABILIZER
With the new fuel additives, it is critical to use the fuel stabilizer (P/N 413 408 600) (250 mL) to prevent fuel deterioration, gum formation and fuel system components corrosion. Follow manufacturer’s instructions for proper use.
Pour fuel stabilizer in fuel tank prior to starting engine for internal parts lubrication so that stabilizer flows everywhere in fuel system.
After engine starting, use primer several times so that stabilizer flows inside it.
Do not drain fuel system.
CAUTION: Fuel stabilizer should be added prior to engine lubrication to ensure carburetor protection against varnish deposit.
ENGINE LUBRICATION
Engine internal parts must be lubricated to protect them from possible rust formation during the storage period.

Section 02 LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE
Subsection 03 (STORAGE)
Proceed as follows:
Start the engine and allow it to run at idle speed until the engine reaches its operating temperature.
WARNING
Ensure the track is free of all particles which could be thrown out while it is rotating. Keep hands, tools, feet and clothing clear of track.
Ensure no one is standing in close proximity to the vehicle.
Stop the engine.
Models with a Primer
To prevent fuel from draining, primer button should be pushed all the way in.
Disconnect the outlet primer hose from the primer valve (straight coupling).

A17C0EA
1. Straight coupling
2. To intake manifold
Insert storage oil (P/N 496 014 100) nozzle into primer outlet hose.
Models with a Choke
Remove air silencers to spray storage oil into each carburetor bore.
All Models
Restart engine and run at idle speed.
Inject storage oil until the engine stalls or until a sufficient quantity of oil has entered the engine
(approximately half a can).
With the engine stopped, remove the spark plug and spray storage oil (P/N 496 014 100) into each cylinder.
Crank slowly 2 or 3 revolutions to lubricate cylinders.
Reinstall the spark plugs and the outlet primer hose or air silencers.
WARNING
This procedure must only be performed in a well-ventilated area. Do not run engine during storage period.
COUNTERSHAFT LUBRICATION
Driven pulley and brake disc must be floating on the countershaft for efficient operation. Lubricate with anti-seize lubricant (P/N 293 550 004).
CAUTION: Do not lubricate excessively as lubricant could contact and soil brake pads and/ or drive belt.
PULLEY PROTECTION
After inspection and interior cleaning of pulleys, spray BOMBARDIER LUBE (P/N 293 600 016) on sheaves. Do not reinstall drive belt.
VEHICLE PROTECTION
Protect the vehicle with a cover to prevent dust accumulation during storage.
CAUTION: The snowmobile has to be stored in a cool and dry place and covered with an opaque but ventilated tarpaulin. This will prevent sun rays and grime from affecting plastic components and vehicle finish.
Lift rear of vehicle until track is clear of the ground.
Install on a snowmobile mechanical stand.
NOTE: Do not release track tension.
RAGS IN AIR INTAKE AND
EXHAUST SYSTEM
Block air intake hole and exhaust system hole using clean rags.

Subsection 04 (PRESEASON PREPARATION)
PRESEASON PREPARATION
Proper vehicle preparation is necessary after the summer months or when a vehicle has not been used for more than one month.
Refer to preseason preparation column from LU-
BRICATION AND MAINTENANCE CHART jointly with the present preseason preparation procedure in order to cover each and every aspect of the snowmobile preseason preparation procedure.
Any worn, broken or damaged parts found during the storage procedure should have been replaced.
If not, proceed with the replacement.
WARNING
Unless otherwise specified, engine should be turned off for preparation procedure.

CARBURETOR CLEANING
Disassemble carburetor(s) in order to clean all internal parts. Do not hesitate to replace any jets having gum or varnish on their surfaces.
AIR FILTER CLEANING
Check that inside of air silencer is clean and dry then properly reinstall the filter.
CAUTION: These snowmobiles have been calibrated with the filter installed. Operating the snowmobile without it may cause engine damage.
FUEL FILTER REPLACEMENT
Drain fuel tank.
Remove fuel line grommet from fuel tank and pull out inlet fuel line from tank.
RAGS IN AIR INTAKE AND
EXHAUST SYSTEM
Remove rags that were installed during STORAGE preparation.
ENGINE LUBRICATION
Add 500 mL (17 U.S. oz) of recommended injection oil to the first full filled fuel tank.
A03I0GA
3 1 2
TYPICAL
1. Inlet fuel line
2. Position of grommet when installing
3. Fuel filter
Replace fuel filter. To facilitate the fuel line installation, slide grommet on fuel line about 50 mm
(2 in) away from elbow then install grommet on fuel tank and push elbow through grommet.
CLEANING OF DRIVE AND
DRIVEN PULLEYS
Clean drive and driven pulleys sheaves with Parts
Cleaner (P/N 413 711 809).
CLEANING OF BRAKE DISK
Remove any rust built-up on braking surfaces.
Clean brake disk braking surfaces with Parts
Cleaner (P/N 413 711 809).
DRIVE BELT CONDITION
Inspect belt for cracks, fraying or abnormal wear.
Replace if necessary. Make sure to install the proper belt with arrow printed on belt pointing front of vehicle.
SPARK PLUGS
Once preseason preparation is done, start engine with the old spark plug(s) to burn excess storage oil. Then, install new properly gapped spark plug(s).
