A snow lubrication device attaches to a vehicle body of a snowmobile and
includes a pair of snow rake rods extending from the vehicle body to
contact a snow surface. A snow rake member located at the end of the snow
rake rod scatters snow. The scattered snow lubricates gaps between a
track belt and the slide rail and/or between the track belt and the drive
wheel. The lubrication of the track belt improves operation of the
snowmobile if the lower part of the snow rake rod strikes a stone or the
like, the snow rake rod temporarily deflects further rearward. The snow
lubrication device has relatively few components, is low in cost, and is
hard to dislodge from a snowmobile.
