OPERATION
Failure to operate the vehicle properly can result in a collision, loss of control,
accident or overturn, which may result in serious injury or death. Read and
understand all safety warnings outlined in the safety section of this owner’s
manual.
Break-In Period
The break-in period for your new Polaris Quadricycle is the first ten
hours of operation, or the time it takes to use the first two full tanks of
gasoline. No single action on your part is as important as following the
procedures for a proper break-in. Careful treatment of a new engine and
drive components will result in more efficient performance and longer
life for these components.
NOTICE: Do not operate at full throttle or high speeds during the first three
hours of use.
Engine and Drivetrain Break-in
1. Fill the fuel tank with gasoline. See page 27. Always exercise
extreme caution whenever handling gasoline.
2. Check the oil level. See page 52. Add oil as needed to maintain the
level in the proper range.
3. Drive slowly at first. Select an open area that allows room to famil-
iarize yourself with vehicle operation and handling.
4. Vary the throttle positions. Do not operate at sustained idle.
5. Perform regular checks on fluid levels, controls and areas outlined
on the daily pre-ride inspection checklist. See page 31.
6. Pull only light loads (if equipped with a hitch).
7. Change both the oil and the filter at 20 hours or one month, which-
ever comes first.
