PERIODIC MAINTENANCE CHART

Periodic Maintenance Overview
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 Pure 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.
Severe Use Definition
• 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
2
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 dealer.
Break-In Period
The break-in period consists of the first 25 hours of operation. Careful treatment of a new engine and drive components will result in more efficient performance and longer life for these components.
• Drive vehicle slowly at first while varying the throttle position. Do not operate at sustained idle.
• Perform regular checks on fluid levels and other areas outlined on the daily pre-ride inspection checklist.
• Change both the engine oil and filter after 25 hours or one month.
• See “Owner’s Manual” for additional break-in information.
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: See information provided above.
E = Emission Control System Service (California).
NOTE: Inspection may reveal the need for replacement parts. Always use genuine Polaris parts.
WARNING
Improperly performing the procedures marked ■ could result in component failure and lead to serious injury or death.
Have an authorized Polaris dealer perform these services.

COOLING SYSTEM

Cooling System Overview
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.
NOTE: Some coolant level drop on new machines is normal as the system is purging itself of trapped air. Observe coolant levels often during break-in period.
Overheating of engine could occur if air is not fully purged from system.
Polaris Premium 50/50 Antifreeze is premixed and ready to use. Do not dilute with water.
Coolant Strength
Test the strength of the coolant using an antifreeze hydrometer.
Coolant Level Inspection
The pressure cap1and recovery bottle2are located under the front hood of the vehicle. The coolant level must be maintained between the minimum and maximum levels indicated on the recovery bottle.
With the engine at operating temperature, the coolant level should be between the upper and lower marks on the coolant recovery bottle. If not, perform the following procedure:
1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Remove the front hood.
3. View the coolant level in the recovery bottle.
4. If the coolant level is below the MIN line, inspect the coolant level in the radiator.
• A 50/50 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.
Recommended Coolant:
Polaris Premium Pre-Mixed Antifreeze
(PN 2880514) (Quart)
(PN 2880513) (Gallon)
NOTE: If overheating is evident, allow system to cool completely and check coolant level in the radiator and inspect for signs of trapped air in system.
WARNING
Never remove the pressure cap when the engine is warm or hot. Escaping steam can cause severe burns. The engine must be cool before removing the pressure
cap.
5. Remove the pressure cap. Using a funnel, add coolant to the top of the filler neck.
6. Reinstall the pressure cap.
NOTE: Use of a non-standard pressure cap will not allow the recovery system to function properly.
7. Remove recovery bottle cap and add coolant using a funnel.

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.
Steering Wheel Freeplay
Check steering wheel for specified freeplay and operation.
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 the steering feels
rough, inspect the following components.
• Tie Rod Ends
• Steering Shaft U-Joints
• Steering Gearbox

MAINTENANCE
Tie Rod End / Wheel Hub Inspection
• To check for play in the tie rod end, grasp the steering tie rod, pull in all directions feeling for movement.
• 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 wheel/hub 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.
Wheel Toe Alignment Inspection
1. Place machine on a smooth level surface and set steering wheel in a straight ahead position. Secure the steering wheel in this position.
2. 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 (1).
NOTE: It is important the height of both marks be equally positioned to get an accurate measurement.
3. Measure the distance between the marks and record the measurement. Call this measurement “2”.
• If abnormal movement is detected, inspect the hub and wheel assembly to determine the cause (loose wheel nuts or loose front hub nut).
• Refer to Chapter 7 “Final Drive” for front hub service procedures.

4. Rotate the tires 180° by moving the vehicle forward. Position chalk marks facing rearward, even with the hub/axle center line.

MAINTENANCE
5. Again measure the distance between the marks and record. Call this measurement “3”. Subtract measurement “3” from measurement “2”. The difference between measurements “2” and “3” is the vehicle toe alignment. The recommended vehicle toe tolerance is 1/8 to 3/16″ (3.2 to 4.8 mm) toe out. This means the measurement at the front of the tire (2) is 1/8 to 3/16″ (3.2 to 4.8 mm) wider than the measurement at the rear (3).
Wheel Toe-Out:
(2) - (3) = 1/8" to 3/16″ (3.2 to 4.8 mm)
Wheel Toe Adjustment
If toe alignment is incorrect, repeat steps 3-5 of “Wheel Toe Alignment Inspection”, but instead measure the distance between each wheel and the vehicle center. This will tell you which tie rod needs adjusting.
2
NOTE: Be sure steering wheel is straight ahead before determining which tie rod needs 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 in “Wheel Toe Alignment”.
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.
• After alignment is complete, torque jam nuts to specification.

SUSPENSION (WALKER EVANS™)

Spring Adjustment
The front and rear shocks have a ride height adjustment. Suspension springs may be adjusted to suit different riding conditions or vehicle payloads.
WARNING
Uneven adjustment may cause poor handling of the
vehicle, which could result in an accident and serious
injury or death. Always adjust both the left and right
spring equally.

NOTE: DO NOT increase the spring adjustment by more than one inch (25.4 mm) over the factory setting.
to increase or decrease ride
PN 2878925
The factory setting is appropriate for nearly all riding conditions. Since this vehicle is equipped with full skid plates, adjustment is not necessary.
If desired, the spring setting may be adjusted to maintain vehicle clearance height when carrying loads.
1. Raise and safely support front or rear of the vehicle off the ground to allow the suspension to fully extend.
NOTE: Always return the spring preload to the factory setting after the load is removed from the vehicle. The increased suspension height will negatively impact vehicle stability when operating without a load.

Recommended Coolant
Use only high quality antifreeze/coolant mixed with distilled water in a 50/50 or 60/40 ratio, depending on freeze protection required in your area.
CAUTION: Using tap water in the cooling system will lead to a buildup of deposits which may restrict coolant flow and reduce heat dissipation, resulting in possible engine damage. Polaris Premium 60/40 Antifreeze/ Coolant is recommended for use in all cooling systems and comes pre-mixed, ready to use.
3. The system must maintain 10 psi for five minutes or
longer. If pressure loss is evident within five minutes, check the filler neck, radiator, hoses, clamps and water pump weep hole for leakage.
