Lubrication

Gearcase Oil Level

Check the gearcase oil level at the
intervals outlined in the maintenance
charts beginning on page 64. Change
the gearcase oil after the first 500 miles
(800 km), then every 1000 miles (1600
km) or seasonally.

To check the oil level, place the
snowmobile on a level surface. The oil
level should be between the “safe”
marks on the dipstick (1). Do not
overfill
.

POLARIS recommends the use of
POLARIS Synthetic Chaincase Lube.
See page 106 for the part numbers of
POLARIS products.

Clean the magnetic plug (2) every 500
miles (800 km) and whenever checking
or changing lubricant.

NOTICE: Mixing brands or using non-recommended lubricants could result in

excessive wear to chain, sprockets and bearings. Always use
POLARIS-recommended products for your vehicle.
