CLEAN THE EXTERIOR
Make any necessary repairs and clean the vehicle as recommended. See the
Washing the Vehicle section.
STABILIZE THE FUEL
1. Fill the fuel tank.
2. Add POLARIS Carbon Clean Fuel Treatment or POLARIS Fuel Stabilizer or
equivalent fuel treatments or stabilizers. Follow the instructions on the
container for the recommended amount. Carbon Clean removes water from
fuel systems, stabilizes fuel and removes carbon deposits from pistons,
rings, valves and exhaust systems.
3. Allow the engine to run for 15-20 minutes to allow the stabilizer to disperse
through the entire fuel delivery system.
OIL AND FILTER
Change the oil and filter. See the Engine Oil section.
AIR FILTER / AIR BOX
1. Inspect and clean (or replace) the pre-cleaner and air filter. See the Air Filter
section.
2. Clean the air box.
FLUID LEVELS
Inspect the fluid levels. Add or change fluids as recommended in the Periodic
Maintenance Chart.
Demand drive fluid (front gearcase)
Rear gearcase fluid (if equipped)
Transmission fluid
Brake fluid (change every two years and any time the fluid looks dark or
contaminated)
Coolant (test strength/fill)
FOG THE ENGINE
1. Treat the fuel system with POLARIS Carbon Clean or other equivalent fuel
treatment. Follow the instructions on the container. Start the engine. Allow it
to idle for several minutes so the Carbon Clean reaches the injectors. Stop
the engine.
2. Remove the spark plugs and add 2-3 tablespoons of engine oil. To access
the plug holes, use a section of clear 1/4” hose and a small plastic squeeze
bottle filled with the pre-measured amount of oil. Do this carefully! If you miss
the plug holes, oil will drain from the spark plug cavities into the hole at the
front of the cylinder head, and appear to be an oil leak.
3. Reinstall the spark plugs. Torque to specification.
