OPERATION

n

Throttle Lever

If the engine speed limits at 2400 RPM when the throttle lever is

released:
1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2. Visually inspect the throttle cable and throttle body to determine

what caused the safety switch to activate.

3. Test the throttle lever by compressing and releasing it several times.

The lever and cable must return to the idle position quickly and

completely.

4. If the throttle lever operates properly, turn the ignition switch on and

go through normal starting procedures.

5. If the engine doesn't start, take the snowmobile to an authorized

Polaris dealer for service.

NOTE:

Excessive freeplay in the throttle cable may cause the safety switch to

activate, preventing the engine from starting. If this occurs, return the

snowmobile to an authorized Polaris dealer for service.

Turbo Noise (Turbo models)

Under some conditions, when the throttle lever is released the boost

pressure dump valve will release pressure, and you may hear the sound

of escaping air. This is a normal occurrence on turbo-charged models.

WARNING

An improperly functioning throttle lever may cause erratic machine behavior

and loss of control, which could result in serious injury or death. If the throttle

lever does not work properly, DO NOT start the engine.
