Throttle Lever

WARNING! An improperly functioning throttle lever may cause erratic machine
behavior and loss of control, which could result in serious injury or death. If the
throttle lever does not work properly, DO NOT start the engine.

If the engine speed limits at 2400 RPM when the throttle lever is
released:

1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.

2. Visually inspect the throttle cable and throttle body to determine

what caused the safety switch to activate.

3. Test the throttle lever by compressing and releasing it several times.

The lever and cable must return to the idle position quickly and
completely.

4. If the throttle lever operates properly, turn the ignition switch on and

go through normal starting procedures.

5. If the engine doesn't start, take the snowmobile to an authorized

POLARIS dealer for service.
