Washing Tips

  • Avoid the use of harsh cleaners, which can damage the finish.

  • Do not use medium to heavy duty compounds on the finish.

  • Always use clean cloths and pads for cleaning and polishing. Old or reused cloths and pads may contain dirt particles that will scratch the finish.

  • Do not use high-speed polishers/buffers on body panels, as damage or color fading may occur.

  • Do not spray water directly into the intake ducts.

If a high pressure water system is used for cleaning, exercise extreme caution. The maximum pressure should not exceed 3000 PSI, 2.5 GPM with a 40° pressure washer nozzle. Make sure to keep the pressure washer nozzle 2 ft (.6 m) from the vehicle away from the surface being cleaned. The water may damage components and could remove paint and labels. Avoid directing the water stream at the following items:

  • Wheel bearings

  • Radiator

  • Transmission seals

  • Brakes

  • Cab and body panels

  • Labels and decals

  • Electrical components and wiring

  • Air intake components

  • Throttle and shift cables and controls

  • Seat Belts

  • Seats


WARNING
Spilled oil left on engine components or in the engine area may pose a fire hazard. Use shop rags to clean any spilled oil. If needed, use a non-flammable solvent on the rag to aid in the cleaning process. Do not use any device such as a pressurized water or air as this may disperse the oil onto engine components and could pose a fire hazard.
WARNING
Clean seat belts with warm water. Avoid damaging seat belts:

  • Do not use bleach, dye or household detergents.

  • Never use lubricant on any seat belt component.

  • Do not use a pressure washer to clean the seat belts.

If warning and safety labels are damaged, contact your POLARIS dealer for free replacement.

Grease all zerk fittings (if applicable) immediately after washing. Allow the engine to run for a while to evaporate any water that may have entered the engine or exhaust system.
