How to prevent drive belt wear or burn on my Polaris Offroad Vehicle?
- JJason OrtizJul 29, 2025
To prevent drive belt wear or burn on your Polaris Offroad Vehicle, avoid driving onto tall trailers or steep inclines in high range; instead, use low range. When driving at low speeds (3-7 MPH), either increase your speed or use low range more frequently. Warm the engine for at least 5 minutes, especially in low temperatures, by briefly advancing the throttle in neutral. Use the throttle quickly and effectively for better clutch engagement. When hauling heavy cargo, plowing, or stuck in mud or snow, use low range only. If climbing over large objects from a stopped position, shift to low range and use quick, aggressive throttle, but be careful to avoid losing control or rolling over.
