RADIATOR COOLANT
To ensure that the coolant maintains its ability to protect the engine, we
recommend that the system be completely drained every five (5) years and fresh
Antifreeze 50/50 Premix added.
Any time the cooling system has been drained for maintenance or repair,
replace the coolant with fresh Antifreeze 50/50 Premix. If the recovery bottle has
run dry, check the level in the radiator. Add coolant as needed.
CAUTION
Escaping steam can cause burns. Never remove the pressure cap while the
engine is warm or hot. Always allow the engine to cool before removing the
pressure cap.
1. Access the pressure cap under the front box. See the Front Compartment
section for details.
2. Remove the pressure cap.
3. Using a funnel, slowly add coolant through the radiator filler neck.
4. Reinstall the pressure cap. Use of a non-standard pressure cap will not allow
the recovery system to function properly. Your POLARIS dealer can provide
the correct replacement part.
5. Close and secure the front box and cover.
BRAKES
HAND BRAKE
CAUTION
Brake discs can become extremely hot after operation. Allow the discs to cool
before performing maintenance to prevent risk of burns.
The front and rear brakes are hydraulic disc brakes, activated by moving the
single brake lever toward the handlebar. These brakes are self- adjusting.
Under normal operation, the diaphragm extends into the reservoir as fluid level
drops. The diaphragm is inside, under the reservoir cap, integrated into the seal
for the master cylinder. If the fluid level is low and the diaphragm is not
extended, a leak is likely and the diaphragm should be replaced. To ensure
proper diaphragm operation, always fill the reservoir as needed whenever the
cover is loosened or removed. Do not overfill.
