OPERATION

Engine Break-In

Oil Injection System

Always fill the oil tank when refueling. See page 63.

CAUTION

Serious engine damage can occur without the proper lubrication.

Check the oil tank level often during the first tank of fuel. If the oil

level doesn’t go down, contact your dealer immediately.

Oil Recommendations

This snowmobile is equipped with a variable exhaust system (VES).

Engine lubrication comes from oil added to the fuel and oil injection

systems. Polaris recommends the use of VES II 2 Cycle Oil for this

engine. See page 108 for the part numbers of Polaris products.
Never mix brands of oil. Serious chemical reactions can cause

injection system blockage, resulting in serious engine damage. Oils

may also be incompatible and the result could be sludge formation,

filter blockage, and reduced cold weather flow rates. All Polaris oils

are compatible with each other.

Slide Rail and Track Cooling

CAUTION

Inadequate cooling and lubrication will lead to overheating of the

slide rail and track, resulting in premature wear and failure.

Reduce speeds and frequently drive into fresh snow to allow

adequate cooling and polishing of the slide rail and track

surfaces. Avoid operating on ice, hard-packed surfaces or roads.

CAUTION

High speed use on hardpacked surfaces is not recommended for

models equipped with a deep lug track. Track lug damage may

occur. Keep high speed use to a minimum, including frequent

slow-speed intervals for track cooling.
