CONTROL AND PARTS FUNCTIONS
4 Cycle Premium 4 Synthetic Lubricant
Polaris Premium 4 All Season Synthetic engine oil has been specially formulated
for use in Polaris 4 cycle engines. It is a fully synthetic, high performance, multi-vis-
cosity oil designed to provide the ultimate in lubrication performance and protec-
tion.
Premium 4 possesses unsurpassed film strength over the widest possible temper-
ature range. It resists viscosity and frictional breakdown in ambient temperatures
from -40° F to 120° F. Its exceptional frictional properties result in more efficient
operation, more power output and lower fuel consumption.
Although Polaris Premium 4 is the only oil recommended for use in this engine, use
of any API certified SH oil is allowable. Oil may need to be changed more fre-
quently if Polaris Premium 4 is not used. You will also need to follow the manufac-
turers recommendations for ambient temperature operation.
Oil System
The oil tank is located on the left side of the vehicle. To check the oil:
1. Set machine on a level surface.
2. Start the engine and let it
idle for 20-30 seconds.
3. Stop the engine, remove
dipstick (1) and wipe dry
with a clean cloth.
4. Screw in the dipstick
completely, remove it and
read the oil level. NOTE:
The dipstick must be
screwed in to keep the
angle and depth of stick
consistent.
5. Remove dipstick and check
to see that the oil level is
between the full and add
marks. Add oil as indicated
by the level on the dipstick.
Do not overfill.
CAUTION: Use only Polaris
Premium 4 All Season synthetic
oil (PN 2871271), or API certified
SH oil. Never substitute or mix
oil brands. Serious engine dam-
age and voiding of warranty can
result.
