LUBRICATION
The engine is lubricated by oilmixed with the fuel. Correct fuel-oilratio is 20:1 on models with JLO orKohler engine, and 25:1 on modelsequipped with Sachs engine.
On Model 707 with open drive chain,the chain should be lubricated with afew drops of light oil occasionally.

When vehicle is stored, remove chainand wash in kerosene or other suitablesolvent. Store the chain by submerg-ing in oil in a suitable covered pan.The spray-type chain cleaner andchain lubricant designed for motor-cycle use is also effective for openchains. On 1968 and later models thedrive chain is enclosed and runs inan oil bath.
The enclosed chaincase should con-tain 6-8 ounces of SAE 30 Motor Oil tolubricate the chain. Oil may be addedthrough plug hole (D-Fig. 2).

lustntant.

On models without plug hole, tipmachine on right side and remove cover(C-Fig, 3). The case should containabout V2-pint of SAE 20 engine oil.
Ski legs on Model 707 were equippedwith renewable nylon bushings andwere not lubricated. Later modelshave pressure fittings and should belubricated occasionally with LowTemperature Alouette Grease.
Track drive axles and bogie wheelsare equipped with sealed bearings anddo not require lubrication.

ADJUSTMENT
STEERING SKIS. On early models,disconnect tie rod from left steeringarm and adjust length of rod as nec-essary until skis are parallel whenpointing straight ahead. Shorten orlengthen steering drag link if neces-sary, until handle bars are in normalstraight driving position.
Late models are equipped with twosteering rods which must be discon-nected at one end for adjustment.Steering rods must be of equal lengthand must be installed in front hole insteering arm.
DRIVE CHAIN ADJUSTMENT.Roller drive chain should have ap-proximately y4-inch of free play whenmeasured midway between sprockets.
On Model 707, free play can be di-rectly measured and adjustment canbe made by moving bolt (7-Fig. 1)downward in slot (S). If bolt bottomsin slot, remove the bolt and reinstallin the other hole (H) in eccentrichousing (5).
Models with enclosed drive chainshould have some slack but free playcannot be directly measured. Chain ten-sion can be determined by measuringthe backlash (A and B - Fig. 2 or A - Fig.3) while rocking torque converter drivensheave. Adjustment is correct whenbacklash measures %-inch at pulley rim.Adjust by loosening the locknut andturning adjusting screw (B-Fig. 2 orC-Fig. 3).
BRAKE. Model 707 and most 1972models are equipped with a calipertype disc brake. Refer to TRACKDRIVE section of this manual foradjustment procedure.
All 1968 through 1971 and some latermachines are equipped with a shoe-typebrake as shown in Figs. 2, 3 and 4. Brakemust not drag when hand lever is re-leased but must fully engage beforehand lever contacts handlebar grip.Wear adjustment is made at brake cableanchor housing by turning nuts (A andB-Fig. 4).
Most 1972 and 1973 machines areequipped with caliper type disc brake.First make sure that brake push pinscenter in valleys of actuating arm camand that brake unit properly alignswith friction surface of driven pulley.Align if necessary by loosening theattaching bracket bolts and firmlyapplying brake. Center push pins byadjusting brake cable housing anchornuts. Brake wear adjustment is madeby turning actuating lever stud nutuntil pucks touch pulley then backing
nut off approximately Vz-turn.
TRACK. To adjust track tension,raise rear of vehicle until track isclear of ground. On Model 707, referto Fig. 5. Measure the distance (A-B)from top edge of bogie wheel supportshaft bracket to top edge of track mid-way between track axles. Distance(A-B) should be 5%-6 inches andequal on both sides of machine.
On 1968 through 1970 models, referto Fig. 6. Measure the distance (A)from lower edge of rear idler bearinghousing to edge of frame. Distanceshould be 3%-inches and equal onboth sides.
Loosen the two clamp bolts (1— F̂ig.5 or 6) and turn adjusting bolt (2)until tension is correct.

On models with bogie wheel suspen-sion, loosen pivot bolt nut (A-Fig. 7)and turn adjusting bolt (B). Both sidesmust be adjusted alike.
On 1973 Sno Brute with slide suspen-sion, loosen clamp screws (1-Fig. 8)and turn adjusting screws (2). Ride andweight adjustment is made by turningspring anchor nuts (3).
NOTE: Whenever track tension hasbeen adjusted, alignment MUST bechecked as outlined In TRACK SERVICESection ot this manual.
