MAINTENANCE
Periodic Maintenance Chart
Careful periodic maintenance will help keep your vehicle in the safest, most reliable condi-
tion. Inspection, adjustment and lubrication of important components are explained in the
periodic maintenance chart.
Inspect, clean, lubricate, adjust and replace parts as necessary. When inspection reveals the
need for replacement parts, use genuine POLARIS parts available from your POLARIS
dealer.
Record maintenance and service in the Maintenance Log beginning on page 100.
Tip: Service and adjustments are important for proper vehicle operation. If you're not familiar with safe
service and adjustment procedures, have a qualified dealer perform these operations.
Vehicles subjected to heavy or severe use patterns must be inspected and serviced more fre-
quently.
Severe Use Definition
• Frequent immersion in mud, water or sand
• Frequent or prolonged operation in dusty environments
• Racing or race-style high RPM use
• Prolonged low speed, heavy load operation
• Extended idle
• Short trip cold weather operation
Pay special attention to the oil level. A rise in oil level during cold weather can indicate con-
taminants collecting in the oil sump or crankcase. Change oil immediately if the oil level
begins to rise. Monitor the oil level, and if it continues to rise, discontinue use and determine
the cause or see your dealer.
