What’s Inside the Snowmobile Checklist?

Our comprehensive snowmobile pre-season checklist covers all the key areas that need attention before you embark on your first winter ride. Whether you're inspecting the exterior or diving into more complex internal maintenance, our guide ensures that your sled is fully prepped for the season ahead. Here’s a quick look at what’s included:

Exterior Snowmobile Checks

Start by visually inspecting your sled for any cracks, peeling decals, or damaged components. The checklist also guides you through essential tasks like making sure your headlights and tail lamps are functioning and checking your gear bag. Don’t forget to ensure your bag includes critical items such as a shovel, first aid kit, and fire starter, which are necessary for long backcountry rides.

Track and Skis Inspection

A snowmobile’s performance heavily depends on the condition of its track and skis. Our checklist helps you inspect for wear and tear, check track tension and alignment, and make sure your skis are aligned properly for a smooth ride. A well-maintained track is key to tackling tough winter terrain with ease.

Internal Snowmobile Maintenance

Next, dive into the internal maintenance of your sled. This part of the checklist guides you through checking fluid levels, inspecting the belt condition, and assessing the overall health of your engine components. Clean and debris-free drive and driven clutches are essential to keeping your snowmobile running smoothly throughout the season.

Turbo Snowmobile Maintenance

If your sled is turbocharged, we’ve got you covered! Our checklist includes specific maintenance steps for turbo snowmobiles to ensure maximum performance. From inspecting your turbo to checking for leaks, these steps will help you get the most out of your snowmobile’s turbo system, ensuring power and efficiency in every ride.
