PVT SYSTEM
WARNING
Do not modify any component of the PVT system. Doing so may reduce its
strength so that a failure may occur at a high speed. The PVT system has been
precision balanced. Any modification will cause the system to be out of
balance, creating vibration and additional loads on components.
The PVT system rotates at high speeds, creating large amounts of force on
clutch components. Extensive engineering and testing has been conducted to
ensure the safety of this product. However, as the owner, you have the
following responsibilities to make sure this system remains safe:
• Always follow all recommended maintenance procedures. Always look for
and remove debris inside and around the clutch and vent system when
replacing the belt.
• See your dealer as outlined in the owner's manual.
• This PVT system is intended for use on POLARIS products only. Do not
install it in any other product.
• Always make sure the PVT housing is securely in place during operation.
PVT DRYING
There may be some instances when water is accidently ingested into the PVT
system. Use the following instructions to dry it out before operating.
1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Remove the drain plug. Allow the water to drain completely. Reinstall the
drain plug.
3. Start the engine. Place the transmission in PARK.
4. Apply varying throttle for 10-15 seconds to expel the moisture and air-dry the
belt and clutches. Do not hold the throttle wide open for more than 5
seconds.
5. Allow the engine RPM to settle to idle speed, then shift the transmission to
low range.
6. Test for belt slippage. If the belt slips, repeat the process. Your vehicle
requires service as soon as possible, which your authorized dealer can
provide.
