POLARIS Variable Transmission (PVT) System

WARNING

Failure to comply with the instructions in this warning can result in severe injury or death. Do not modify any component of the PVT system. Doing so may reduce its strength so that a failure may occur at a high speed. The PVT system has been precision balanced. Any modification will cause the system to be out of balance, creating vibration and additional loads on components.


The PVT system rotates at high speeds, creating large amounts of force on clutch components. As the owner, you have the following responsibilities for your own safety and the safety of others:

  • Always follow all recommended maintenance procedures. Always look for and remove debris inside and around the clutch and vent system when replacing the belt.

  • See your dealer or other qualified service person as outlined in the owner's manual.

  • This PVT system is intended for use on POLARIS products only. Do not install it in any other product.

  • Always make sure the PVT housing is securely in place during operation.
