MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION

Engine Oil

Always check and change the oil at the intervals outlined in the

Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 53. We recommend the

use of Polaris Premium 4 All Season Synthetic engine oil.

Oil Check

The oil dipstick and fill tube (1) is located on the engine.

1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Apply the brakes. Start the

engine and let it idle for 20-30

seconds, then stop the engine.

3. Lift the lever lock (2) to remove

the dipstick. Wipe it dry with a

clean cloth.

4. Reinstall the dipstick completely,

but do not lock it. The dipstick

must be screwed completely in to

keep the angle and depth of the

stick consistent.

5. Remove the dipstick

and check the oil level.

Maintain the oil level

in the safe range (3).

Do not overfill.

NOTE: Due to the dipstick entry

angle into the

crankcase, the oil level

will read higher on the

bottom side of the

dipstick. Always read

the level on the upper

surface (4) of the dipstick.

6. After reinstalling the dipstick, be

sure to seat the lever lock.
