QUICKDRIVE Belt
The QUICKDRIVE drive system (if equipped) utilizes a drive belt that exhibits extraordinary performance and service life when the belt is handled properly before and during installation. Improper handling of this belt can result in a shortened service life.
Inspect and change the belt at the intervals outlined in the Maintenance chapter. See QUICKDRIVE Belt Condition (if equipped) for inspection procedures.
Special tools are required to remove and install the QUICKDRIVE belt. Your POLARIS dealer can assist with this service, or refer to the instructions provided with the purchase of a new belt.
