MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Adjustments
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.
Pads should be changed when the friction material is worn to 3/64″
(.1 cm) which is about the thickness of a dime.
Inspect the brake disc spline and pad wear surface for excessive
wear.
Foot Brake
Your ATV’s foot brake 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 Polaris ATVs have hydraulic brake systems. The
hydraulic foot brake will not require adjustment.
NOTE: Since this is a rear brake only, it will not be as effective as the
all wheel system.
