OPERATION

WARNING

Failure to operate the vehicle properly can result in a collision, loss of control, accident or overturn, which may result in serious injury or death. Read and understand all safety warnings outlined in the safety section of this owner’s manual.

Vehicle Break-in Period

The break-in period for your new POLARIS vehicle is the first 25 hours of operation, or the time it takes to use the first two tanks full of gasoline. No single action on your part is as important as a proper break-in period. Careful treatment of a new engine and drive components will result in more efficient performance and longer life for these components. Perform the following procedures carefully.

NOTICE: Excessive heat build-up during the first three hours of operation will

damage close-fitted engine parts and drive components. Do not operate at full throttle or high speeds during the first three hours of use.

Use of any oils other than those recommended by POLARIS may cause serious engine damage. We recommend the use of POLARIS Premium 4 Synthetic Oil for your 4-cycle engine.

OPERATION

Vehicle Break-in Period

Engine and Drivetrain Break-in

1. Fill the fuel tank with gasoline. See page 28. Always exercise extreme caution whenever handling gasoline.

2. Check the oil level. See page 73. Add the recommended oil as

needed to maintain the oil level in the safe operating range.

3. Complete the New Operator Driving Procedures outlined on pages

52-53.

4. Avoid aggressive use of the brakes. See Brake System Break-in on

page 47.

5. Vary throttle positions. Do not operate at sustained idle.

6. Pull only light loads.

7. Perform regular checks on fluid levels, controls and areas outlined

on the daily pre-ride inspection checklist. See page 48.

8. During the break-in period, change both the oil and the filter at 25

hours or one month.

9. Check fluid levels of transmission and all gearcases after the first 25

hours of operation and every 100 hours thereafter.

Brake System Break-in

Apply only moderate braking force for the first 50 stops. Aggressive or overly forceful braking when the brake system is new could damage brake pads and rotors.

PVT Break-in (Clutches/Belt)

A proper break-in of the clutches and drive belt will ensure a longer life and better performance. Break in the clutches and belt by operating at slower speeds during the break-in period as recommended. Pull only light loads. Avoid aggressive acceleration and high speed operation during the break-in period.

If a belt fails, always clean any debris from the PVT intake and outlet duct and from the clutch and engine compartments when replacing the belt.

OPERATION

Pre-Ride Inspection

Failure to inspect and verify that the vehicle is in safe operating condition before operating increases the risk of an accident. Always inspect the vehicle before each use to make sure it's in safe operating condition.

3. Drive slowly and use extreme caution.

4. If the vehicle begins to overturn, or if it feels as if it may overturn, immediately turn downhill.

5. Avoid obstacles and changes in terrain that may lower or raise one side of the vehicle or cause the vehicle to slide.

6. If the vehicle begins to slide downhill, immediately turn downhill to stop the slide, or stop the vehicle and maneuver slowly and carefully until the vehicle can be driven straight downhill.

Driving Downhill

Whenever descending a hill, follow these precautions:

1. Avoid steep hills (15° maximum).

2. Never operate in TURF mode (if equipped) while operating on a hill or other irregular terrain. Always move the AWD switch to AWD before ascending or descending a hill. See page 38.

3. Slow down. Never travel down a hill at high speed.

4. Always check the terrain carefully before descending a hill.

5. Always descend a hill with the transmission in forward gear. Never descend a hill with the transmission in neutral.

6. Avoid traveling down a hill at an angle, which would cause the vehicle to lean sharply to one side. Travel straight downhill.

7. Apply the brakes lightly to aid in slowing.

OPERATION

Driving Through Water

Your vehicle can operate through water with a maximum recommended depth equal to floor level. Follow these precautions when operating through water:

1. Determine water depth and current before entering water.

2. Choose a crossing where the

water level is lowest and where both banks have gradual inclines. Never operate in water that exceeds the maximum recommended depth.

WARNING! The large tires on your vehicle may cause the vehicle to float in deep or fast-flowing water, which could result in loss of traction, loss of control, overturn or accident.

3. Wet brakes may have reduced stopping ability. After leaving water,

test the brakes. Apply them lightly several times while driving slowly. The friction will help dry out the pads.

NOTICE: Major engine damage can result if the vehicle is not thoroughly

inspected after operation in water. Perform the services outlined in the maintenance chart. See page 65. Give special attention to engine oil, transmission oil, demand drive fluid, rear gearcase oil (if equipped), and all grease fittings.

If your vehicle becomes immersed or is operated in water that exceeds the floor level, take it to your POLARIS dealer for service before starting the engine. If it's impossible to bring the vehicle to your dealer before starting the engine, perform the service outlined on page 101, and take the vehicle to your dealer at the first opportunity.

Floor Level

OPERATION

Driving Over Obstacles

Follow these precautions when operating over obstacles:

1. Always check for obstacles before operating in a new area.

2. Look ahead and learn to read the terrain. Be constantly alert for hazards such as logs, rocks and low hanging branches.

3. Travel slowly and use extra caution when operating on unfamiliar terrain. Not all obstacles are immediately visible.

4. Avoid operating over large obstacles such as rocks and fallen trees. If unavoidable, use extreme caution and operate slowly.

5. Always have a passenger dismount and move away from the vehicle before operating over an obstacle that could cause an overturn.

OPERATION

Driving in Reverse

Follow these precautions when operating in reverse:

1. Always check for obstacles or people behind the vehicle.

2. Apply the throttle lightly. Never open the throttle suddenly.

3. Back slowly.

4. Apply the brakes lightly for stopping.

5. Avoid making sharp turns.

OPERATION

Parking on an Incline

A rolling vehicle can result in serious injury. Avoid parking on an incline. If parking on an incline is unavoidable, follow these precautions:

1. Place the transmission in PARK.

2. Turn the engine off.

3. Block the rear wheels on the downhill side, or park the vehicle in a sidehill position instead.

OPERATION

WARNING

Hauling Cargo

Overloading the vehicle or carrying or towing cargo improperly can alter vehicle handling and may cause loss of control or brake instability. Always follow these precautions when hauling cargo:

Never exceed the stated load capacity for this vehicle. REDUCE SPEED AND ALLOW GREATER DISTANCES FOR BRAKING

WHEN HAULING CARGO. NEVER EXCEED THE MAXIMUM WEIGHT CAPACITY of the vehicle. When

determining the weight you are adding to the vehicle, include the weight of the operator, passenger, accessories, loads in the rack or box and the load on the trailer tongue. The combined weight of these items must not exceed the maximum weight capacity.

Always load the cargo box with the load as far forward and as low as possible. When operating over rough or hilly terrain, reduce speed and cargo to maintain

stable driving conditions. Always operate the vehicle with extreme care when hauling or towing loads.

Slow down and drive in the lowest gear available. SECURE ALL LOADS BEFORE OPERATING. Unsecured loads can create

unstable operating conditions, which could result in loss of control of the vehicle. OPERATE ONLY WITH STABLE AND SAFELY ARRANGED LOADS. When

handling off-centered loads that cannot be centered, securely fasten the load and operate with extra caution. Always attach the tow load to the hitch point designated for your vehicle.

HEAVY LOADS CAN CAUSE BRAKING AND CONTROL PROBLEMS. Use extreme caution when applying brakes with a loaded vehicle. Avoid terrain or situations that may require backing downhill.

USE EXTREME CAUTION when operating with loads that extend over the rack sides. Stability and maneuverability may be adversely affected, causing the vehicle to overturn.

DO NOT TRAVEL FASTER THAN THE RECOMMENDED SPEEDS. Vehicle should never exceed 10 MPH (16 km/h) while towing a load on a level grass surface. Vehicle speed should never exceed 5 MPH (8 km/h) when towing loads in rough terrain, while cornering, or while ascending or descending a hill.

OPERATION

WARNING

Hauling Cargo

Your POLARIS vehicle has been designed to carry or tow specific capacities. Reduce speed and allow a greater distance for braking when carrying cargo.

Loads should be centered and carried as low as possible in the box. For stability on rough or hilly terrain, reduce both speed and cargo. Exercise caution if the cargo load extends over the side of the box.

Always read and understand the load distribution warnings listed on warning labels and in this manual. Never exceed the maximum capacities specified for your vehicle. See page 114.

Belt Life

To extend belt life, use low gear when hauling or towing heavy cargo.

Towing Loads

Towing improperly can alter vehicle handling and may cause loss of control or brake instability.

Always follow these precautions when towing:

1. Never load more than 150 lbs. (68.1 kg) tongue weight on the tow-

ing bracket.

2. Do not operate the vehicle faster than 10 MPH (16 km/h) when towing. Towing a trailer increases braking distance.

3. Do not tow more than the recommended weight for the vehicle.

4. Attach a trailer to the trailer hitch bracket only. Do not attach a trailer to any other location, which could result in loss of control of the vehicle.

5. The total load (operator, passenger, accessories, cargo and weight on hitch) must not exceed the maximum weight capacity of the vehicle.

MAINTENANCE

Periodic Maintenance Chart

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.

Record maintenance and service in the Maintenance Log beginning on page 128.

Service and adjustments are important for proper vehicle operation. 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 ten (10) miles per hour. Vehicles subjected to severe use must be inspected and serviced more frequently.

Severe Use Definition

• Frequent immersion in mud, water or sand

• Frequent or prolonged operation in dusty environments

• 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 or see your POLARIS dealer.

MAINTENANCE

Cooling System

Operation

The engine coolant level is controlled or maintained by the recovery system. The recovery system components are the overflow 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 overflow 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.

Tip: Some coolant level drop on new vehicles is normal as the system is purging

itself of trapped air. Observe coolant levels and maintain as recommended by adding coolant to the overflow bottle.

Adding or Changing Coolant

To ensure that the coolant maintains its ability to protect the engine, we recommend that the system be completely drained every two years and a fresh mixture of antifreeze and water added. POLARIS recommends the use of POLARIS Premium 60/40 anti-freeze/coolant or a 50/50 mixture of high quality aluminum compatible anti-freeze/coolant and distilled water. POLARIS Premium 60/40 is already premixed and ready to use. Do not dilute with water. See page 116 for the part numbers of POLARIS products.

Tip: Always follow the manufacturer's mixing recommendations for the freeze

protection required in your area.

Any time the cooling system has been drained for maintenance or repair, replace the coolant. If the recovery bottle has run dry, the level in the radiator should be inspected. Add coolant as needed.

MAINTENANCE

Cooling System

Radiator and Cooling Fan

Always check and clean the screen and radiator fins at the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 65. Do not obstruct or deflect air flow through the radiator by installing unauthorized accessories in front of the radiator or behind the cooling fan. Interference with the radiator air flow can lead to overheating and consequent engine damage.

NOTICE: Washing the vehicle with a high-pressure hose could damage the

Radiator Coolant Level

This procedure is required only if the cooling system has been drained for maintenance and/or repair. But if the overflow bottle has run dry, the level in the radiator should also be inspected.

CAUTION! Escaping steam can cause burns. Never remove the pressure cap while the engine is warm or hot. Always allow the engine to cool before removing the pressure cap.

1. Remove the hood. See page 27.

2. Slowly remove the radiator cap.

3. View the coolant level through the opening.

4. Use a funnel and slowly add coolant as needed.

Tip: Use of a non-standard pressure cap will not allow the recovery system to

WARNING

POLARIS Variable Transmission (PVT) System

Failure to comply with the instructions in this warning can result in severe injury or death.

Do not modify any component of the PVT system. Doing so may reduce its strength so that a failure may occur at a high speed. The PVT system has been precision balanced. Any modification will cause the system to be out of balance, creating vibration and additional loads on components.

The PVT system rotates at high speeds, creating large amounts of force on clutch components. Extensive engineering and testing has been conducted to ensure the safety of this product. However, as the owner, you have the following responsibilities to make sure this system remains safe:

• Always follow all recommended maintenance procedures. Always look for and remove debris inside and around the clutch and vent system when replacing the belt.

• See your POLARIS dealer as outlined in the owner's manual.

• This PVT system is intended for use on POLARIS products only. Do not install it in any other product.

• Always make sure the PVT housing is securely in place during operation.

Belt slip is responsible for creating excessive heat that destroys belts, wears clutch components and causes outer clutch covers to fail. Switch to low range while operating at slower speeds to extend the life of the PVT components (belt, cover, etc.).

MAINTENANCE

POLARIS Variable Transmission (PVT) System

Belt Replacement/Debris Removal

If a belt fails, always clean any debris from the PVT intake and outlet duct and from the clutch and engine compartments when replacing the belt.

WARNING! Failure to remove ALL debris when replacing the belt could result in vehicle damage and severe injury or death.

1. Remove the clutch cover screws and open the clutch cover. Remove all debris wrapped in and around the PVT system.

2. Remove all debris from the entire clutch air duct passage.

3. Check for signs of damage to seals on the transmission and engine.

See your POLARIS dealer promptly for service if any seals appear to be damaged.

WARNING

Spark Arrester

Failure to heed the following warnings while servicing the spark arrester could result in serious injury or death.

Do not perform clean-out immediately after the engine has been run, as the exhaust system becomes very hot. Serious burns could result from contact with the exhaust components. Allow components to cool sufficiently before proceeding.

Wear eye protection and gloves. Never run the engine in an enclosed area. Exhaust contains poisonous carbon

monoxide gas that can cause loss of consciousness or death in a very short time.

Periodically clean the spark arrester to remove accumulated carbon.

1. Remove the retaining nut. Remove the arrester from the end of the muffler.

2. Use a non-synthetic brush to clean the arrester screen. A synthetic brush may melt if components are warm. If necessary, blow debris from the screen with compressed air.

3. Inspect the screen for wear and damage. Replace a worn or dam-

aged screen.

4. Reinstall the arrester. Torque the nut to 7-9 ft. lbs. (10-12 Nm).

WARNING

Throttle System

Failure to check or maintain proper operation of the throttle system can result in an accident and lead to serious injury or death if the throttle pedal sticks during operation.

Never start or operate this vehicle if it has a sticking or improperly operating throttle pedal.

Immediately contact your POLARIS dealer for service if throttle problems arise. Always check the pedal for free movement and return before starting the engine

and occasionally during operation.

Throttle Freeplay

If the throttle pedal has excessive play due to cable stretch or misadjustment, it will cause a delay in throttle response, especially at low engine speed. The throttle may also not open fully. If the throttle pedal has no freeplay, the throttle may be hard to control, and the idle speed may be erratic.

Check the throttle pedal freeplay at the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page

65. Adjust the freeplay if necessary.

Throttle Freeplay Inspection

1. Place the transmission in PARK.

2. Apply the brakes. Start the engine. Allow it to warm up thoroughly.

3. Measure the distance the throttle pedal moves before the engine begins to pick up speed. Freeplay should be 1/16 to 1/8 inches (1.53 mm).

Throttle Body/Idle RPM

Idle RPM is preset by the manufacturer. If the engine idle speed is not satisfactory, please see your POLARIS dealer for adjustment.

Throttle Freeplay Adjustment

1. Remove both seats. Remove the engine access panel. See page 28.

2. Locate the throttle cable

adjuster at the throttle body.

3. Slide the cable adjuster boot

off the cable adjuster.

4. Using a 10 mm open-end

wrench, loosen the adjustment jam nut.

5. Using an 8 mm open-end

wrench, move the cable adjuster until 1/16" to 1/8" (1.5-3 mm) of freeplay is achieved at the throttle pedal. See page 91. While adjusting, lightly flip the throttle pedal up and down.

6. Tighten the jam nut.

7. Apply a small amount of grease to the inside of the boot and slide it

over the cable adjuster to its original position.

MAINTENANCE

Brakes

The front and rear brakes are hydraulic disc type brakes activated by the brake pedal. See page 34.

Always check brake pedal travel and the brake fluid reservoir level before each use of the vehicle. When applied, the brake pedal should feel firm. Any sponginess would indicate a possible fluid leak or low brake fluid level, which must be corrected before riding. See page 94 for brake fluid information.

If you discover any irregularities in brake system operation, including excessive pedal travel, contact your POLARIS 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.

Brake Fluid

Inspect the level of the brake fluid before each operation. If the fluid level is low add DOT 4 brake fluid only. See page 116 for the part numbers of POLARIS products.

WARNING! After opening a bottle of brake fluid, always discard any unused portion. Never store or use a partial bottle. Brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it rapidly absorbs moisture from the air. The moisture causes the boiling temperature of the brake fluid to drop, which can lead to early brake fade and the possibility of accident or severe injury.

Change the brake fluid every two years and any time the fluid becomes contaminated, the fluid level is below the minimum, or if the type and brand of the fluid in the reservoir are unknown. Access the brake fluid reservoir through the left front wheel well.

1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.

2. Place the transmission in

PAR K.

3. View the brake fluid level in

the reservoir. The level should be between the maximum and minimum level lines.

4. If the fluid level is lower

than the lower level line, add brake fluid to the upper line.

5. Apply the brake forcefully for a few seconds and check for fluid

leakage around the fittings.

MAINTENANCE

Brakes

Brake Inspection

1. Check the brake system for fluid leaks.

2. Check the brake pedal for

excessive travel or a spongy feel.

3. Check the friction pads for

wear, damage and looseness.

4. Check brake discs for signs

of cracks, excessive corrosion, warping or other damage. Clean any grease using an approved brake cleaner or alcohol.

NOTICE: Do not apply WD-40 or any petroleum product to brake discs.

5. Inspect the brake disc spline and pad wear surface for excessive

wear. Change pads when worn to 3/64" (1 mm).

Steering Wheel Inspection

Check the steering wheel for specified freeplay and smooth operation at the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 65.

1. Position the vehicle on level ground.

2. Lightly turn the steering wheel left and right.

3. There should be 0.8"-1.0" (20-25 mm) of freeplay.

4. If there is excessive freeplay or strange noises, or the steering feels

rough or “catchy,” have the steering system inspected by an authorized POLARIS dealer.

MAINTENANCE

Suspension Settings

The front and rear suspensions are preload adjustable, with five settings on each axle.

The suspensions are set on the lowest (softest) setting at the factory. This setting is appropriate for nearly all riding conditions. Since the vehicle is equipped with full skid plates, suspension adjustment is not necessary.

If desired, the suspension may be adjusted to maintain vehicle clearance height when carrying loads. Please see your POLARIS dealer for the tool required to make suspension adjustments. Elevate the vehicle slightly for easier adjustment.

Always heed the following rules if you make adjustments to this suspension.

• Always return the suspension to the lowest (softest) setting after the load is removed from the vehicle. The increased suspension height will negatively impact vehicle stability when operating without a load.

• Always apply the same adjustment setting to all four wheels.

• Never operate the vehicle on the highest (stiffest) or second highest preload settings without a total combined payload in the vehicle of 450 lbs. (204 kg) or more. Payload includes the driver, passenger, POLARIS-approved accessories and cargo. Never exceed the stated load capacity for this vehicle. See page 114.
