Default changes to sportsman for winter use?

going to use my sp500 for the first time in winter for ice fishing and am getting ready to "go thru it" after this spring to fall season. Is there any adjustments or changes that are an option for cold use? I know for snomobiles you adjust jets, etc but they're 2 stroke. thanks for any input.

No changes, just make sure that you don't pack too much snow in behind the radiator. If you go playing around in the really deep snow, you run the risk of packing so much snow back there that the radiator fan can't turn, burning the fan motor out. The fan is $250 uninstalled, so it is something you don't want to do too often.
