POWER STEERING UNIT
If your model is equipped with power steering, frequently clean the areas around
and on the power steering unit to allow proper cooling. Clean these areas
thoroughly.
STEERING ASSEMBLY
The steering assembly of the ATV should be checked periodically for loose nuts
and bolts. If loose nuts and bolts are found, see your authorized dealer or other
qualified service facility before operating the vehicle.
COOLING SYSTEM
The engine coolant level is controlled, or maintained, by the recovery system.
The recovery system components are the recovery bottle, the radiator filler neck,
the radiator pressure cap and the connecting hose.
As coolant operating temperature increases, the expanding (heated) excess
coolant is forced out of the engine, past the pressure cap, and into the recovery
bottle. As engine coolant temperature decreases the contracting (cooled)
coolant is drawn back up from the bottle, past the pressure cap, and into the
radiator.
Some coolant level drop on new vehicles is normal as the system is purging
itself of trapped air. Check the coolant level and maintain as recommended by
adding coolant to the recovery bottle.
POLARIS recommends the use of POLARIS Antifreeze 50/50 Premix. This
antifreeze is already premixed and ready to use. Do not dilute with water. See
the Polaris Products section for the part numbers.
