Description
For over a century, Gates has driven innovation in belt technology to power the machines that move you. Gates® G-Force C12 CVT belt drives are engineered to navigate the toughest off-road trails with power and efficiency. The industry's first CVT belt with carbon tensile cord also features a trapezoid top-notch and rounded cog design for superior flexibility and heat dissipation, along with a unique gum adhesion that reduces fiber pullout within the belt extending the life of the belt. Gates combines material science and process engineering to create innovative products that provide performance, reliability and the strength to withstand even the most challenging off-road environments. Continuous innovation isn't just what we do. It's who we are.
WHY G-FORCE C12 BELTS?

Vehicle Information
Arctic Cat 400 ATV (1998-2015)
The Arctic Cat 400 series, produced from 1998 to 2015, is a versatile ATV known for its utility and recreational capabilities. Throughout its production, it featured various engine displacements and trim levels. Early models (around 1998-2001) often used a 371cc liquid-cooled engine. A significant shift occurred around 2001-2003 with the introduction of a 376cc air/oil-cooled engine, which became prevalent in many 400 models. In 2004, the sport-oriented DVX 400 was introduced, featuring a distinct 398cc DOHC liquid/air-cooled engine. Later, around 2009, the 366cc H1 air/oil-cooled engine became standard for many utility models. While most models used carburetors, some later versions, particularly in the 2010s, began to incorporate Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI). Trims like 2x4, 4x4, Automatic, TRV (Two-Rider Vehicle), and TBX (tilting cargo bed) offered diverse options for different needs. Q: How do I find parts specific to my Arctic Cat 400?
A: Please use the year and edition selector on this page to ensure compatibility with your specific model.
Maintenance
| Component | Interval | Details |
| Engine Oil and Oil Filter | Initial: 10 hours or 160 km. Subsequent: 50 hours, 800 km, or annually, whichever comes first. | If using synthetic oil, the interval may be extended to 1 600 km or annually. |
| Air Filter | Check/Clean frequently (every 10 hours). Clean or replace if dirty, clogged, or damaged. | Replace if torn, damaged, or after one year. Regular cleaning is crucial, especially in dusty conditions. |
| Spark Plug | Inspect around 100 hours. | Replace as needed based on inspection for wear or buildup. |
| CVT Belt (Drive Belt) | Inspect around 100 hours. | Replace at the first sign of damage. |
| Coolant | Change every 200 hours or every 2 years. |
Maintenance intervals may vary slightly by year and model. Always consult your ATV's owner's manual for the most accurate information.
