Oil Recommendations

Polaris recommends the use of Performance Synthetic 4-Stroke oil (PS-

4 or PS-4 Plus) for this engine. PS-4 has been specially formulated for

use in Polaris 4-cycle snowmobile engines. It's a fully synthetic, high

performance, multi-viscosity oil designed to provide the ultimate in

lubrication performance and protection.
Always check and change the oil at the intervals outlined in the Periodic

Maintenance Chart beginning on page 50. Perform the break-in oil

change after 20 hours of operation. Always change the oil any time it's

contaminated with water, fuel or debris.

Oil Level

Maintain the oil level between the upper and lower marks on the dip-

stick.
1. Position the vehicle on a level

surface.

2. Stop the engine.
3. Remove the dipstick and wipe

it dry with a clean shop towel.

4. Insert the dipstick into the oil

fill hole completely, but do

not thread it.

5. Remove the dipstick and view

the oil level.

6. If the oil level is below the

lower mark on the dipstick,

add the recommended oil to

the upper mark.

CAUTION

Mixing brands or using a non-recommended oil may cause serious engine

damage. Always use the recommended oil. Never substitute or mix oil brands.
