POLARIS VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (PVT)
SYSTEM
WARNING
Failure to comply with the instructions in this warning can result in severe injury
or death.
Do not modify any component of the PVT system. Doing so may reduce its
strength so that a failure may occur at a high speed. The PVT system has been
precision balanced. Any modification will cause the system to be out of
balance, creating vibration and additional loads on components.
The PVT system rotates at high speeds, creating large amounts of force on
clutch components. As the owner, you have the following responsibilities for
your own safety and the safety of others:
• Always follow all recommended maintenance procedures. Always look for
and remove debris inside and around the clutch and vent system when
replacing the belt.
• See your dealer or other qualified service person as recommended in the
owner’s manual and on safety labels.
• This PVT system is intended for use on POLARIS products only. Do not
install it in any other product.
• Always make sure the PVT housing is securely in place during operation.
Belt slip is responsible for creating excessive heat that destroys belts, wears
clutch components and causes outer clutch covers to fail. Switch to low range
while operating at slower speeds to extend the life of the PVT components (belt,
cover, etc.).
