MAINTENANCE

Tires

Wheel Removal

1. Position the vehicle on a level surface. Place the transmission in

gear. Lock the parking brake.

2. Loosen the wheel nuts slightly.

Do not service axle nuts that have a cotter pin installed. See your Polaris dealer.

3. Place a suitable stand under the

footrest frame to raise the wheel

slightly off the ground.

4. Remove the wheel nuts.
5. Remove the wheel.

Wheel Installation

1. Place the wheel on the wheel hub

with the valve stem toward the

outside and the rotation arrows on

the tire pointing toward forward

rotation.

2. Install the wheel nuts finger tight.

On vehicles with tapered rear

wheel nuts, make sure the tapered

ends of the nuts fit into the tapers

on the wheels.

3. Lower the vehicle to the ground.
4. Torque the wheel nuts to

specification (page 67).

Loose nuts could cause a tire to come off during operation, which could result in

an accident or overturn. Always ensure that all nuts are torqued to specification.
