Thanks for the info. I guess I won't have to worry about it for a while... we got 11" of snow last night. :cool:

I realize it needs snow or ice chips, that's why in my subject line, I asked if the studded track will provide enough "snow" to lubricate the Hyfax... do the studs throw up enough stuff?

On an air-cooled sled, is it OK to run on bare ice with a studded track?

I'd be happy to share it but I think it's too large (13+ MB) to upload? PM me if there's an easy way for me to share it.

There was an add-on kit to insure the early Edge series 550 fan-cooled models drew in cold air vs. the hot air from right next to the muffler. The kit involved bolting on a duct over the recoil side fan intake that had to be matched with a hole cut in the hood. I was just given a 2006 550...

I found a downloadable .pdf copy on sale for $6.48 on the big auction site. It was available for download immediately and is complete and high quality. Mission accomplished...

I just received a new belt from Dennis Kirk. Their website shows the Gates G-Force 44G4553 as the exact fit for the '06 550 Classic. I just noticed that the Gates website says the 48G4553 is the correct belt. Is Dennis Kirk recommending the wrong belt? Anyone using the 44G4553?
