Further, the kind of ride you have is dependent on the slack. Five to six inches of slack is recommended and remember there are machines where you can adjust the tteads for different riding conditions, including an extra rider. By now we are sure we've made the point that buying a snowmobile is like buymng a car; there are plenty of different features to consider. And there are people who specialize in snowmobiles, just as there are in automobiles. You can find them listed in the Yellow Pages of your telephone directory under two headings, "snowmobile equipment and supplies" or just plain "snowmobiles". Many dealers also selI used models. If you're buying a second hand machine, look at it carefully, ask plenty of questions about it, and test ride it before making the purchase. If you are not knowledgeable about such machines, try and take along someone who is, for there's much to be considered whether buying it from a dealer or direct from a previous owner. 0f course> it iEi important to dress properly too. First, there's the legal need for a proper helmet. t should be one that is OSA (Canadian Standards Association) certifled. Make sure it's big enough to wear a baladlava inside it. Riding on a snowniobile can be fun but it each also be a cold experience if not properly outfitted for it. The right gear When it cornes to other clothing, loose, light outer apparel over thermal underwear is best to ensure heat. One-piece snowmobile suits are said to be best. Boots should be waterproof and large enough to make sure you can wear thxck socks over light ones and stili move your t6es. Mitts with cuffs rather than gloves are better for the hands. Also take along a warm scarf, not a long one but preferabiy a short one s0 there is no danger of it catching in the machine if it should become unwound or undone. Safety first Itfs important too to have on hand the proper tools, extra lights, matches in a waterproof container, spark. plugs, and starter cable in the -event of breakdown, and when travelling far from home by snowmobile. With all these precautionis you rnight wonder if we're against snowmobiling. We're not . It's fun and for some people it is an essential winter vehicle to get things done. But:it can be-more fun if you're equipped for it and Worth a whole lot more to the person who needs it fror business if it runs smoothly and efflciently at aIl times.

NO. 6 PICKERING 686u3441 It's snowmobile time - are you ready for it? t wasn't too many years ago when the word snowmohile would have prompted a vacant stare in most circles. Now everybody knows it's a popular vehicle for both sport and essential use, as well as a dangerous one if not properly and carefully driven. It's not only the driving that is important. t is the selection of one in the first place, whether used or brand new and if used, making sure it is a type that one can still obtain part for. After aIl, since its invention, more than 100 companies have attempted the manufacture of snowmobiles, but by 1980, that number was down to six. Choosing a snowmobile The six compapies make a variety of machines *with different weight, strength and horsepower. The weight can vary from 250 pounds to 600 and the track width from 12 to, 18 inches. Some engines are eight horsepower and some 50, just te give you some idea of the variety. In fact, for the family fun machine, the best thing to go by is not horsepower but the cubic centimetre of the engine with 250 to 500 being the recommended size. You may want -in engine with an oil injection because if you don't the oil and fuel have to be mixed. Aise, electric ignition systems start more easily.
