MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION

Cleaning and Storage

Storage Tips

Inspect and Lubricate
Inspect all cables and lubricate all areas of the vehicle as recommended

in the Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 60.
Battery Storage
See pages 93-96 for storage and charging procedures.
Storage Area/Covers
Set the tire pressure and safely support the ATV with the tires slightly

off the ground. Be sure the storage area is well ventilated. Cover the

vehicle with a genuine Polaris cover.

NOTE: Do not use plastic or coated materials. They do not allow

enough ventilation to prevent condensation, and may promote

corrosion and oxidation.

Transporting an ATV

Follow these procedures when

transporting an ATV.
1. Turn off the engine and remove

the key to prevent loss during

transporting.

2. Turn the fuel valve off.
3. Be sure the fuel cap, oil cap and

seat are installed correctly and

securely.

4. Always tie the frame of the ATV

to the transporting unit securely

using suitable straps or rope. The

rack, bumper or handlebars do not

offer enough support for tie-down

while transporting the unit.

5. Always place the transmission in

gear and lock the parking brake.
