GENERAL INFORMATION
GLOSSARY OF TERMS
ABDC
: After bottom dead center.
ACV
: Alternating current voltage.
Alternator
: Electrical generator producing voltage alternating current.
ATDC
: After top dead center.
BBDC
: Before bottom dead center.
BDC
: Bottom dead center.
BTDC
: Before top dead center.
CC
: Cubic centimeters.
Center Distance:
Distance between center of crankshaft and center of driven clutch shaft.
Chain Pitch
: Distance between chain link pins (No. 35 = 3/8" or 1 cm). 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 taper and out-of-round in the cylinder
bore.
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
touching 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.
Inch Pound
: In. lb. 12 in. lbs. = 1 ft. lb.
kg/cm
2
: Kilograms per square centimeter.
kg-m
: Kilogram meters.
Kilogram/meter
: A force of one kilogram at the end of a lever one meter in length, applied in a rotational direction.
l or ltr
: Liter.
lbs/in
2
: Pounds per square inch.
Left or Right Side
: Always referred to based on normal operating position of the driver.
m
: Meter/meters.
Mag
: Magneto.
Magnetic Induction
: As a conductor (coil) is moved through a magnetic field, a voltage will be generated in the windings. Mechanical
energy is converted to electrical energy in the stator.
mi
.: Mile/miles.
mm
: Millimeter. Unit of length in the metric system. 1 mm = approximately .040".
Nm
: Newton meters.
OD
: Outside diameter.
Ohm
: The unit of electrical resistance opposing current flow.
oz
.: Ounce/ounces.
Piston Clearance
: Total distance between piston and cylinder wall.
psi
.: Pounds per square inch.
PTO
: Power take off.
qt
.: Quart/quarts.
Regulator
: Voltage regulator. Regulates battery charging system output at approx. 14.5 DCV as engine RPM increases.
Reservoir Tank
: The fill tank in the liquid cooling system.
Resistance
: In the mechanical sense, friction or load. In the electrical sense, ohms, resulting in energy conversion to heat.
RPM
: Revolutions per minute.
Seized Piston
: Galling of the sides of a piston. Usually there is a transfer of aluminum from the piston onto the cylinder wall.
Possible causes
: 1) improper lubrication; 2) excessive temperatures; 3) insufficient piston clearance; 4) stuck piston rings.
Stator Plate
: The plate mounted under the flywheel supporting the battery charging coils.
TDC
: Top dead center. Piston's most outward travel from crankshaft.
Volt
: The unit of measure for electrical pressure of electromotive force. Measured by a voltmeter in parallel with the circuit.
Watt:
Unit of electrical power. Watts = amperes x volts.
WOT
: Wide open throttle.
