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
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. 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.
WARNING
An over-full master cylinder may cause brake drag or brake lock- up, which
could result in serious injury or death. Maintain brake fluid at the recommended
level. Do not overfill.
The following checks are recommended to keep the brake system in good
operating condition. Check more often if brakes are used heavily under normal
operation.
