MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Adjustments
Brakes (Front)
The front brakes are hydraulic disc brakes. These brakes are
self-adjusting.
The following checks are recommended to keep the hydraulic brake
system in good operating condition. Check more often if brakes are
used heavily under normal operation.
WARNING
Never store or use a partial bottle of brake fluid. Brake fluid is
hygroscopic, meaning it rapidly absorbs moisture from the air.
The moisture causes the boiling temperature of the brake fluid to
drop, which can lead to early brake fade and the possibility of
accident or severe injury. After opening a bottle of brake fluid,
always discard any unused portion.
WARNING
An over-full master cylinder may cause brake drag or brake
lock-up, which could result in serious injury or death. Maintain
brake fluid at the recommended level. Do not overfill.
1. Always keep brake fluid at an adequate level (see page 35).
NOTE:
Under normal operation, the diaphragm extends into the
reservoir as fluid level drops. If the fluid level is low and the
diaphragm is not extended, a leak is likely and the diaphragm
should be replaced. Always fill the reservoir as needed
whenever the cover is loosened or removed to ensure proper
diaphragm operation. Use Polaris DOT 3 brake fluid. Do not
overfill.
2. Check the brake system for fluid leaks.
3. Check the brakes for excessive travel or
spongy feel.
4. Check the friction pads for wear,
damage and looseness.
5. Check the security and surface
condition of the disc.
NOTE:
Change the brake pads when
they’re worn to 3/64
″
(.1 cm).
