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.
