Oil Recommendations
Polaris recommends the use of Polaris PS-4 PLUS Performance Syn-
thetic 2W-50 4-cycle oil or a similar oil for this engine. Oil may need to
be changed more frequently if Polaris oil is not used. Always use 2W-50
oil. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for ambient tempera-
ture operation. See page 133 for the part numbers of Polaris products.
Oil Level
Access the oil dipstick and fill tube
from the left side of the ATV.
NOTE: A rising oil level between
checks in cool weather driving
can indicate contaminants
such as gas or moisture col-
lecting in the crankcase. If the
oil level is over the full/safe
mark, change the oil immedi-
ately.
1. Position the vehicle on a level
surface.
2. Start the engine. Allow it to idle
for 20-30 seconds. Stop the
engine.
3. Remove the dipstick. Wipe it
dry with a clean cloth.
4. Reinstall the dipstick com-
pletely.
5. Remove the dipstick and check the oil level. Maintain the oil level
in the safe range. Do not overfill.
CAUTION
Mixing brands or using a non-recommended oil may cause serious engine
damage. Always use the recommended oil. Never substitute or mix oil
brands.
