Washing the Vehicle
Keeping your POLARIS vehicle clean will not only improve its
appearance but it can also extend the life of various components.
NOTICE: High water pressure may damage components. POLARIS
recommends washing the vehicle by hand or with a garden hose,
using mild soap.
The best and safest way to clean your POLARIS vehicle is with a
garden hose and a pail of mild soap and water.
1. Use a professional-type washing cloth, cleaning the upper body first
and the lower parts last.
2. Rinse with clean water frequently.
3. Dry surfaces with a chamois to prevent water spots.
Washing Tips
• Avoid the use of harsh cleaners, which can scratch the finish.
• Do not use a power washer to clean the vehicle.
TIP:If a high pressure car wash is used (not recommended), grease all zerk
fittings immediately after washing. Remove the spindle shafts and lubricate
the bushings on the top and bottom of the trailing arm. Also run the vehicle
to evaporate any water that might have entered the engine or exhaust
system.
• 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.
• If any label becomes illegible or comes off, contact your POLARIS
dealer to purchase a replacement. Replacement safety labels are
provided by POLARIS at no charge
Waxing the Vehicle
Your snowmobile can be waxed with any high quality brand of
automotive paste wax. Avoid the use of harsh cleaners since they can
scratch the body finish.
