Periodic Maintenance

WARNING
Do not attempt any maintenance procedures that are not described in this manual or that you are not comfortable performing. Some maintenance procedures are more extensive and may require special training, tools, and equipment. An authorized POLARIS dealer can perform any service that may be necessary for your vehicle.
WARNING
Be sure to properly reinstall all components that were removed during any maintenance. For example, some parts are made and positioned to deflect heat, and failing to reinstall heat shields properly can lead to a fire.
WARNING
Hot parts can cause burns. To avoid burns, do not touch hot components or attempt maintenance before allowing to cool. Surfaces that could be hot during and after operation can include components of the:

  • Engine and exhaust

  • Brakes

  • Shock absorbers

WARNING
Before service or maintenance, make sure the transmission is in Park and the engine is off with the key removed. Moving parts can contact body parts or clothing. Running the engine while servicing can lead to serious injury, electric shock, burns, fire, carbon monoxide poisoning, and death.
WARNING
Do not run engine with any covers removed. Contact with exposed belt or moving parts can cause serious injury.
WARNING
Vehicle fluids such as oil or brake fluid can be hazardous. Wear gloves and avoid skin contact. Always follow the handling and disposal instructions provided by the fluid manufacturer.

Severe Use Definition

Vehicles subjected to heavy or severe use patterns must be inspected and serviced more frequently. Vehicles subjected to severe use must be serviced at 50% of the stated interval. Examples of severe use include:

  • Frequent immersion in mud, water, or sand

  • Prolonged low speed, heavy load operation

  • Extended idle

  • Sustained high-RPM use

  • Frequent short trip operation in cold weather (engine frequently does not operate long enough to reach full operating temperature)

IMPORTANT

Pay special attention to the oil level. A rise in oil level during cold weather can indicate contaminants collecting in the oil sump or crankcase. Change oil immediately if the oil level begins to rise. Monitor the oil level, and if it continues to rise, discontinue use and determine the cause. Your POLARIS dealer or other authorized person can assist.
