POLARIS VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (PVT)
DRYING
There may be some instances when water is ingested into the PVT system. Use
the following instructions to dry it out before operating:
1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Remove the red drain plug on the outer clutch cover. Allow the water to drain
completely. Reinstall the drain plug.
3. Place the transmission in PARK.
4. Start the engine.
5. Apply varying throttle for 10-15 seconds to expel the moisture and air-dry the
belt and clutches. Do not hold the throttle wide open for more than five (5)
seconds.
6. Allow the engine RPM to settle to idle speed. Apply the brakes. Shift the
transmission to the lowest available range.
7. Test for belt slippage. If the belt slips, repeat the process.
8. Your vehicle requires service as soon as possible. Your POLARIS dealer can
assist.
SHIFT CABLE / LINKAGE INSPECTION
Ensure that shift cable/linkage is clean, free of debris, operation is smooth and
cable boot is not damaged. If operation is not smooth or if the cable boot is
damaged or torn, contact an authorized dealer for service.
