Low Oil Indicator Light

The low oil indicator light will alert the operator if the oil level is low.

Visually check the oil level in the bottle. Add oil before further

operation of the snowmobile. See page 61 for oil recommendations.

n

Low Oil Level

Always maintain the oil level above the

tank’s low level line. This is especially

important when the machine is operated

in mountainous terrain. Maintaining the

proper oil level will prevent system

aeration and possible loss of pumping

action, which could result in engine

damage.
If necessary, the engine may be operated

as long as oil is visible in the oil tank. If

oil is not visible, continued operation

may cause serious engine damage. See

page 61 for oil recommendations.

CAUTION

Operating the snowmobile without adequate engine lubrication

can result in serious engine damage. Always check the oil level

when refueling. Add oil as needed to maintain the level above

the low level mark.

The Polaris oil cap on the oil bottle is vented to allow proper oil flow.

See your Polaris dealer for recommended replacement parts.
