MAINTENANCE
Daily Storage
At the end of each ride, park the snowmo-
bile on a level surface and support it at the
rear with an appropriate track stand. The
track should be suspended approximately
4I (10 cm) off the ground.
Remove the key and cover the machine.
Fall Tune-Up
For maximum performance, arrange for a fall service tune-up with your
Polaris dealer. His experienced and trained service technician will keep
your machine in peak operating condition
Extended Storage
Off-season or extended storage of your snowmobile requires preventive
measures to aid against deterioration and to prolong the useful life of
many components. See page 98 for the part numbers of Polaris products.
Cleaning and Preservation
Proper storage starts with cleaning, washing, and waxing the hood,
chassis, and plastic parts. Wipe down remaining surfaces with a damp
cloth. Clean and touch up with paint any rusted or previously painted
surfaces. Be sure that corrosive salt and acids are removed from sur-
faces before beginning preservation with waxes and rust inhibitors
(grease, oil or paint).
The machine should be stored in a dry garage or shed, out of direct sun-
light, and covered with a fabric snowmobile cover. Plastic tarp may
cause condensation to form and damage snowmobile components.
Controls and Linkage
Lubricate all bushings and cables as outlined in the Periodic Mainte-
nance Table beginning on page 63.
