Pre-Season Prep & Track Inspection

Nothing ruins the first good snowfall of the year like a sled that won't start or fails on the trail. Pre-season prep catches the issues that developed during summer storage before they strand you — battery drain, stale fuel varnish, a dry-rotted belt, or a track that seized against the slide rails after months of sitting.

What's Included

• Battery test and charge, terminals cleaned
• Fuel system inspection — old fuel drained and replaced if stabilizer wasn't used
• Drive belt and clutch inspection
• Track tension and alignment check, slide rail and hyfax condition assessed
• Chaincase oil level check
• Brake system inspection and fluid check
• Lights, gauges, and heated grip function test
• Full test start and warm-up check for unusual noises or smoke

Why This Matters in Nova Scotia

Our snow season is short and unpredictable — when conditions are good, riders want to be out immediately, not waiting on repairs. A sled that sat all summer in a garage or shed accumulates small issues that don't show up until you actually try to run it hard on the trail. Getting ahead of pre-season prep means your first ride of the season is trouble-free instead of a tow home.

Book Early

We recommend booking pre-season service in September or October, before the rush that hits the moment the first real snow arrives. Sleds booked in-season during a snap cold spell often face longer wait times simply due to volume.
