satisfactory, please see your POLARIS dealer for adjustment.
Throttle Cable Freeplay
1. Remove the four cover
screws from the right
handlebar control and
remove the cover.
2. With the handlebars
straight ahead, place very
light pressure on the
throttle 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 in-line cable
adjuster locknut.
2. Loosen the adjuster
locknut.
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 freeplay, flip the
throttle lever back and
forth repeatedly.
