OPERATION
Engine Break-In
No single action on your part is as important to long, trouble-free
machine life as proper break-in of a new or rebuilt engine.
Always premix the initial fuel and future fuel as outlined in the tables
on page 51.
CAUTION
Excessive heat build-up during the first three hours of operation will
damage close-fitted engine parts. Do not operate at full throttle or high
speeds for extended periods during the first three hours of use. Vary the
throttle openings and machine speeds to reduce friction on all close-fitting
machined parts, allowing them to break in slowly without damage.
Use of any lubricants other than those recommended by Polaris may
cause serious engine damage. We recommend the use of Polaris
lubricants for your vehicle.
Drive with extra caution during the break-in period. Perform regular
checks on fluid levels, lines, and all other important areas of the machine.
Oil Recommendations
Never mix brands of oil. Serious chemical reactions can cause system
blockage, resulting in serious engine damage. They may also be
incompatible and the result could be sludge formation, filter blockage,
and reduced cold weather flow rates. All Polaris oils are compatible
with each other. See page 99 for the part numbers of Polaris products.
Recommended Oils
600 IQ Racer 2-Cycle Racing Oil
600RR VES II 2-Cycle Oil or 2-Cycle Racing Oil
600 IQ Racer
The only source of engine lubrication for this engine comes from
lubrication added to the fuel. Always premix the fuel.
600RR
Engine lubrication comes from oil added to the fuel and oil injection
systems. Always check and fill the oil tank when refueling. See page
55.
CAUTION
Serious engine damage can occur without the proper lubrication. Check
the oil tank level often during the first tank of fuel. If the oil level doesn’t
go down, contact y our dealer immediately.
