MAINTENANCE

Fall Tune-Up

For maximum performance, arrange for a fall service tune-up with your
POLARIS dealer. His experienced and trained service technician will
keep your snowmobile in peak operating condition.

Transporting the Snowmobile

Whenever the snowmobile is transported:

1. Be sure the fuel cap and oil cap are installed correctly.

2. Tie the snowmobile to the transporting unit securely using suitable

straps.

3. Remove the ignition key to prevent loss.

Extended Storage

Off-season or extended storage of your snowmobile requires preventive
measures to aid against deterioration and to prolong the useful life of
many components. See page 116 for the part numbers of POLARIS
products.

Cleaning and Preservation

Proper storage starts with cleaning, washing, and waxing the hood, side
panels, chassis, and plastic parts. Wipe down remaining surfaces with a
damp cloth. Clean and touch up with paint any rusted or previously
painted surfaces. Be sure that corrosive salt and acids are removed from
surfaces before beginning preservation with waxes and rust inhibitors
(grease, oil or paint).

The snowmobile should be stored in a dry garage or shed, out of direct
sunlight, and covered with a fabric snowmobile cover. Plastic tarp may
cause condensation to form and damage snowmobile components.
