MAINTENANCE

Clutch System

Periodically inspect clutch sheaves for damage, wear or belt residue. To

maintain optimum performance, clean with non-oil based cleaners such

as isopropyl alcohol.

WARNING! If you become aware of higher than normal clutch engagement or

an unusual vibration or shift pattern, see your dealer immediately. Do not

operate the snowmobile until repairs have been made.

All clutch maintenance and repairs must be performed by an authorized

Polaris dealer. Any unauthorized modifications to clutches, such as add-

ing or removing weights, will void the warranty.

NOTICE: The bushings in the weights and rollers of Polaris clutches are made

of a material that may be damaged if lubricated. Do not lubricate

clutch bushings.

Clutch Alignment Offset

Clutch alignment offset is important for maintaining optimum perfor-

mance. See your dealer for service and adjustments. A special tool is

required to check for proper alignment.

Clutch Center Distance

See your Owner's Manual Supplement for recommended center distance

for your snowmobile. If adjustment is necessary, see your dealer.
