HOOD/SIDE PANEL

The hood and side panels of the snowmobile protect the operator from moving
parts. Never operate a snowmobile with the hood or side panels open or
removed. Always ensure that the hood and side panels are securely in place
before starting the engine.

To open a side panel, do the following:

1. Rotate the two 1/4-turn fasteners, located at the upper edges of the side

panel

, counterclockwise.

2. Release the side panel strap at the lower edge of the panel

To remove an open side panel:

1. Pull the panel outward to release the tabs at the lower edge of the panel.

NOTICE

Removing the hood is not recommended. Any service requiring the removal of

the hood should be performed by an authorized POLARIS dealer, or equivalent

person.
