Storage Tips
Battery Storage
Remove the battery from the vehicle and ensure that it’s fully
charged before placing it in storage. See Chapter 10 for
instructions.
Engine Anti-Freeze
Test engine coolant strength and change if necessary. Coolant
should be replaced every two years.
Storage Area/Covers
Set the tire pressure and safely support the ATV with the tires 1-
2” off the ground. Be sure the storage area is well ventilated, and
cover the machine with a genuine Polaris ATV 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 the ATV
Follow these procedures when transporting the vehicle.
1. Turn off the engine and remove the key to prevent loss
during transporting.
2. Always place the transmission in park and lock the parking
brake.
3. Turn the fuel valve off.
4. Be sure the fuel cap, oil cap and seat are installed correctly.
5. Always tie the frame of the ATV to the transporting unit
securely using suitable straps or rope.
