COOLING SYSTEM
Cooling System Overview
The engine coolant level is controlled, or maintained, by
the recovery system. The recovery system components
are the recovery bottle, radiator filler neck, radiator
pressure cap and connecting hose.
As coolant operating temperature increases, the
expanding (heated) excess coolant is forced out of the
radiator past the pressure cap and into the recovery
bottle. As engine coolant temperature decreases the
contracting (cooled) coolant is drawn back up from the
tank past the pressure cap and into the radiator.
NOTE: Some coolant level drop on new machines is
normal as the system is purging itself of trapped air.
Observe coolant levels often during the break-in
period.
IMPORTANT: Overheating of engine could occur if
air is not fully purged from system.
Polaris Premium 60/40 coolant is already premixed and
ready to use. Do not dilute with water.
Coolant Level Inspection
The pressure cap and recovery bottle are located under
the front hood of the vehicle. The coolant level must be
maintained between the minimum and maximum levels
indicated on the recovery bottle.
With the engine at operating temperature, the coolant
level should be between the upper and lower marks on
the coolant recovery bottle. If not, perform the following
procedure:
1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Remove the hood from the front cab.
3. View the coolant level in the recovery bottle.
4. If the coolant level is below the MIN line, inspect the
coolant level in the radiator.
NOTE: If overheating is evident, allow system to
cool completely and check coolant level in the
radiator and inspect for signs of trapped air in
system.
WARNING
Never remove the pressure cap when the engine is
warm or hot. Escaping steam can cause severe burns.
The engine must be cool before removing the pressure
cap.
5. Remove the pressure cap. Using a funnel, add
coolant to the top of the filler neck.
6. Reinstall the pressure cap.
NOTE: Use of a non-standard pressure cap will
not allow the recovery system to function
properly.
7. Remove recovery bottle cap and add coolant using a
funnel.
8. Fill recovery bottle to MAX level with Polaris 60/40
premix Anti Freeze/Coolant or 50/50 or 60/40
mixture of antifreeze and distilled water as required
for freeze protection in your area.
9. Reinstall the recovery bottle cap.
10. If coolant was required, start engine and check for
leaks. Make sure radiator fins are clean to prevent
overheating.
Coolant Strength / Type
Test the strength of the coolant using an antifreeze
hydrometer.
• A 50/50 or 60/40 mixture of antifreeze and distilled
water will provide the optimum cooling, corrosion
protection, and antifreeze protection.
• Do not use tap water, straight antifreeze, or
straight water in the system. Tap water contains
minerals and impurities which build up in the
system.
