The longevity and safety of the snowmo-

bile can be increased by making periodic

checks of the items in the preceding

checklist.
If, at any time, abnormal noises, vibra-

tions, or improper working conditions of

any component of this snowmobile are

detected, DO NOT OPERATE THE

SNOWMOBILE. Take the snowmobile

to an authorized Arctic Cat Snowmobile

dealer for inspection and adjustment or

repair. If not under warranty, this service

is at the discretion and expense of the

snowmobile owner.
The snowmobile should be taken to an

authorized Arctic Cat Snowmobile dealer

at the end of each snowmobiling season

for general inspection and for off-season

storage servicing. This inspection and

servicing is at the expense of the snow-

mobile owner.

Air Cleaner/Filter

(TZ1 Turbo Models)

The air filter inside the air cleaner hous-

ing must be kept clean to provide good

engine power and gas mileage. If the

snowmobile is used under normal condi-

tions, inspect the filter weekly and

replace the filter at the intervals speci-

fied. If operated in adverse conditions,

inspect and service the filter more fre-

quently. Use the following procedure to

remove the filter and to inspect and/or

replace it.

1. Remove the air cleaner cover; then

remove the air filter.

2. Inspect the air filter for dirt or dam-

age.

3. Clean any debris from inside the air

intake plenum.

4. Place the new filter (if necessary)

into the plenum; then secure the air

cleaner cover onto the plenum.

Fuel System

In-Line Fuel Filter (Bearcat

570/T570 Models)

Arctic Cat recommends that the in-line

fuel filter be checked weekly. The in-line

fuel filter is located just in front of the

fuel pump inlet fitting. The filter must be

clean to allow the fuel hose to transmit

the amount of gasoline required.
If the in-line fuel filter is obstructed, gas-

oline flow will be restricted; therefore,

the filter must be replaced. To remove

and install the in-line fuel filter, use the

following procedure:

1. Pinch off the fuel hose between the

gas tank and fuel filter.

2. Remove and discard the clamps;

then pry the fuel hoses off the in-line

fuel filter and remove the filter.



NOTE: The in-line fuel filter must

be replaced if obstructed. Filters are
available from an authorized Arctic
Cat Snowmobile dealer.

CAUTION

Failure to inspect the air filter fre-
quently if the snowmobile is used in
adverse conditions can damage the
turbocharger/engine.

CAUTION

Do not use compressed air in an
attempt to clean the filter. Damage to
the filter may occur. If the filter is
dirty, it must be replaced.

CAUTION

A torn air filter can cause damage to
the turbocharger/engine. Contami-
nants may get inside the turbo-
charger/engine if the filter is torn.
Carefully examine the filter for holes
or tears. Replace the filter with a new
one if it is torn.

CAUTION

Do not run the engine without the air
filter installed. Severe damage to the
turbocharger/engine will occur.

! WARNING

Whenever any maintenance or
inspection is made on the fuel sys-
tem in which there may be fuel leak-
age, there should be no welding,
smoking, open flames, etc., in the
area.
