CAUTION

Starting the engine during the storage period will disturb the

the engine during the storage period.

Lubricate
Inspect all cables and lubricate with Polaris Cable Lubricant. Follow

lubrication guidelines in the maintenance section of the service or

owner’s manual to completely grease and lubricate the entire vehicle

with Polaris Premium All Season Grease.
Storage Area/Covers
1. Make sure tire pressure is at specification.
2. Using suitable supports under the frame, raise the vehicle slightly

so that the tires are not touching the ground.

3. Be sure the storage area is well ventilated.
4. Cover the machine with an appropriate cover. Do not use plastic or

coated materials, as they do not allow proper ventilation to prevent

condensation, corrosion and oxidation.
