General Maintenance
Coolant Level
The engine coolant level is controlled by the recovery system. The
recovery system components are:
S
Coolant bottle or overflow tank
S
Engine filler neck
S
Pressure cap (on some models)
S
Connecting hoses
Flushing the Cooling System
To ensure that the coolant maintains its ability to protect the engine,
the system should be completely drained every two years and a fresh
50/50 or 60/40 mixture of antifreeze and distilled water should be
added. This service must be done when the engine is cold. Ask your
Polaris dealer to check the coolant when he performs the fall tune-up
on your snowmobile.
Bleeding the Cooling System
Use of a non-standard pressure cap will not allow the recovery system
to function properly. If the pressure cap needs replacement, contact
your dealer for the correct part.
Steam and hot liquids will cause serious burns to your skin.
Never bleed the cooling system or remove the pressure cap
when the engine is warm or hot.
