Limited Warranty
Arctic Cat Inc. (hereinafter referred to as Arctic Cat) extends a limited warranty as described below on each
new Arctic Cat Snowmobile it assembles and on each genuine Arctic Cat Snowmobile part and accessory
assembled and sold by an authorized Arctic Cat Snowmobile dealer. The limited warranty on an Arctic Cat
Snowmobile is extended to the original retail purchaser for the time periods described below; however, the
balance of the remaining warranty may be transferred to another party unless the purchase is for
commercial use (see below). Warranty coverage is only available in the country in which the original retail
purchase occurs to the original retail purchaser resident in that country or to a transferee resident in that
country of the balance of the remaining warranty.
Arctic Cat warrants only the products it assembles and/or sells and does not warrant that other products will
function properly when used with an Arctic Cat Snowmobile or will not damage the Arctic Cat Snowmobile.
Arctic Cat does not assume any liability for incidental or consequential damages.
Arctic Cat will repair or replace, at its option, free of charge (including any related labor charges), any parts
that are found to be warrantable in material or workmanship. This repair work MUST be done by an
authorized Arctic Cat Snowmobile dealer. No transportation charges, rental charges, or inconvenience costs
will be paid by Arctic Cat. The warranty is validated upon examination of said parts by Arctic Cat or an
authorized Arctic Cat Snowmobile dealer. Arctic Cat reserves the right to inspect such parts at its factory for
final determination if warranty should apply.
The warranty periods are as follows:
1. For snowmobiles used for recreational purposes:
—If purchased between May 1 and November 30, warranty expires ONE (1) YEAR from December 1
of the current year.
—If purchased between December 1 and April 30, ONE (1) YEAR from the date of sale.
2. For snowmobiles used for commercial purposes (including rental operations), ONE (1) YEAR from the
date of invoice and/or 5000 MILES whichever comes first (non-transferable).
3. THIRTY (30) DAYS from date of sale of snowmobile on Arctic Cat supplied batteries.
Exclusions to this warranty include normal wear, abuse (i.e. a track run on marginal snow conditions
without proper lubrication or additional idler wheels), and the following parts:
Fuel Filter Light Bulbs Windshield Drive Belt Torn or Punctured Upholstery
Wear Bars Brake Pads Spark Plugs Drive Clutch/Driven Clutch Wear Parts

The following will VOID Arctic Cat’s warranty:
1. Failure to perform the proper break-in procedure and all related maintenance, storage procedures (if
stored for extended periods), and/or service as recommended in the Operator’s Manual.
2. Repairs and/or adjustments by anyone other than an authorized Arctic Cat Snowmobile dealer.
3. Use of an improper fuel mixture ratio.
4. Use of improper carburetor jets.
5. Use of improper gasoline, lubricating oils, or spark plugs.
6. An accident or subjecting the snowmobile to misuse, abuse, or negligent operation.
7. Any modification, addition, or removal of parts unless instructed to do so by Arctic Cat.
8. Use of the snowmobile in any way for racing purposes.
9. Removal of the engine for use in another vehicle.
10. Removal or mutilation of the Vehicle Identification Number or Engine Serial Number.
11. Use of parts not sold or approved by Arctic Cat.
12. Track and tunnel damage resulting from either ice stud or hooker plate installation.
13. Damage due to improper transportation.
Arctic Cat shall not be responsible for and this limited warranty excludes recovery of economic, punitive,
consequential and incidental damages, lost profits, and loss of use. Some states or provinces do not allow
the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation may not apply to
you. Arctic Cat’s aggregate liability may not exceed the price of the product. The law of the State of
Minnesota shall apply to all claims or disputes, exclusive of its conflicts of law provisions.
IMPLIED WARRANTY EXCLUSION AND DISCLAIMER
To th e fu l les t ex ten t per mi tte d by l aw, A rct i c Cat excludes and disclaims all implied warranties of
merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose.
If you are not satisfied with warranty service or repairs, you should contact Arctic Cat at (U.S.) 1-218-681-
9851 or (Canada) 1-204-982-1656.

! WARNING
A snowmobile is a very high performance vehicle. Because it does accelerate
rapidly and is capable of very high speeds, it should not be operated by a nov-
ice or an inexperienced operator. Never accelerate rapidly or drive at high speed
beyond the limits of visibility or without being totally familiar with the terrain
and what lies in front of you. Obey speed limits and never operate at speeds
that do not allow adequate maneuvering and stopping distances. Read and
study the entire Operator’s Manual and Safety Handbook.
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury to yourself or others.
Personal Injury
•To avoid injury to yourself and others, NEVER operate the snowmobile without
first reading and understanding this manual and the Snowmobile Safety Hand-
book; then follow the instructions and heed the warnings given.
•USE COMMON SENSE.
•DONT DRINK and DRIVE.
•STAY IN CONTROL at ALL TIMES.
•TELL YOUR FRIENDS. If you see a friend operating a snowmobile recklessly, at
excessive speeds, while intoxicated, or in other unsafe ways, dont wait until it is
too late to warn of the consequences of snowmobile misuse. Such conduct
endangers everyone. TAKE AN ACTIVE ROLE IN THE SAFETY OF YOUR-
SELF AND OTHERS.

Jump-Starting
NOTE: Arctic Cat does not recom-
mend jump-starting a snowmobile
with a dead battery but rather to
remove the battery, service it, and
correctly charge it; however, in an
emergency, it may be necessary to
jump-start a snowmobile. If so, use
the following procedure to carefully
and safely complete this procedure.
NOTE: To access the battery, the
seat must be removed.
,? O*"&='"3*)B%)@$2'"&)"@'"[A%:93&/0&'(>
32$('"/*."&'0%$*/2"@))&3"/B/.?
CAUTION
These snowmobiles are not designed
to be operated in dusty conditions.
Operating the snowmobile in dusty
conditions will result in severe
engine damage.
CAUTION
On the 7000, always turn the ignition
switch key to the OFF position when
the snowmobile is not being used.
Leaving the ignition switch in the ON
position will result in discharging the
battery and possible damage to the
battery.
! WARNING
Improper handling or connecting of a
battery may result in severe injury
including acid burns, electrical burns,
or blindness as a result of an explo-
sion. Always remove rings and
watches. Any time service is per-
formed on a battery, the following
must be observed: keep sparks, open
flame, cigarettes, or any other flame
away. Always wear safety glasses.
Protect skin and clothing when han-
dling a battery. When servicing a bat-
tery in an enclosed space, keep the
area well-ventilated.

! WARNING
If any of these conditions exist, DO
NOT attempt to jump-start, boost, or
charge the battery. An explosion
could occur causing serious injury.
CAUTION
Always make sure the electrical sys-
tems are of the same voltage and
ground polarity prior to connecting
jumper cables. If not, severe electri-
cal damage may occur.
CAUTION
Failure to disconnect electronic
accessories during jump-starting
may cause system damage due to
power spikes.
! WARNING
Never make the final connection to a
battery as a spark could ignite hydro-
gen gases causing an explosion of
the battery resulting in acid burns or
blindness.

Unless the leakage is excessive,
replacement is not necessary.
NOTE: The frequency of servicing
rebuildable shock absorbers will
vary according to the types of condi-
tions and terrain the snowmobile has
been subjected to. If riding quality
deteriorates (or seems to be deterio-

! WARNING
When installing studs on a single-ply
track, it is important to use Arctic
Cat-approved studs (proper head
diameter). If approved studs (proper
head diameter) are not used, studs
could tear free of the track causing
possible injury or even death. Con-
sult an authorized Arctic Cat Snow-
mobile dealer for information.
CAUTION
To prevent tunnel damage from the
studs on the 6000, install Tunnel Pro-
tector Kit (p/n 6639-075).

! WARNING
Always balance the snowmobile with
the proper proportion between the
number of studs and carbide length
on the wear bars. Do not “over drive”
conditions; use common sense in all
operating conditions.
CAUTION
Do not use studs that are more than
9.525 mm (0.375 in.) longer than the
track lug height.
! WARNING
Do not operate a snowmobile with
loose studs as they may be thrown
from the track. Always use a shielded
safety stand whenever performing
any maintenance or adjustments.

enced (the reverse function will
make up to three attempts to engage
into reverse, and if the function is
not completed after the third
