7. Turn the assembly over and begin upholstering by lining up the seat cover vinyl side flaps with the indented
square location indicators located on the plastic seat base as shown in Ill. 1A.
CAUTION:
Apply staples in the stapling channel only. See Ill 1. If you apply staples outside the channel, you will damage
the fuel tank reservoir in the seat base. If this happens you must replace the entire seat base assembly.
8. Using a staple gun, tack each side of the vinyl cover in place using two staples. If cover has a Polaris emblem
carefully align emblem with bottom edge of seat. This will help ensure that the cover is positioned properly.
9. Align the two sewn seams located at the rear of the seat cover with the two back corners of the seat base. See
Ill. 1. Pull the vinyl tight and tack the seat cover to the plastic seat base in each corner. Use two or three
staples per corner.
10. Now that the seat cover is correctly positioned, and tacked to the plastic seat base in four places, turn the
assembly over and inspect it. If the seat cover seems to fit correctly and everything looks straight, including
the tool compartment flap, continue with step 11.
11. Staple the remainder of the unattached seat cover to
the plastic seat base as shown in Ill. 1. HINT: Always
staple between two existing staples and follow this
procedure until the seat cover is completely stapled
to the seat base. See Ill. 2.
12. Turn the seat cushion assembly over and inspect for
wrinkles or imperfections. If imperfections are
visible, remove the staples in the affected area and
staple correctly.
