Gearcase Oil Level
Check the gearcase oil level at the
intervals outlined in the maintenance
charts beginning on page 63. Change
the gearcase oil after the first 500
miles (800 km), then every 1000 miles
(1600 km) or seasonally.
To check the oil level, place the snow-
mobile on a level surface. The oil
level should be between the “safe”
marks on the dipstick (1). See your
POLARIS dealer for the recom-
mended oil for your snowmobile. Do
not overfill.
Clean the magnetic plug (2) every 500
miles (800 km) and whenever check-
ing or changing lubricant.
NOTICE: Mixing brands or using non-
recommended lubricants could
result in excessive wear to
chain, sprockets and bearings. Always use POLARIS-recommended
products for your vehicle.
