MAINTENANCE Spark Plugs Spark Plug Recommendations Refer to the specifications section beginning on page 108 for the recommended spark plug type and gap for your vehicle. Torque spark plugs to specification. NOTICE: Using non-recommended spark plugs can result in serious engine damage. Always use Polaris-recommended spark plugs. Plug Condition Torque Specification New Spark Plug 9-11 ft. lbs. (12-15 Nm) Previously Installed Spark Plug 17-20 ft. lbs.
MAINTENANCE Spark Plugs Spark Plug Condition Normal Spark Plug The normal insulator tip is gray, tan or light brown. There will be few combustion deposits. The electrodes are not burned or eroded. This indicates the proper type and heat range for the engine and the service. The tip should not be flaky and white. A white insulator tip indicates overheating, caused by use of an improper spark plug or incorrect carburetion adjustments. Wet Fouled Spark Plug The wet fouled insulator tip is black.
MAINTENANCE Vehicle Immersion If your vehicle becomes immersed, major engine damage can result if the machine is not thoroughly inspected. Take the vehicle to your dealer before starting the engine. If it's impossible to take your ATV to a dealer before starting it, follow the steps outlined below. 1. Move the vehicle out of the water. 2. Turn the fuel valve off. 3. Check the air box. If water is present, dry the air box and replace the filter with a new filter. 4. Remove the spark plug. 5.
MAINTENANCE Spark Arrestor WARNING Failure to heed the following warnings while servicing the spark arrestor could result in serious injury or death. Never run the engine in an enclosed area. Remove any combustible materials from the area. Wear eye protection and leather work gloves. Do not stand behind or in front of the vehicle while purging. Never go under the vehicle while it's inclined. The exhaust system can get extremely hot. Do not perform service on the spark arrestor while the system is hot.
MAINTENANCE PVT System WARNING Failure to comply with the instructions in this warning can result in severe injury or death. Do not modify any component of the PVT system. Doing so may reduce its strength so that a failure may occur at a high speed. The PVT system has been precision balanced. Any modification will cause the system to be out of balance, creating vibration and additional loads on components. The PVT system rotates at high speeds, creating large amounts of force on clutch components.
MAINTENANCE PVT System The basic operation of the Polaris PVT system is dependent on engine speed and vehicle torque requirements. As engine speed increases, the force exerted on the movable drive sheave by the flyweights also increases. This, in turn, increases the amount of pinch applied to the drive belt. Similarly, if the engine speed decreases, the amount of centrifugal force decreases, reducing the amount of belt pinch.
MAINTENANCE PVT System PVT Drying There may be some instances when water is accidently ingested into the PVT system. Use the following instructions to dry it out before operating. 1. Move the vehicle out of the water. 2. Remove the PVT drain plug. Allow the water to drain completely. Reinstall the drain plug. 3. Start the engine. Place the transmission in neutral. 4. Apply varying throttle for 10-15 seconds to expel the moisture and air-dry the belt and clutches.
MAINTENANCE Battery WARNING Improperly connecting or disconnecting battery cables can result in an explosion and cause serious injury or death. When removing the battery, always disconnect the negative (black) cable first. When reinstalling the battery, always connect the negative (black) cable last. WARNING Battery electrolyte is poisonous. It contains sulfuric acid. Serious burns can result from contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Antidote: External: Flush with water.
MAINTENANCE Battery Battery Removal 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Place the transmission in gear. Lock the parking brake. Remove the seat. Disconnect the battery hold-down strap.
