Guidelines for a Safe, Fun, and Memorable Snowmobile Fun-Venture
Please have driver’s license ready and your credit card or cash for your damage deposit.
On The Trails!
1. Rule Number One: Stay on the trail. 2. Pay attention to trail signs and always stop before crossing roads. 3. Your headlights will lead the way. Do not feel you need to race to “keep up”. Plan stops at each stop sign with your group. Drive defensively! 4. Keep to the right of the trail when riding, and when meeting oncoming traffic. Always be aware of hand signals of other traffic. If you are the lead rider in your group, gesture to each passing sled the number of riders in your group (using the fingers of your left hand, indicate how many riders are in your group). Subsequent riders should also indicate how many riders are behind him or her. The last rider in your group should hold up a clenched fist, letting oncoming traffic know when your group is clear. 5. When leaving the snowmobiles unattended, take the keys and helmet with you. 6. Before leaving again, remember to let the sleds idle for 3 minutes before taking off, (parked for an hour of more). 7. Check the oil reservoir at each fuel stop and top off with 2-stroke oil if needed. 8. If the oil light comes on, check levels frequently. You may have to tow the snowmobile to the nearest gas station to fill with oil. DO NOT RUN the snowmobile if the oil reservoir is empty. 9. Never use a glove to clear debris, snow or ice from the windshield or the shield on your helmet. This will damage them (hence, the damage deposit requirement).
1. Inspect the snowmobile one last time. You are responsible for ANY damage incurred while renting the snowmobile. Please take pictures 2. Verify that you have a copy of the rental agreement. 3. If renting a trailer, secure the snowmobiles with tie-downs by screwing in to the trailer, straps and ensure by double checking that hitch is fixed properly before departing. 4. Verify that you have enough gas in the snowmobile to make it to your next stop. 5. Let each snowmobile idle for 10 minutes before departure. 6. Each snowmobile should be able to run 60-80 kilometers between refueling. Plan your stops accordingly.
1. Return all items used on the trip. You are responsible for lost items and will be charged accordingly. 2. Report any problems encountered or damage that occurred while the snowmobile was in your possession. 3. Review the snowmobile with a MURPHY’S CRAFT RENTAL INC. representative. Please take pictures.
