Snowmobile Lynx 113

Of the obvious advantages of the model and this modification in particular, is that the machine is able to cover significant distances in winter off-road conditions and tow a sled with a considerable load – up to a quarter ton. Operation of the machine at an ambient temperature of minus 40 ° C is allowed.

Lynx is a model range of snowmobiles (universal) manufactured by the Ufa Engine-Building Production Association since 1991. Lynx 113 is the first model that has now been discontinued. It was a copy from an Arctic Cat snowmobile (USA), the engine capacity of which is 440 cm3, with aluminum cylinder-free cylinders coated with a layer of silicon. In order to better understand and imagine what the Model 113 Snowmobile is, you need to study its technical characteristics and operating characteristics.

As already mentioned, the Lynx 113 snowmobile has aluminum cylinders with a special coating, which became the main oversight of the designers. This circumstance contributed to the grabbing of the aluminum piston to the mating surface, and even with a small mileage the engine could fail.

Production was discontinued by the Ufa Engine-Building Production Association in 2009.

Special requirements for operation of the snowmobile Lynx 113

This model has a number of operational features that must be reckoned with, because this equipment is still operated and resold by users.

What you need to know:

• Do not change the oil and fuel specified in the instruction manual for their other types. The use of gasoline with methanol content, for example, can adversely affect the operation of the engine and significantly reduce its mileage to the current (overhaul) repair. In addition, this can degrade both the performance of the machine and damage the power system.
• If the snowmobile is in a sludge in a warm box, then the tank should not be completely filled, as the fuel expands, and part of it may spill out.
• Running the snowmobile Lynx 113 should be at least 300 km., At which the maximum speed is not more than 45 km / h. without additional cargo and passenger. Recommended during break-in with a frequency of 5-10 km. accelerate the car briefly to a mark of 60km / h.
• During operation, it is necessary to check the working condition of the spark plugs for carbon deposits and burning electrodes. In addition, it is necessary to control and set (if necessary) the correct gaps between them.
• If the snowmobile is equipped with a 33 mm belt, then the maximum speed should not exceed 90 km / h, and with a 28 mm belt it is permissible no more than 75 km / h.
• It is impossible to allow long (more than five minutes) engine idling – this leads to carbonization and coking of the piston rings.

Exceeding the above maximum speeds, especially a long one, leads to overheating of the engine, and, as a result, burnout of the pistons!

Security measures

In order for the operation of the snowmobile to be a joy to its owner, and, on the contrary, not to cause injuries or accidents, the following safety rules must be observed:

1. Any maintenance should only be carried out with the engine turned off.
2. Do not stand in front of the snowmobile when the engine is running.
3. It is strictly forbidden to operate the machine without shrouds that enclose rotating parts!
4. Refueling is carried out only with the engine turned off. Gasoline must not get on a hot engine. Refueling is carried out only with a ventilated place. No smoking allowed! The fuel plug is removed slowly because the fuel in the tank may be under pressure.
5. Do not start the engine with the variator belt removed.
6. It is forbidden to start the snowmobile motor if the bolt that secures the centrifugal regulator is not tightened.
7. It is not allowed to touch the hands to the wires with the engine running, which go from the magneto to the transformers.

When starting the engine, the starter cord must not be wound around the hand.

Features of the rear suspension of the snowmobile Lynx 113

It is unlikely that you can find the Lynx 113 snowmobile, on which the rear suspension is in perfect condition.

However, this does not mean at all that its repair or even complete restoration is impossible – all components and parts are for sale in specialized stores as well as in online stores.

Alternative snowmobile models Lynx

As already mentioned. Lynx 113 has long been discontinued, and other snowmobiles of the same brand have come to replace it. It is worth talking about them separately.

The main representatives of the Lynx “family” of snowmobiles are (except for the 113th) model:

1. 119
2. 440
3. 500

They have been modernized, much has changed, their reliability has improved.

Lynx 119

To replace the already known one hundred and thirteenth modifications began to admit Lynx 119.

Differences:

• The new design of the hood, as well as the bottom pan of the engine compartment. Instead of the previously used brittle fiberglass, manufacturers used plastic.
• The engine has been upgraded. The volume was reduced to 432 cm3. Cylinders were made with wider purge windows. Sleeves are applied. All these innovations improved engine cooling and reduced the likelihood of pistons jamming on a hot engine.
• They used a wide caterpillar, which was highly appreciated by hunters, border guards and geologists. This has greatly improved the cross-country ability on various types of snow.

Tests of the new (at that time) model were carried out in the harsh conditions of Yakutia, in which the snowmobile proved to be much better than the previous car. It is convenient to operate – the steering wheel does not hurt the knees at the sharpest turns, and the foot platforms make it possible to feel comfortable. The seat is soft.

The simplicity of the design allows for minor repairs at home.
