Rear and Auxiliary Brake
Rear Brake
The rear brake is a hydraulic disc type brake which is activated by the
same lever which activates the front brake system. The rear brake
system is self adjusting and requires no maintenance other than
periodic checks of the pads for wear.
S Pads should be changed when the friction material is worn to 3/64″
(.1 cm) which is about the thickness of a dime.
S Inspect the brake disc spline and pad wear surface for excessive
wear.
Auxiliary Brake Systems
Your ATV’s auxiliary brake system is intended to be used as a backup
for the main brake system. Should the main system fail, the rear brake
can be activated by depressing the foot pedal on the inside of the right
floorboard. All P olaris ATVs have hydraulic brake systems. The
hydraulic auxiliary brake system will not require adjustment.
NOTE: Since this is a rear brake only, it will not be as effective as the
all wheel system.
