MAINTENANCE

Brakes

The rear brakes are mechanical drum type brakes activated by the brake

pedal. See page 33.
Always check brake pedal travel before each use of the vehicle. When

applied, the brake pedal should feel firm.
If you discover any irregularities in brake system operation, including

excessive pedal travel, contact your dealer for proper diagnosis and

repairs.

WARNING! Operating the vehicle with a spongy brake pedal can result in loss

of braking, which could cause an accident resulting in severe injury or death.

Never operate the vehicle with a spongy-feeling brake pedal.

Steering Wheel Inspection

Check the steering wheel for smooth operation at the intervals outlined

in the Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 57.
1. Position the vehicle on level ground.
2. Lightly turn the steering wheel left and right.
3. If there is excessive freeplay or strange noises, or the steering feels

rough or "catchy," have the steering system inspected by an autho-

rized Polaris dealer.
