MAINTENANCE
Throttle Body/Idle RPM
Idle RPM is preset by the manufacturer. If the engine idle speed is not
satisfactory, please see your Polaris dealer for adjustment.
Throttle Cable Freeplay
1. Remove the four cover
screws from the right han-
dlebar control and remove
the cover.
2. With the handlebars
straight ahead, place very
light pressure on the throt-
tle lever. A gap of 2-3 mm
should be visible between
the throttle arm stop pin
and the throttle arm.
If adjustment is needed:
1. Locate the throttle cable
adjuster. Squeeze the end of
the rubber boot and slide it
back far enough to expose
the inline cable adjuster
locknut.
2. Loosen the adjuster lock nut.
3. Rotate the boot to turn the
adjuster until 2-3 mm of
freeplay is achieved between
the stop pin and the throttle
arm. While adjusting free-
play, flip the throttle lever
back and forth repeatedly.
