Storage Tips
Battery Storage
Remove the battery from the vehicle and ensure that it’s fully charged
before placing it in storage. See page 101 for instructions.
Storage Area/Covers
Set t he tire pressure and safely support t he ATV with the tires 1-2” off
the ground. Be sure the storage area is well ventilated, and cover the
mac hine with a genuine Polaris ATV cover. NOTE: Do not use plastic
or coa ted mater ials. They do not allow enough ventila tion to preve nt
conde nsation, and ma y promote corrosion and oxidation.
Transporting an AT V
Follow these procedures when
transporting an ATV.
1. Turn off t he engine and remove
the key to prevent loss during
transporting.
2. Turn the fuel valve off.
3. Be sure the fuel cap, oil cap and
seat are installed correctly and
securely.
4. Always tie the frame of the ATV
to the transporting unit securely
using suitable straps or rope. The
rack, bumper or handlebars do
not offer enough support for
tie-down while transporting the
unit.
5. Always place the transmission in
gear and l ock the parking brake.
