MAINTENANCE

Extended Storage

Electrical Connections

Separate electrical connector blocks and clean corrosive build-up from
connectors. Lubricate or pack connector blocks with dielectric grease
and re-connect. See page 103 for the part numbers of POLARIS prod-
ucts.

Replace worn or frayed electrical wire and connectors. Be sure wiring
harness is properly secured away from sharp edges, steering linkage,
moving parts, and hot exhaust parts.

Battery

Always prepare and maintain the battery as outlined on page 95.

Track and Suspension

Moderate track tension should be maintained during summer storage.
The snowmobile should be supported off the ground to allow the track
to hang freely.

Transporting the Snowmobile

Whenever the snowmobile is transported:

1. Turn the fuel valve off.

2. Be sure the fuel cap and oil cap are installed correctly.

3. Always tie the snowmobile to the transporting unit securely using

suitable straps.

4. Remove the ignition key to prevent loss.
