Washing Your Snowmobile
Keeping your snowmobile clean will not only improve its appearance
but it can also extend the life of various components. With a few
precautions, your sled can be cleaned much like an automobile.
The best and safest way to clean your sled is with a garden hose and a
pail of mild soap and water. Use a professional type washing mitten,
cleaning the upper body first and the lower parts last. Rinse with water
frequently and dry with a chamois to prevent water spots.
NOTE: If warning labels are damaged, contact your a Polaris dealer
for free replacement.
If a high pressure type car wash system is used, extreme care must be
taken to avoid water damage to the hood, console, nosepan, decals, and
warning labels. Many expensive repair bills can result from using high
pressure detergent systems.
NOTE: If a high pressure car wash is used, grease all zerk fittings
immediately after washing. Also run the vehicle to evaporate
any water that might have entered the engine or exhaust
system.
Waxing Your Snowmobile
Your snowmobile can be waxed with any high quality brand of
automotive paste wax. Avoid the use of harsh cleaners since they can
scratch the body finish.
