Cleaning and Storage
Storage Tips
Inspect and Lubricate
Inspect all cables and lubricate all areas of the vehicle as recommended
in the Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 60.
Battery Storage
See pages 93-96 for storage and charging procedures.
Storage Area/Covers
Set the tire pressure and safely support the ATV with the tires slightly
off the ground. Be sure the storage area is well ventilated. Cover the
vehicle with a genuine Polaris cover.
NOTE: Do not use plastic or coated materials. They do not allow
enough ventilation to prevent condensation, and may promote
corrosion and oxidation.
Transporting an ATV
Follow these procedures when
transporting an ATV.
1. Turn off the engine and remove
the key to prevent loss during
transporting.
2. Turn the fuel valve off.
3. Be sure the fuel cap, oil cap and
seat are installed correctly and
securely.
4. Always tie the frame of the ATV
to the transporting unit securely
using suitable straps or rope. The
rack, bumper or handlebars do not
offer enough support for tie-down
while transporting the unit.
5. Always place the transmission in
gear and lock the parking brake.
