OPERATION
Starting the Engine
After the Engine Starts
1. If the engine slows or stops, use of the choke at half way in will
allow proper engine warm up.
2. Vary the engine RPM slightly with the throttle to aid in warm up
until the engine idles smoothly. Then push the choke all the way
in.
Cold Weather Operation
Polaris offers an engine heater kit for cold operation.
If you use your ATV all year round, it is important to check your oil
level frequently. A rising oil level could indicate the accumulation of
water in the bottom of the oil tank. Water in the bottom of the tank can
lead to engine damage and must be drained.
Water accumulation increases as outside temperature decreases.
The cold weather kit not only reduces moisture accumulation, but the
heater will provide quicker warm-ups and easier starting.
See your dealer for more information on cold weather operation and if
the heater kit will enhance your cold weather operation.
