MAINTENANCE

Extended Storage

Off-season or extended storage of your snowmobile requires preventive

measures to aid against deterioration and to prolong the useful life of

many components. See page 141 for the part numbers of Polaris prod-

ucts.

Cleaning and Preservation

Proper storage starts with cleaning, washing, and waxing the hood,

chassis, and plastic parts. Wipe down remaining surfaces with a damp

cloth. Clean and touch up with paint any rusted or previously painted

surfaces. Be sure that corrosive salt and acids are removed from surfaces

before beginning preservation with waxes and rust inhibitors (grease, oil

or paint).
The snowmobile should be stored in a dry garage or shed, out of direct

sunlight, and covered with a fabric snowmobile cover. Plastic tarp may

cause condensation to form and damage snowmobile components.

Battery Maintenance

Remove the battery and recharge it as outlined on page 138. Store the

battery in a cool, dry place.

Controls and Linkage

Lubricate all bushings and cables at the intervals outlined in the Periodic

Maintenance Table beginning on page 91.

Bearings

Grease the jackshaft and drive shaft clutch side bearings with Polaris

Premium All-Season Grease or a similar high quality grease to prevent

corrosion.

Clutch and Drive System

Remove the drive belt and store in a cool dry location. Do not lubricate

clutch components, except the driven clutch shaft bushing as outlined in

the service manual. See your dealer.
