Your Polaris ATV has an
auxiliary brake (1) for added

board and is operated by the
right foot. The auxiliary
brake serves as a backup to
the main brake system if the
main system becomes
inoperative.
If the rear wheels slide while
using the auxiliary brake, reduce
brake pedal pressure to brake the
rear wheels without skidding.
Brake Fluid Level
Check the brake fluid level frequently for the auxiliary brake system.
The reservoir is located under the seat or near the auxiliary brake.
Maintain the fluid level between the maximum and minimum marks.
