DRIVE CHAIN AND
SPROCKET
INSPECTION
Polaris ATV drive chains are equipped with O-ring
sealed permanently greased pins and rollers. The
sprockets and outer rollers require periodic
lubrication. Lubricate the chain with Polaris Chain
Lubricant (PN 2872073).
Inspect the drive chain for missing or damaged
O-Rings, link plates, or rollers. Do not wash the chain
with a high pressure washer, gasoline or solvents; do
not use a wire brush to clean the chain as damage to
the O-Rings may occur. Clean chain with hot soapy
water and a soft bristled nylon brush.
Never allow battery acid to contact the drive chain.
