MAINTENANCE

Intake 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.

NOTICE: Operating the snowmobile

with the intake filters

removed may cause carbu-

retor icing. The result will

be poor fuel economy or

carburetor malfunction.

Always reinstall the intake

filters before operating the

snowmobile.

Variable Exhaust System (VES)

Maintenance of the VES is limited to a periodic inspection and cleaning

of system components. Bring the machine to an authorized POLARIS

dealer to have the VES disassembled, inspected and cleaned at the

intervals outlined in the maintenance charts beginning on page 65.

To ensure maximum performance and minimize required maintenance,

follow the oil recommendations on page 57. The use of other lubricants

may cause improper function of the valve mechanism and increase the

frequency of required cleaning due to excessive build-up of carbon

deposits.

Fuel Pump

All fuel pump service must be performed by an authorized POLARIS

dealer. Do not attempt to service the fuel pump.
