MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Adjustments
Rear Brake
The transmission brake is a
hydraulic disc brake and is
activated by the same lever that
activates the front brake
system. The transmission
brake system is self-adjusting
and requires no maintenance
other than periodic checks of
the pads for wear.
Pads should be changed when
worn to 3/64
″
(.1 cm) which is
about the thickness of a dime.
Inspect the brake disc spline
and pad wear surface for
excessive wear.
Throttle Cable Free Play Adjustment
Throttle cable free play is adjusted at the handlebar.
1. Slide the boots (1) off the inline cable adjuster sleeve (2). Loosen
the adjuster locknut (3).
2. Turn the adjuster until 1/16
″
to 1/8
″
freeplay is achieved at the
thumb lever. Flip the throttle lever several times to confirm
adjustment.
3. Tighten the locknut and slide the boots over the cable adjuster until
they touch at the middle point of the adjuster.
Front Wheel Hub Tightening
Front wheel bearing tightness and spindle nut retention are critical
component operations. Service must be performed by your authorized
Polaris dealer.
