Cleaning and Storage
Storage Tips
CAUTION
Starting the engine during the storage period will disturb the
protective film created by fogging and damage could occur. Never
start the engine during the storage period.
Clean the Exterior
Make any necessary repairs and clean the vehicle as recommended. See
page 97.
Stabilize the Fuel
1. Fill the fuel tank.
2. Polaris Carbon Clean is a fuel stabilizer and fuel system dryer. It
cleans the fuel system, the combustion chamber and the exhaust
ports. It also prevents bacterial growth and promotes better
starting after the storage period.
NOTE:
Carbon Clean removes water from fuel systems, stabilizes
fuel and removes carbon deposits from pistons, rings, valves
and exhaust systems.
3. Allow the engine to run for 15--20 minutes to allow the stabilizer to
disperse through the fuel in the tank and carburetor.
4. Turn the fuel valve off.
5. Drain the carburetor bowl.
Oil and Filter
Change the oil and filter. See page 64.
Air Filter / Air Box
1. Inspect and clean (or replace) the pre-cleaner and air filter.
2. Clean the air box.
3. Drain the sediment tube.
Recoil Housing
Drain the recoil housing. See page 85.
