60 PRE-RIDE INSPECTIONS S t art the Engine and Check Before starting the engine, always refer to all safety warnings pertaining to snowmobile operation. Never engage the starter when the engine is running. Never start the engine without checking all vehicle components to be sure of proper operation.
61 OPERA TION S t arting the Engine NOTICE: Engaging the starter when the engine is run ning WILL result in serious engine damage, especially if the transmission is in reverse. Never engage the starter when the engine is runni ng. 1. T u rn the key to the ON position.
62 OPERA TION S t arting the Engine Rest artin g an Engine If the rider stops the engine by pushing the engine stop switch down, restart the engine using the normal starting procedure. If the engine fails to start using the normal procedure: 1. Push the engine stop switch down to the OFF position.
63 OPERA TION Break-In Period Engine Break-In Always follow these recommended break-in procedures for new or rebuilt engines. The first tank of fuel is considered the break-in period for the engine. Premix the first tank of fuel and fill the oil reservoir as outlined below .
64 OPERA TION Break-In Period Engine Break-In Excessive heat build-up during the first three hours of operation will damage close-fitted engine parts. Do not operate at full throttle or high speeds for extended periods during the fi rst three hours of use.
65 OPERA TION T rack W arm-Up W ARNING! A loose track or flying debris could cause serious injury or death. S tand clear of the front of the snowmobile and the moving track. Never hold the snowmobile up or stand behind it while warming up the track. Do not use excessive throttle during warm-up or when the track is free-hanging.

82 MAINTENANCE Lubrication Driveshaf t Bearing Inject grease into the fitting on the speedometer sensor housing until grease purges from the seal on the inside of the tunnel.
83 MAINTENANCE Int ake Filters The intake foam filters limit snow ingestion into the intake system. When operating in loose powder snow , check the foam filters periodically to remove any accumulation of snow . Fuel Pump All fuel pump service must be performed by an authorized POLARIS dealer .
84 MAINTENANCE Spar k P l u g s Sp ark Plug Recommendations A new engine can cause temporary sp ark plug fouling due to the preservative added during the assembly process. A void prolonged idle speeds, which cause plug fouling and carbonization. Refer to the specifications section for the specific spark plug to be used in your snowmobile.
85 MAINTENANCE Spar k P l u g s Sp ark Plug Insp ection Spark plug condition is indicative of engine operation. The spark plug firing end condition should be read after the engine has been warmed up and the vehicle has been driven at higher speeds. Immediately check the spark plug for correct color .
86 MAINTENANCE Oil Lines Inspect oil line condition every 1000 miles (1600 km) as outlined in the maintenance charts beginning on page 75. Oil Filter Please see your dealer for replacement of the in-line oil filter every 2000 miles (3200 km) as outlined in the maintenance charts beginning on page 75.
87 MAINTENANCE Cooling System Coolant The coolant supplied in the system at the factory is a 50/50 mixture of ethylene-glycol and distilled water , which will provide adequate freeze protection under most conditions.

If the sight glass is any color other than black, add brake fluid. Replace brake fluid at least every two years with POLARIS DOT 4 high temperature brake fluid.
94 MAINTENANCE Brakes Bleeding the Hydraulic Brake System Air in the hydraulic brake system will cause spongy brake lever action. Bleed the system before operating the snowmobile. W ARNING! Operating the vehicle wi th a spongy brake lever can result in loss of brakes, which could cause an accident and lead to serious in jury or death.
95 MAINTENANCE Light s When servicing a halogen lamp, avoi d touching the lamp with bare fingers. Oil from your skin leaves a residue, causing a hot spot that will shorten the life of the lamp. If fingers do touch a lamp, clean it with denatured alcohol.
96 MAINTENANCE Clutch System Periodically inspect clutch sheaves for damage, wear or belt residue. T o maintain optimum performance, clean with non-oil based cleaners such as isopropyl alcohol. W ARNING! If you become aware of higher than normal clutch engagement or an unusual vibration or shift pattern, see your dealer immediatel y .
97 MAINTENANCE Clutch System Drive Belt Condition Periodically check the condition and tension of the drive belt. Inspect the belt for signs of excessive wear (frayed edges, missing cogs, cracks) and excessive looseness. Replace the belt if any of these conditions exist.
98 MAINTENANCE Clutch System Drive Belt Deflection Measure belt deflection with both clutches at rest and in their full neutral position. Place a straight edge (1) on the belt and apply downward pressure while measuring at point 2. This measurement should be 1 1/4 inches (3.
99 MAINTENANCE Clutch System Drive Belt Removal NOTICE: Do not attempt to remove the dri ve belt after opera ting in reverse. The snowmobile must be stop ped after forward moti on to prevent damage to components during belt removal.
100 MAINTENANCE Clutch System Drive Belt Inst allation 1. W ith the L-wrench inserted into the threaded hole and the sheaves in the open position, install the drive belt. TIP: Install the belt so that the numbers can be read correctly on the left side of the vehicle, or in th e direction in which the belt was ori ginally installed.
101 MAINTENANCE T rack Maintenance T rack Inspection W ARNING! Broken track rods can cause a rotating track to come off the snowmobile, which could cause seri ous injury or death. Never operate with a damaged track. Never rotate a damaged track under power .
102 MAINTENANCE T rack Maintenance W ARNING! Moving parts can cut and crush body parts. When performing the checks and adjustments recommended on the following pages, stay clear of all moving part s. Never perform track measur ement or adjustme nts with the engine running.
103 MAINTENANCE T rack Maintenance T rack T ension 5. Check for specified slack between the wear surface of the track clip and the plastic slider . Refer to the Track T ension Data Chart on page 102. If the track needs adjustment: 6. Loosen the rear idler shaft bolt.
104 MAINTENANCE T rack Maintenance T rack Alignment Periodically check that the track is centered and running evenly on the slide rails. Misalignment will cause excessive wear to the track and slide rail. 1. Safely support t he rear of the snowmobile with the track of f the ground.
