NOTICE
This manual was written by the Yamaha Motor
Company primarily for use by Yamaha dealers and
their qualified mechanics. It is not possible to put an
entire mechanic's education into one manual, so it
is assumed that persons using this book to perform
maintenance and repairs on Yamaha snowmobiles
have a basic understanding of the mechanical con-
cepts and procedures inherent in snowmobile
repair. Without such knowledge, attempted repairs
or service to this model may render it unfit and/or
unsafe to use. Yamaha Motor Company, Ltd. is
continually striving to improve all models manufac-
tured by Yamaha. Modifications and significant
changes in specifications or procedures will be for-
warded to all authorized Yamaha dealers and will,
where applicable, appear in future editions of this
manual.
