FEATURES AND CONTROLS

Brakes

Master Cylinder

Check the brake fluid level in

the master cylinder before each

use of the ATV. The master

cylinder (1) is located on the left

handlebar.
View the fluid level through the

indicator window (2) on the top of

the master cylinder. This eye will

appear dark when the fluid level is

full. When fluid is low, the eye will

be clear. NOTE: When checking the fluid level, position the ATV on

level ground with the handlebars turned so the top of the reservoir is

level. If the fluid level is low, add DOT 3 brake fluid. DO NOT

OVERFILL. See page 130 for the part numbers of Polaris products.

An over-full master cylinder may cause brake drag or brake

lock-up, which could result in serious injury or death. Maintain

brake fluid at the recommended level. Do not overfill.

WARNING

Never store or use a partial bottle of brake fluid. Brake fluid is

hygroscopic, meaning it rapidly absorbs moisture from the air.

The moisture causes the boiling temperature of the brake fluid

to drop, which can lead to early brake fade and the possibility of

accident or severe injury. After opening a bottle of brake fluid,

always discard any unused portion.
