MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Premium 4 Synthetic Lubricant
Polaris Premium 4 All Season synthetic engine oil has been specially
formulated for use in Polaris 4-cycle engines. It’s a fully synthetic,
high performance, multi-viscosity oil designed to provide the ultimate
in lubrication performance and protection.
NOTE: See page 99 for the part numbers of Polaris products.
Premium 4 possesses unsurpassed film strength over the widest
possible temperature range. It resists viscosity and frictional
breakdown in ambient temperatures from -40
°
F. to 120
°
F. (-40 to
+49
°
C.) Its exceptional frictional properties result in more efficient
operation, more power output and lower fuel consumption.
Although Polaris Premium 4 is the only oil recommended for use in
this engine, use of any API certified SH oil is allowable as long as it’s
0W-40. Oil may need to be changed more frequently if Polaris
Premium 4 is not used. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations
for ambient temperature operation.
CAUTION
Mixing brands or using a non-recommended oil may cause
serious engine damage. We recommend the use of Polaris
Premium 4 synthetic Oil or another 0W-40 API certified SH oil.
Never substitute or mix oil brands.
