MAINTENANCE
Clutch System
Drive Belt Condition
Periodically check the condition and tension of the
drive belt. Inspect the belt for signs of excessive wear
(frayed edges, missing cogs, cracks) and excessive
looseness. Replace the belt if any of these conditions
exist. See Drive Belt Troubleshooting on page 153.
Always carry a spare drive belt. Store the spare belt in
the belt holder as shown. When placing the belt in the
holder, orientate the belt to match the profile of the
hood.
For improved drive-away during extremely cold
temperatures, remove the belt and warm it to room
temperature. Reinstall it before starting the
snowmobile.
QUICKDRIVE Belt Condition (if equipped)
Periodically check the condition of
the QUICKDRIVE belt. Inspect the
belt for signs of excessive wear,
frayed edges, missing cogs and
cracks.
Replace the QUICKDRIVE belt
every 2000 miles (3200 km) and
whenever inspection reveals
excessive wear or damage. Special
tools are required to remove and
install the QUICKDRIVE belt. Please
see your POLARIS dealer for this
service, or refer to the instructions
provided with the purchase of a new
belt.
Improper track tension can result in
track ratcheting, which will affect
QUICKDRIVE belt durability.
Always maintain proper track tension.
