MAINTENANCE

Cleaning and Storage

Washing the Vehicle

If a high pressure water system is used for cleaning (not recommended),
exercise extreme caution. The water may damage components and could
remove paint and labels. Avoid directing the water stream at the follow-
ing items:
• Wheel bearings
• Radiator
• Transmission seals
• Brakes
• Cab and body panels
• Labels and decals
• Electrical components and wiring

If warning and safety labels are damaged, contact your POLARIS dealer
for free replacement.

Grease all zerk fittings immediately after washing. Allow the engine to
run for a while to evaporate any water that may have entered the engine
or exhaust system.

Polishing the Vehicle

POLARIS recommends the use of common household aerosol furniture
polish for polishing the finish on your POLARIS vehicle. Follow the
instructions on the container.

Polishing Tips
• Avoid the use of automotive products, some of which can scratch the

finish of your vehicle.

• Always use clean cloths and pads for cleaning and polishing. Old or

reused cloths and pads may contain dirt particles that will scratch the
finish.
