OPERATION
WARNING
Failure to operate the vehicle properly can result in a collision, loss of control,
accident or rollover, which may result in serious injury or death. Read and
understand all safety warnings outlined in the safety section of this owner’s
manual.
VEHICLE BREAK-IN PERIOD
The break-in period for your new POLARIS vehicle is defined as the first ten
hours of operation, or the time it takes to use the first two full tanks of gasoline.
No single action on your part is as important as a proper break-in period. Careful
treatment of a new engine and drive components will result in more efficient
performance and longer life for these components. Perform the following
procedures carefully.
NOTICE
Excessive heat build-up during the first three hours of operation will damage
close-fitted engine parts and drive components. Do not operate at full throttle
or high speeds during the first three hours of use.
Mixing brands or using a non-recommended oil may cause serious engine
damage. Always use the recommended oil. Never substitute or mix oil brands.
1. Fill the fuel tank with gasoline. Always exercise extreme caution whenever
handling gasoline. Never allow a child to handle gasoline.
2. Check the oil level. See page 54. Add the recommended oil as needed to
maintain the oil level in the safe operating range.
3. Drive slowly at first. Select an open area that allows room to familiarize
yourself with operation and handling.
4. Vary throttle positions. Do not operate at sustained idle.
5. Perform regular checks on fluid levels, controls and areas outlined on the
daily pre-ride inspection checklist. See page 36.
6. Pull only light loads (if equipped with a hitch).
7. Change both the oil and the filter at 20 hours, 200 miles, or one month -
whichever comes first.
