Check throttle safety switch

Test the throttle safety switch system on a daily basis before the vehicle is used.

With the engine idling, hold the throttle lever pin stationary by exerting pressure on the pivot pin in the direction shown in the illustration. Apply a slight amount of throttle opening.

A properly functioning switch must shut down the engine.

The throttle safety switch is designed to stop the engine whenever all pressure is removed from the throttle lever and the throttle cable or valve does not return to the normal closed position.

If excessive play develops in the throttle cable, the safety switch may be activated and will prevent the engine from starting. If the engine doesn't start and throttle safety switch malfunction is suspected, you can bring the machine to your authorized POLARIS dealer for service.
