Polaris measures chain length in number of pitches. CI: Cubic inches. Clutch Buttons: Plastic bushings which aid rotation of the movable sheave in the drive and driven clutch. Clutch Offset: Drive and driven clutches are offset so that drive belt will stay nearly straight as it moves along the clutch face. Clutch Weights: Three levers in the drive clutch which relative to their weight, profile and engine RPM cause the drive clutch to close and
grip the drive belt. Crankshaft Run-Out: Run-out or "bend" of crankshaft measured with a dial indicator while crankshaft is supported between centers on V blocks or resting in crankcase. Measure at various points especially at PTO.
CVT: Centrifugal Variable Transmission (Drive Clutch System) DCV: Direct current voltage.
Dial Bore Gauge: A cylinder measuring instrument which uses a dial indicator . Good for showing t aper and out-of-round in the cylinder bore. EBS: Engine Braking System. Uses engine compression to slow the ATV without the use of hydraulic brakes.
Electrical Open: Open circuit. An electrical circuit which isn't complete. Electrical Short: Short circuit. An electrical circuit which is completed before the current reaches the intended load. (i .e. a bare wire touchi ng
the chassis).
End Seals: Rubber seals at each end of the crankshaft. Engagement RPM: Engine RPM at which the drive clutch engages to make contact with the drive belt. ft.: Foot/feet. Foot Pound: Ft. lb. A force of one pound at the end of a lever one foot in length, applied in a rotational direction. g: Gram. Unit of weight in the metric system. gal.: Gallon. ID: Inside diameter. in.: Inch/inches.

MAINTENANCE
Overview
Careful periodic maintenance will help keep your vehicle in the safest, most reliable condition. Inspection, adjustment and lubrication of important components are explained in the periodic maintenance chart.
Inspect, clean, lubricate, adjust and replace parts as necessary . When inspection reveals the need for replacement parts, use genuine Polaris parts available from your Polaris dealer.
NOTE: Service and adjustments are critical. If you're not familiar with safe service and adjustment procedures, have a qualified dealer perform these operations.
Maintenance intervals in the following chart are based upon average riding conditions and an average vehicle speed of approximately 10 miles per hour. Vehicles subjected to severe use must be inspected and serviced more frequently.
• Frequent immersion in mud, water or sand
• Racing or race-style high RPM use
• Prolonged low speed, heavy load operation
• Extended idle
• Short trip cold weather operation
Pay special attention to the oil level. A rise in oil level during cold weather can indicate contaminants collecting in the oil sump or crankcase. Change oil immediately if the oil level begins to rise. Monitor the oil level, and if it continues to rise, discontinue use and determine the cause.
Maintenance Chart Key
The following symbols denote potential items to be aware of during maintenance:
= CAUTION: Due to the nature of these adjustments, it is recommended this service be performed by an authorized
Polaris dealer.
= SEVERE USE ITEM --If vehicle is subjected to severe use, decrease interval by 50% (Sever e Use is defined as frequent
vehicle immersion in mud, water or sand, racing or race-style high rpm use, prolonged low speed - heavy load operation or extended idle. More preventative maintenance is required under these conditions. Fluid changes, cable, chain and chassis lubrication are required more frequently. For engine oil, short trip cold weather riding also constitutes severe use. Pay special attention to oil level. A rising oil level in cold weather can indicate contaminants collecting in the oil sump or crankcase. Change oil immediately and monitor level. If oil level begins to rise, discontinue use and determine cause.)

ADC Differential Hydraulic Circuit Fluid Change
1. Make sure vehicle is parked on flat ground and allowed to sit at least 30 minutes prior to bleeding hydraulic circuit.
2. Thoroughly clean area around and on remote reservoir and bleeder valves.
3. Remove reservoir cap and diaphragm assembly.
4. Make sure hydraulic oil inside reservoir is free of debris. If any debris is found, use clean rag or suction device to remove from the reservoir.
NOTE: Debris in reservoir may block porting and produce inadequate bleeding of the system. Decreased performance may be encountered with inadequate bleed of the hydraulic circuit.
5. Begin the bleeding process by filli ng reservoir to ‘MAX’ line with clean Polaris ADC hydraulic fluid. (AW ISO 10 hydraulic fluid equivalent).
6. Locate bleeder valves found on either side of differential and remove the protective caps.
7. Turn bleeder valves counter-clockwise to loosen. Loosen bleeder screw slowly, allowing oil and any trapped air to flow out of fitting.
IMPORTANT: Do not allow hydraulic fluid in reservoir to drain below minimum fill line. Close bleeder valve before oil level falls below minimum fill line. Refilling empty reservoir will result in air pockets becoming trapped.

MAINTENANCE
Fuel System
WARNING
* Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive
under certain conditions. * EFI components are under high pressure. Verify system pressure has been relieved before disassembly. * Never drain the fuel system when the engine is hot. S e vere burn s may resul t * Do not overfill the tank. The tank is at full capacity when the fuel reaches the bottom of the filler neck. Leave room for expansion of fuel. * Never start the engine or let it run in an enclosed area. Gasoline powered engine exhaust fumes are poisonous and can cause loss of consciousness and death in a short time. * Do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks in or near the area where refueling is performed or where gasoline is stored. * If you get gasoline in your eyes or if you should swallow gasoline, seek medical attention immediately. * If you spill gasoline on your skin or clothing, immediately wash with soap and water and change clothing. * Always stop the engine and refuel outdoors or in a well ventilated area.Keep away from open flames and electrical components when removing fuel filter.
The fuel filter (1) should be replaced in accordance with the Periodic Maintenance Chart. To replace the filter:
EFI Example
(1)
4. Remove fuel lines from filter, use shop towels to catch any leaking fuel.
5. Install new filter in line with arrow pointed in direction of fuel flow.
6. Install line locks on fuel lines and verify locks are seated.
7. Start engine and inspect for leaks.
Vent Lines
Check fuel tank, oil tank, battery and transmission vent lines for signs of wear, deterioration, damage or leakage. Replace Be sure vent lines are routed properly and secured with cable ties.
CAUTION
Verify vent lines are not kinked or damaged
Compression Test
NOTE: This engine does NOT have decompression components. Compression readings will vary in proportion to cranking speed during the test. Average compression (measured) is about 150-200 psi during a compression test.
A smooth idle generally indicates good compression. Low engine compression is rarely a factor in running condition problems above idle speed. Abnormally high compression can be caused by carbon deposits in the combustion chamber or worn, damaged exhaust cam lobes. Inspect camshaft and combustion chamber if compression is abnormally high.
A cylinder leakdown test is the best indication of engine condition. Follow manufacturer's instructions to perform a cylinder leakage test. (Never use high pressure leakage testers, as crankshaft seals may dislodge and leak).
Cylinder Compression
Standard: 150-200 PSI
Cylinder Leakdown
Service Limit 15%
1. Disconnect negative battery cable.
2. Relieve the pressure on the fuel rail. (See Ch. 4)
3. Remove line locks at both ends of the filter.

2.18
The engine coolant level is controlled or maintained by the recovery system. The recovery system components are the recovery bottle, radiator filler neck, radiator pressure cap and connecting hose.
As coolant operating temperature increases, the expanding (heated) excess coolant is forced out of the radiator past the pressure cap and into the recovery bottle. As engine coolant temperature decreases the contracting (cooled) coolant is drawn back up from the tank past the pressure cap and into the radiator.
• Some coolant level drop on new machines is normal as
the system is purging itself of trapped air. Observe coolant levels often during the break-in period.
• Overheating of engine could occur if air is not fully
purged from system.
• Polaris Premium 60/40 anti-freeze is premixed and
ready to use. Do not dilute with water.
MAINTENANCE
Coolant Strength / Type
Test the strength of the coolant using an antifreeze hydrometer.
Antifreeze Hydrometer
• A 50/50 or 60/40 mixture of antifreeze and distilled water will provide the optimum cooling, corrosion protection, and antifreeze protection.
• Do not use tap water, straight antifreeze, or straight water in the system. Tap water contains minerals and impurities which build up in the system.
• Straight water or antifreeze may cause the system to freeze, corrode, or overheat.

Steering Inspection
WARNING
Due to the critical nature of the procedures outlined
in this chapter, Polaris recommends steering
component repair and adjustment be performed by
an authorized Polaris MSD-certified technician
when replacing worn or damaged steering par ts.
Use only genuine Polaris replacement parts.
Tie Rod / Steering
• To check for play in the tie rod end, grasp the steering tie rod, pull in all directions feeling for movement.
• Repeat inspection for inner tie rod end on steering post.
• Replace any worn steering components. Steering should move freely through entire range of travel without binding.
• Elevate front end of machine so front wheels are off the ground. Check for any looseness in front hub / wheel assembly by grasping the tire firmly at top and bottom first, and then at front and rear. Try to move the wheel and hub by pushing inward and pulling outward.
• If abnormal movement is detected, inspect the hub and wheel assembly to determine the cause ( possible loose wheel nuts or loose front hub components).
The steering components should be checked periodically for loose fasteners, worn tie rod ends, and damage. Also check to make sure all cotter pins are in place. If cotter pins are removed, they must not be re-used. Always use new cotter pins.
Replace any worn or damaged steering components. Steering should move freely through entire range of travel without binding. Check routing of all cables, hoses, and wiring t o be sure the steering mechanism is not restricted or limited.
NOTE: Whenever steering components are replaced, check front end alignment. Use only genuine Polaris parts.
One of two methods can be used to measure toe alignment. The string method and the chalk method. If adjustment is required, refer to following pages for procedure.
2.24
Check for loose wheel or hub.
• Refer to the Body/Steering Chapter 5 or Final Drive Chapter 7 for service procedures.
Camber/Caster
Camber and caster are non-adjustable.
MAINTENANCE
Wheel Alignment
1. Place machine on a smooth level surface.
2. Set handlebars in a straight ahead position and secure handlebars in this position.
3. Place a chalk mark on the center line of the front tires approximately 10, (25.4 cm) from the floor or as close to the hub/axle center line as possible.
NOTE: It is important that the height of both marks be equally positioned in order to get an accurate measurement.
4. Measure the distance between the marks and record the measurement. Call this measurement “A”.
5. Rotate the tires 180 backward. Position chalk marks facing rearward, even with the hub/axle centerline.
6. Again measure the distance between the marks and record. Call this measurement “B”. Subtract measurement “B” from measurement “A”. The difference between measurements “A” and “B” is the vehicle toe alignment. The recommended vehicle toe tolerance is 1/8, to 1/4, (.3 to .6 cm) toe out. This means the measurement at the front of the tire (A) is 1/8, to 1/4, (.3 to .6 cm) wider than the measurement at the rear (B).
by moving vehicle forward or
Toe Alignment
If toe alignment is incorrect, measure the distance between vehicle center and each wheel. This will tell you which tie rod needs adjusting.
NOTE: Be sure handlebars are straight ahead before determining which tie rod(s) need adjustment.
CAUTION
During tie rod adjustment, it is very important that
the following precautions be taken when tightening
tie rod end jam nuts. If the rod end is positioned
incorrectly it will not pivot, and may break.
To Adjust Toe Alignment:
• Hold tie rod end to keep it from rotating.
• Loosen jam nuts at both end of the tie rod.
• Shorten or lengthen the tie rod until alignment is as required to achieve the proper toe setting as specified
IMPORTANT: When tightening the tie rod end jam nuts, the rod ends must be held parallel to prevent rod end damage and premature wear. Damage may not be immediately apparent if done incorrectly. See illustration above.

Cleaning And Storage Of ATV
Cleaning the ATV
Keeping your AT V clean will not on ly improve its appearan ce but it can also extend the life of various components. W ith a few precautions, your A TV can be cleaned much like a n automobile.
Washing the ATV
The best and safest way to clean your A TV is with a garden hose and a pail of mild soap and water. Use a professional type washing mitten, cleaning the upper body first and the lower parts last. Rinse with water frequently and dry with a chamois to prevent water spots.
NOTE: If warning and safety labels are damaged, contact your a Polaris dealer for free replacement.
Polaris does not recommend the use of a high pressure type car wash system for washing the ATV . If a high pressure system is used, exercise extreme care to avoid water damage to the wheel bearings, transmission seals, body panels, brakes and warning labels.
NOTE: Grease all zerk fittings immediately after washing, and allow the vehicle to run for a while to evaporate any water that may have entered the engine or exhaust system.
Waxing the ATV
ATVs can be waxed with any non-ab rasive automotive paste wax. A void the use of harsh cleaners since they can scratch the body finish. Spray-on furniture polish is an acceptable alternative. Do not use old cloths or pads which may contain dirt particles that can scratch the finish. Polaris offers a detailing kit for ATVs.
Clean the Exterior
Make necessary repairs and then clean the ATV thoroughly with mild soap and warm water to remove all dirt and grime. Do n't use harsh detergents or high pressur e washers. Some detergen ts deteriorate rubber parts. Use dish soap type cleaners only. High pressure washers may force water past seals.
Stabilize the Fuel
Fill the fuel tank. Add Polaris Carbon Clean Fuel Treatment or Polaris Fuel Stabilizer . Follow the instructions on the container for the recommended amount. (Carbon clean will also reduce the possibility of bacterial growth in the fuel system.) Allow 15­20 minutes of operation for the stabilizer to disperse through the fuel in the tank and the fuel system.
Oil and Filter
Warm the engine and change the oil and filter. Follow the procedure in this chapter for proper oil change.
Air Filter / Air Box
Inspect and clean or replace the pre-cleaner and air filter. Clean the air box and drain the sediment tube.
Breather Filter
Inspect and clean or replace the breather filter.
Fluid Levels
Inspect the following fluid levels and change if necessary: front gearcase; transmission; brake fluid (change every two years or as required if fluid looks dark or contaminated).
Drain and Recoil Housing (If Applicable)
Remove the recoil housing drain plug and drain any moisture.

CAUTION
Certain products, including insect repellents and
chemicals, will damage plastic surfaces.
Use caution when using these
products near plastic surfaces.
Storage Tips
See the beginning of the chapter for Pure Polaris storage products.
CAUTION
Starting the engine during the storage period
will disturb the protective film created
by fogging. Damage could occur.
Never start the engine during the storage period
Fog the Engine
Use Polaris Fogging Oil, following the instructions as directed. If you choose not to use Polaris Fogging Oil, perform the
following procedure.
1. Treat the fuel system with Polaris Carbon Clean. If Polaris fuel system additive is not used, the fuel tank and fuel lines should be completely drained of gasoli n e .
2. To access the plug hole, use a section of clear 1/4" hose and a small plastic squeeze bottle filled with the pre-measured amount of oil.
3. Remove the spark plug(s). Rotate the pist on to BDC and pour approximately two ounces of Polaris oil into the cylinder.
NOTE: Do this carefully! If you miss the plug hole, oil will drain from the spark plug cavity into the hole at the front of the cylinder head and appear to be an oil leak.
4. Apply dielectric grease to the inside of the spark plug cap and install the cap onto the plug.
5. Turn the engine over several ti mes to ensure coverage of piston rings, cylinder walls and crankshaft bearings.
2.33
MAINTENANCE
6. After storage procedures are complete, do not start the engine until unit is ready to be removed from storage. Starting the engine will remove the protective coating from the engine components.
Lubrication
Inspect all cables and lubricate with Polaris Cable Lubricant. Follow lubrication guidelines in the maintenance section of the service or owner's manual to completely grease and lubricate the entire vehicle with Polaris Premium All Season Grease.
Battery Storage
Remove the battery from the vehicle and ensure that it's fully charged before placing it in storage. See Chapter 10 for instructions.
Engine Anti-Freeze
Test engine coolant strength and change if necessary. Coolant should be replaced every two years.
Storage Ar ea / Covers
Set the tire pressure and safely support the A TV with the tires 1­2" off the ground. Be sure the storage area is well ventilated, and cover the machine with a genuine Polaris ATV cover.
NOTE: Do not use plastic or coated materials. They do not allow enough ventilation to prevent condensation, and may promote corrosion and oxidation.
Transporting the ATV
Follow these procedures when transporting the vehicle:
1. Turn off the engine and remove th e key to prevent loss during transporting.
2. Always place the transmission in park and lock the parking brake.
3. Be sure the fuel cap, oil cap and seat are installed correctly.
4. Always tie the frame of the A TV to the transporting unit securely using suitable straps or rope.

Engine Installation Notes
After the engine is installed in the frame, review this checklist and perform all steps that apply:
General Items
1. Install previously removed components using new gaskets, seals, and fasteners where applicable.
2. Perform regular checks on fluid levels, controls, and all important areas on the vehicle as outlined in the daily pre­ride inspection checklist (refer to Chapter 2 or the Owner's Manual).
PVT System
1. Adjust center distance of drive and driven clutch. (Chapter
6)
2. Adjust clutch offset, alignment, and belt deflection. (Chapter 6)
3. Clean clutch sheaves thoroughly and inspect inlet and outlet ducts for proper routing and sealing. (Chapter 6)
Transmission
1. Inspect transmission operation and adjust linkage if necessary. Refer to Chapter 2 and Chapter 8.
Exhaust
1. Replace exhaust gaskets. Seal connections with high temp silicone sealant.
2. Check to be sure all springs are in good condi tion.
Bleed Cooling System
NOTE: This cooling system contains vent lines to help purge trapped air during filling. Bleeding generally should not be necessary.
1. Remove radiator cap and slowly add coolant to the bottom of filler neck.
2. Fill coolant reservoir tank to full mark.
3. Install radiator cap and gently squeeze coolant hoses to force any trapped air out of system.
4. Again, remove radiator cap and slow ly add coolant to the bottom of fill neck if needed.
5. Start engine and observe coolant level in the radiator. Allow air to purge and top off as necessary. Reinstall radiator cap and bring engine to operating temperature. After engine is cool, check level in reservoir tank and add coolant if necessary.
NOTE: Should the reservoir tank become empty, it will be necessary to refill at the radiator and repeat the bleeding procedure.
Engine Break-In Period
The break-in period for a Polaris ATV engine is defined as the first ten hours of operation, or the time it takes to use two full tanks of gasoline. No single action on your part is as important as a proper break-in period. Careful treatment of a new engine will result in more efficient performance and longer life for the engine. Perform the following procedures carefully.
CAUTION
Use only Polaris Premium 0-40W All Season

extended periods during the first three hours of use.
Excessive heat can build up and cause damage to
close fitted engine parts.
1. Fill fuel tank with unleaded or leaded fuel which has a minimum pump octane number of 87= (R+ M)/2.
2. Check oil reservoir level i ndicated on dip stick. Add o il if necessary (Refer to Chapter 2, “Engine Oil Level” ).
3. Drive slowly at first to gradually bring engine up to operating temperature.
4. Vary throttle positions. Do not operate at sustained idle or sustained high speed.
5. Perform regular checks on fluid levels, controls and all important bolt torques. Pull only light loads duri ng initial break in.
6. Pull only light loads during initial break-in.
7. Change break in oil and filter at 20 hours or 200 miles.
Cylinder Hone Selection And Honing Procedure
CAUTION
A hone which will straighten as well as remove
material from the cylinder is very important. Using a
common spring loaded glaze breaker for honing is
not advised for nicasil cylinders.
Polaris recommends using a rigid hone or arbo r
honing machine. Cylinders may be wet or dry
honed depending upon the hone manufacturer's
recommendations.
Wet honing removes more material faster and
leaves a more distinct pattern in the bore.
Cylinders may be wet or dry honed depending upon the hone manufacturer’s recommendations. Wet honing removes more material faster and leaves a more distinct pattern in the bore.
3.18
Honing To Deglaze
A finished cylinder should have a cross-hatch pattern to ensure piston ring seating and to aid in the retention of the fuel/oil mixture during initial break in. Hone cylinder according to hone manufacturer's instructions, or these guidelines:
• Honing should be done with a diamond hone. Cylinder could be damaged if the hone is not hard enough to scratch the nicasil lining.
• Use a motor speed of approximately 300-500 RPM, run the hone in and out of the cylinder rapidly until cutting tension decreases. Remember to keep the hone drive shaft centered (or cylinder centered on arbor) and to bring the stones approximately 1/2, (1.3 cm) above and below the bore at the end of each stroke.
• Release the hone at regular intervals and inspect the bore to determine if it has been sufficiently de-glazed, and to check for correct cross-hatch. NOTE: Do not
allow cylinder to heat up during honing.
• After honing has been completed, inspect cylinder for thinning or peeling.
If cylinder wear or damage is excessive, it will be necessary to replace the cylinder. The cylinders are lined with a nicasil coating and are not repairable. Hone only enough to de-glaze the outer layer of the cylinder bore.
ENGINE
3
Example of Cross Hatch Pattern
IMPORTANT: Clean the cylinder after honing
If cylinder wear or damage is excessive, it will be necessary to replace the cylinder. The cylinders are lined with a nicasil coating and are not repairable. Hone only enough to de-glaze the outer layer of the cylinder bore.
Cleaning the Cylinder After Honing
It is very important that the cylinder be thoroughly cleaned after honing to remove all grit material. Wash the cylinder in a solvent, then in hot, soapy water. Pay close attention to areas where the cylinder sleeve meets the aluminum casting (transfer port area). Use electrical contact cleaner if necessary to clean these areas. Rinse thoroughly, dry with compressed air, and oil the bore immediately with Polaris Lubricant.

ENGINE
Oil Flow Chart
This chart describes the flow of oil through the 700/800 engine. Beginning in the crankcase sump, the oil is drawn through an oil galley to the feed side of the oil pump. The oil is then pumped through th e oil filter. If the oil filter is obstructed, a bypass valve contained in the filter allows oil to bypass the filter element. At this point, the oil is supplied to the main oil galley through a crankcase passage. Oil is then diverted three ways from the main oil galley, with the first path entering the camshaft bores, onto the rear balance shaft journal and then draining back into the crankcase sump. The second oil path from the main oil galley feeds the lifter bores and then drains back to the crankcase sump. The third oil path flows through a crankcase galley to the MAG side crankshaft journal and
also to the front balance shaft journal and onto the crankcase sump. The oil pressure switch is fed off the main oil galley.

Combustion Chamber
1. Clean all accumulated carbon deposits from combustion chamber and valve seat area with carbon cleaner and a soft plastic scraper.
IMPORTANT: Do not use a wire brush, metal scraper, or abrasive cleaners to clean the bottom of the cylinder head. Extensive damage to the cylinder h ead may result. Wear safety glasses during cleaning.
Combustion Area
NOTE: Valve seat width and point of contact on the valve face is very important for proper sealing. The valve must contact the valve seat over the entire circumference of the seat, and the seat must be the proper width all the way around. If the seat is uneven, compression leakage will result. If the seat is too wide, seat pressure is reduced, causing carbon accumulation and possible compression loss. If the seat is too narrow, heat transfer from valve to seat is reduced. The valve may overheat and warp, resulting in burnt valves.
Valve Seat Reconditioning
NOTE: Polaris recommends that the work be done by a local machine shop that specializes in this area.
NOTE: The cylinder head valve guides cannot be replaced.
WARNING
Wear eye protection or a face shield during cylinder
head disassembly and reassembly.
Valve Seat Inspection
Inspect valve seat in cylinder head for pitting, burnt spots, roughness, and uneven surface. If any of the above conditions exist, the valve seat must be reconditioned. If the valve seat is
cracked the cylinder head must be replaced.
Follow the manufacturers instructions provided with the valve seat cutters in the Cylinder Head Reconditioning Kit (PN
2200634). Abrasive stone seat reconditioning equipment can
also be used. Keep all valves in order with their respective seat.
1. Install pilot into valve guide.
2. Apply cutting oil to valve seat and cutter.
3. Place 46
cutter on the pilot and make a light cut.
