4 Cycle Premium 4 Synthetic Lubricant

Polaris Premium 4 All Season Synthetic engine oil has been specially

formulated for use in Polaris 4 cycle engines. It is a fully synthetic,

high performance, multi-viscosity oil designed to provide the ultimate

in lubrication performance and protection.
Premium 4 possesses unsurpassed film strength over the widest

possible temperature range. It resists viscosity and frictional

breakdown in ambient temperatures from -40° F to 120° F. Its

exceptional frictional properties result in more efficient operation, more

power output and lower fuel consumption.
Although Polaris Premium 4 is the only oil recommended for use in

this engine, use of any API certified “SH” oil is allowable. Oil may

need to be changed more frequently if Polaris Premium 4 is not used.

You will also need to follow the manufacturers recommendations for

ambient temperature operation.

Fuel Filter

Your Polaris RANGER is equipped with an in-line fuel filter that

should be replaced by your dealer after every 100 hours of operation.
Do not attempt to clean these filters.
