manufactured in the United States. Its technological steps forward included
a drive shaft, now used in the production of most snowmobiles.

Four-stroke Kohler motor with gas tank attached.
Joystick-type accelerator.

enhance flotation.
Winch at the back to raise the drive train, adjust the track for the depth
of snow, and remove accumulated ice.

as a handbrake, roof, pulley guard, and compass. Snowmobiles were sold in
yellow in Canada, and red in the United States.
