REAR MASTER CYLINDER
Overview
Polaris disc brake systems are light weight, low maintenance and perform well in the conditions ATVs routinely
encounter. However, there are a few things to remember when replacing disc brake pads or performing brake system
service to ensure proper system function and maximum pad service life.
• Perform a brake burnishing procedure after installing new pads to maximize service life.
• Optional pads are available to suit conditions in your area. Select a pad to fit riding style and environment.
• Do not over-fill the master cylinder fluid reservoir.
• Make sure the brake lever and pedal returns freely and completely.
• Adjust stop pin on caliper (if applicable) after pad service.
• Check and adjust master cylinder reservoir fluid level after pad service.
• Make sure atmospheric vent on reservoir is unobstructed.
• Test for brake drag after any brake system service and investigate cause if brake drag is evident.
• Make sure caliper moves freely on guide pins (where applicable).
• Inspect caliper piston seals for foreign material that could prevent caliper pistons from returning freely.
CAUTION
Use only DOT-approved brake fluid as an assembly aid for all procedures described in this chapter to prevent brake
system contamination.
DO NOT USE LUBRICANTS OF ANY KIND FOR ASSEMBLY, AS THEIR USE CAN CAUSE RUBBER
COMPONENTS TO SWELL.
