natural_image
Silhouette of two keys with a ring, no text or symbols presentAny modifications or installation of non-POLARIS-approved accessories could increase the risk of injury. While you may find aftermarket products similar in design and quality to POLARIS accessories, recognize that some aftermarket accessories or modifications are not suitable because of potential safety hazards to you or others. It is never appropriate to install any additional seating.
Check with the manufacturer to determine any potential effect of a modification or accessory on the safe use of your vehicle. You are responsible for injuries related to modifications to the vehicle. Modifications or accessories may:
- Damage machine components - especially modifications that increase speed or power.
- Make the vehicle less stable at higher speeds.
- Add weight, reducing the amount of cargo and total weight you can carry, and raise the vehicle's center of gravity.
- Overload the vehicle's electrical system capacity. Blowing a fuse may cause a loss of lights or engine power.
- Reduce the effectiveness of occupant protection systems, including the seatbelts and the Rollover Protective Structure (ROPS).
- Make it illegal to own or operate your vehicle. POLARIS-authorized spark arresters, mufflers, and emissions control components are mandatory for ownership or operation in many areas.
- Void your warranty.
The vehicle ROPS, when used with the seat belts and doors, provides structure to help protect occupants. The structure will not protect occupants in all rollovers or accidents.
DRIVER AND PASSENGER QUALIFICATIONS
Make sure operators are 16 or older with a valid
driver's license. Just because a teenager has a license does not mean that they will make good judgments about driving and avoid risk taking.

16+POLARIS recommends that you supervise younger drivers. Set rules and put limits on how, when, and where they are allowed to use this vehicle. For example, young drivers may need to have an adult in the vehicle with them and not be allowed to drive with their friends in the vehicle.
Make sure all riders fit the vehicle. Be sure that the driver and all passenger are able to:
- sit with their backs against their seat,
- adjust the seat belt to fit properly,
• have both feet flat on the floor, and
• have both hands on the steering wheel or on a passenger hand hold.
Do not allow children who need child safety seats or booster seats in the vehicle. The vehicle is not designed to restrain automotive child safety seats.
You are responsible for your passengers. Be sure passengers are seated properly, belted, holding the passenger hand hold, and ready to brace.
Unrestrained riders can fall out or be thrown around and from a moving vehicle.
Every person must be properly seated and belted in their own seat. people should never be belted into a single seat belt. People belted together can crash into one another in a collision and be seriously injured. Never carry passengers in the cargo bed as they could be thrown against or out of the vehicle or come into contact with moving parts.
Do not let people drive or ride after using alcohol or drugs.
PREPARE VEHICLE FOR THE RIDE

PREPARE YOURSELF, PASSENGERS, AND CARGO FOR THE RIDE
Wear an approved helmet. Riding in this vehicle without wearing an approved helmet increases the risk of serious injury. For example, a helmet reduces your risk of injury from head strikes with the vehicle or other objects even if there is no crash.
Approved helmets in the USA and Canada bear a U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) label. Approved helmets in Europe, Asia, and Oceania bear the ECE 22.05 label. The ECE mark consists of a circle surrounding the letter E, followed by the distinguishing number of the country which has granted approval. The approval number and serial number will also be displayed on the label.

POLARIS recommends wearing approved Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) that have markings indicating they are designed to standards such as:
natural_image
Simple line drawing of a pair of goggles (no text or symbols)Additional protective clothing and gear that may be appropriate for your riding conditions includes:
- Always wear shoes when operating. Consider wearing sturdy over-the-ankle boots suitable for the terrain you will be riding in.
- Full-finger gloves can protect against wind, sun, cold, and objects. Choose gloves that fit snugly and allow fingers to move freely and grip on the steering wheel or hand holds.
- Consider long sleeves and long pants to help protect arms and legs.
- Long-term exposure to wind and engine noise can cause permanent hearing loss. Properly worn hearing protective devices such as earplugs can help prevent hearing loss. Check local laws or the rules of the riding area you are in before wearing hearing protection to make sure its use is permitted.
Always stay completely inside the vehicle and hold the steering with hand holds. Body parts outside of the vehicle can be struck by passing objects or crushed during a rollover. Do not put any part of your body outside of the vehicle for any reason. Do not hold onto the ROPS frame or put any part of your body on the door.
Riding in this vehicle without closed and latched cab doors increases the risk of serious injury or death in the event of an accident or rollover. Always make sure all cab doors are closed and latched while riding in this vehicle.
Be sure riders pay attention and plan ahead. If you think or feel the vel may tip or roll, reduce your risk of injury:
- Keep a firm grip on the steering wheel or hand holds and brace yourself.
- Do not put any part of your body outside of the vehicle for any reason.
This vehicle is not designed to carry unrestrained pets. An unrestrain can be thrown about and injure riders, even during normal operation. When transporting pets, use a pet crate suitable for off-road use that is secured to the vehicle.
Fuels such as gasoline can be extremely flammable. To reduce the risk serious injury or death, never carry fuel or other flammable liquids on this vehicle. Rollovers, crashes, rough riding, or changes in elevation or temperature may lead to fuel spilling or vapor release from portable containers. Hot vehicle parts can cause fires, even after the engine has been turned off.
Never exceed vehicle weight capacities. Overloading the vehicle or carrying cargo improperly will cause changes in stability and handling, which could cause loss of control or an accident. See the Specifications chapter for weight capacities.
Secure cargo in the cargo box as far forward, centered and as is possible. When cargo cannot be positioned and secured in this way, operate with extra caution. Unsecured cargo can strike and injure riders, affect vehicle handling, and result in loss of control.
The weight of riders and cargo changes vehicle braking, handling, stability. To avoid loss of control, turn gradually, operate at slower speeds, and avoid rougher or steeper terrain.
DRIVING GUIDELINES
Drive Responsibly. This vehicle has higher ground clearance and other features to handle rugged terrain. It can be overturned in situations where some other vehicles may not. Abrupt maneuvers or aggressive driving, even on flat, open areas, can cause loss of control, rollovers, severe injury or death. To avoid loss of control and rollovers:

natural_image
Black and white icon of a car steering wheel (no text or symbols)- Avoid abrupt maneuvers, sideways sliding, skidding, or fishtailing, and never do donuts.
- Slow down before entering turn.
- Avoid hard acceleration when turning, even from a stop.
High speed off-road operation
Driving off-road vehicles to test the limits of your skills or abilities can be very dangerous to you, passengers, and bystanders. Basic skills for driving a car, ATV, or other off-road vehicles do not equip drivers to safely attempt high speed off-road operation. Develop your skill gradually through training, practice, and experience with the various driving modes of this vehicle and the terrain in which you are operating. Always do a low speed reconnaissance run (prerun) to become aware of anything you may encounter.
High speed off-road operation can lead to loss of control, crashes, or hard landings that can seriously injure occupants (even without rolling the vehicle or damaging it).
If you plan on using the vehicle for high speed, off-road competition, additional safety equipment may be necessary. Check the rules that apply to your competition.
Do not go over jumps — going airborne can lead to serious injury
Going airborne can cause loss of control, rollovers, or crashing into the ground and may damage the vehicle. Even without crashing, landings can be hard enough to cause any vehicle suspension to fully compress (e.g., bottom out). Serious injuries, including spinal injuries, can occur even if riders are properly harnessed, wearing helmets and the vehicle is not damaged and remains upright.
You may encounter slopes, "jumps", or other terrain features that could send the vehicle airborne, depending on your speed. These may be defectively designed, poorly maintained, or not suitable for this vehicle. Slow down, use extra care, and avoid going airborne. Never take this vehicle over jumps.
Watching someone else go over a jump or go airborne does not mean you can safely do so. Polaris cannot determine whether any jump you may encounter is appropriate for this vehicle. Any jump, even a small one, could be poorly maintained, designed, or not suitable for this vehicle and may cause serious injury or death.

natural_image
Black-and-white ink sketch of a mountainous landscape with winding rivers and trees (no text or symbols)Plan for hills, rough terrain, ruts, and other changes in traction and Proceed slowly and with extra care on unfamiliar terrain. Avoid paved surfaces. Sudden changes in terrain such as holes, depressions, banks, softer or harder ground, or other irregularities may cause loss of control or rollover. Give yourself time to react to rocks, bumps, or holes that may be hard to see. Operating in deep snow or tall grass may make it harder to see obstacles.
If you cannot go around an obstacle, such as a fallen tree or a ditch, stop the vehicle in a safe place. Get out to inspect the area thoroughly. Look from both your approach side and exit side. If you are reasonably confident you can continue safely, choose the path that will allow you to go straight over the obstacle to minimize the vehicle tipping sideways. Go only fast enough to maintain your momentum, but still give yourself plenty of time to react to changes in conditions. If there is any question about your ability to maneuver safely over the obstacle, you should turn around if the ground is flat and you have the room, or back up until you find a less difficult path.
Abrupt application of the accelerator pedal can cause the tires to lose traction, reducing control of the vehicle and increasing the possibility of an accident, especially while on sloped terrain or while crossing obstacles such as rocks or logs.
Avoid Operating on Public Roads (Paved or Otherwise). This vehicle can not have highway safety features that on-road vehicles may have (air bags, anti-lock brakes, stability control, etc.). If another vehicle collides with you, the likelihood of a serious injury or death may be greater. Also, you may not be able to avoid a crash or rollover if you make sudden or abrupt maneuvers such as swerving or emergency braking.
While it may be legal locally to drive on some public roads in specific parts of the country, your vehicle was not designed or certified as an on-road motor vehicle. Polaris does not support public road use except as may be necessary to cross roads designated for connecting off highway vehicle trail segments. If you must drive on-road, drive slowly and defensively. Your vehicle may lack the features needed to comply with state or local laws that permit limited public road use. Modifications you make to your vehicle to meet these requirements may void the vehicle warranty. In addition, refer to tire manufacturer's instructions or limitations for on-road operation, including speed limits and premature tire wear.
Improperly operating on hills can cause loss of control, rollover, or accident, which can lead to serious injury or death. Use extra care when operating on hills. Plan for rough terrain, ruts, and other changes in traction and terrain.
Driving up hills
Check the terrain before ascending a hill and make sure it is not too slippery or loose. Engage all-wheel drive for hills. Drive straight uphill, keeping speed and throttle steady. Avoid steep hills which can cause the vehicle to overturn.
Recovering from stalling on a hill
If the vehicle loses forward speed, apply the brakes gradually and stop. Do not attempt to turn the vehicle around. Instead, shift to reverse and allow the vehicle to slowly roll straight downhill. Apply light brake pressure to control speed.
Overtopping a hill
Slow down when you reach the crest of a hill. Never blindly go over the crest of a hill or a drop off at high speed. An obstacle, a sharp drop, or another vehicle or person could be on the other side of the hill.
Driving down hills
Check the terrain before descending a hill and make sure it is not too slippery or loose. Engage all-wheel drive and proceed slowly, applying the brakes lightly. Never descend a hill with the transmission in neutral or if the engine is turned off.
Avoid side hilling (riding across slopes)
If unavoidable, proceed slowly and with extra caution. Avoid obstacles and changes in terrain that could cause the vehicle to tip or slide. If it feels like the vehicle begins to tip or slide, immediately turn downhill.
Riding near wooded areas or brush
Use extra caution when operating near trees, particularly when operating on narrow trails. Tree branches or brush can be driven into the cab striking or stabbing occupants.

natural_image
Black-and-white ink sketch of a mountainous landscape with winding rivers and sparse trees (no text or symbols)Riding in snow
Always keep the brake and accelerator pedals free of snow and ice. Apply the brakes frequently to prevent ice or snow accumulation on the brake pads which can reduce brake performance.
Riding on ice
Never operate the vehicle on a frozen body of water unless you have verified that the ice can support the weight of the vehicle. Severe injury or death can result if the vehicle falls through the ice.
Riding in water / Falling into water
Operating through deep or fast-flowing water can cause loss of traction, loss of control, overturning, or being swept away in water. You can be seriously injured or killed from entrapment and drowning. Never operate the vehicle in fast-flowing water or in water that exceeds the floor level of the vehicle. Avoid sharp drop-offs and large rocks. Choose a path that provides an entrance and exit point with gradual inclines. Wet brakes may have reduced stopping ability. After leaving water, test the brakes. Apply them lightly several times while driving slowly. The friction will help dry out the pads.
Riding on sand dunes
Use extra caution when operating on or near dunes. Be alert for changes in terrain. Never blindly go over the crest of a hill or a drop-off at high speed. An obstacle, a sharp drop, or another vehicle or a person could be on the other side of the hill.
Riding in low-visibility conditions
Use extra caution and drive slowly in conditions of reduced visibility such as fog, rain, and darkness.
Plan ahead to avoid the need for evasive maneuvers, such as sw
Hitting an obstacle — including wildlife — you are not ready for can be dangerous. Choosing to swerve instead can be even more dangerous because it can lead to loss of control, rollover, or collisions.
When operating in areas with possibility of wildlife appearing in your path, plan ahead to avoid swerving for animals if doing so could result in collisions or rollovers. Go slowly or avoid driving during seasons or times of day when animals such as deer are more likely to cross your path without warning.
Avoid Collisions With Other Vehicles
When following another vehicle or operating in the same area as others, keep a safe distance to avoid collisions. Allow extra space when sight distances are limited by dust, snow, curves, hills, or other conditions. Plan ahead to avoid having to swerve or leave the trail to avoid a collision.
On trails, be prepared to make space for other vehicles to pass. If you need to stop on a trail, move your vehicle to the edge of the path to allow others to pass safely.

OPERATION
IMPORTANT INFORMATION

WARNING
Failure to operate the vehicle properly can result in a collision, loss of control accident or rollover, which may result in serious injury or death. Read and understand all safety warnings outlined in the safety section of this owner's manual.
VEHICLE BREAK-IN PERIOD
The break-in period for your new POLARIS vehicle is the first 25 hours of operation, or the time it takes to use the first two tanks full of gasoline. Clutch and drive belt break-in periods vary depending on operating conditions.
No single action on your part is as important as a proper break-in period. Careful treatment of a new engine and drive components will result in more efficient performance and longer life for these components. Perform the following procedures carefully.
NOTICE
Excessive heat build-up during the first three hours of operation will damage close-fitted engine parts and drive components. Do not operate at full throttle or high speeds during the first three hours of use.
Use of any improper oils may cause serious engine damage. POLARIS Premium 4 Synthetic Oil is specifically formulated for your 4-cycle engine
ENGINE AND DRIVETRAIN BREAK-IN
- Fill the fuel tank with the recommended fuel. See page . Always exercise extreme caution whenever handling gasoline.
- Check the oil level. See the Oil Check section for details. Add the recommended oil as needed to maintain the oil level in the safe operating range.
- Complete the New Operator Driving Procedures outlined on page 83.
- Avoid aggressive use of the brakes.
- Vary throttle positions. Do not operate at sustained idle.
- Perform regular checks on fluid levels, controls and areas outlined on the daily pre-ride inspection checklist. See the Pre-Ride Inspection section for details.
-
Carry only light loads.
-
During the break-in period, change both the oil and the filter at 25 hours or one month.
- Check fluid levels of transmission and all gearcases after the first 25 hours of operation and every 100 hours thereafter.
Apply only moderate braking force for the first 50 stops. Aggressive or overly forceful braking when the brake system is new could damage brake pads and rotors.
PVT BREAK-IN (CLUTCHES / BELT)
A proper break-in of the clutches and drive belt will ensure a longer life and better performance. If a belt fails, always clean any debris from the duct and from the engine compartment.
STANDARD BREAK-IN
Drive at slower speeds for the first 50 miles (80 km) of operation. Carry only light loads. Avoid aggressive acceleration, high-speed operation and prolonged operation at a specific RPM during this period.
SAND / DUNE / MUD BREAK-IN
Drive in low gear for the first 5 miles (8 km) of operation. Avoid prolonged low speed operation at high throttle. Avoid aggressive acceleration, high-speed operation and prolonged operation at a specific RPM during this period.
PRE-RIDE INSPECTION
Failure to inspect and verify that the vehicle is in safe operating condition before operating increases the risk of an accident. Always inspect the vehicle before each use to make sure it's in safe operating condition.

DRIVING UPHILL

natural_image
Technical line drawing of a vehicle chassis with driver and wheelbars, no text or symbols presentWhenever traveling uphill, follow these precautions:
- Always check the terrain carefully before ascending a hill. Never drive on hills with excessively slippery or loose surfaces.
- Avoid excessively steep hills. If ascending a steeper grade is unavoidable, engage all-wheel drive before ascending.
- Drive straight uphill.
- Proceed at a steady rate of speed and throttle opening. Never open the throttle suddenly.
- Avoid unnecessary changes in speed or direction.
- Never go over the crest of a hill at high speed. An obstacle, a sharp drop, or another vehicle or person could be on the other side of the hill.
- If the vehicle stalls while climbing a hill, apply the brakes. Place the transmission in reverse and slowly allow the vehicle to roll straight downhill while applying light brake pressure to control speed.
Driving on a sidehill is not recommended. Improper procedure could cause loss of control or rollover. Avoid crossing the side of any hill unless absolutely necessary.
If crossing a hill is unavoidable, follow these precautions:
- Engage all-wheel drive.
- Never operate in TURF mode (if equipped) while operating on a hill or other irregular terrain. Always move the AWD switch to AWD before ascending or descending a hill.
- Drive slowly and use extreme caution.
- If the vehicle begins to roll over, or if it feels as if it may roll over, immediately turn downhill.
- Avoid obstacles and changes in terrain that may lower or raise one side of the vehicle or cause the vehicle to slide.
- If the vehicle begins to slide downhill, immediately turn downhill to stop the slide, or stop the vehicle and maneuver slowly and carefully until the vehicle can be driven straight downhill.
DRIVING DOWNHILL

natural_image
Technical line drawing of a vehicle chassis on an inclined track (no text or symbols)Whenever descending a hill, follow these precautions:
- Avoid excessively steep hills.
- Slow down. Never travel down a hill at high speed.
- Always check the terrain carefully before descending a hill. Never drive on hills with excessively slippery or loose surfaces.
- Always descend a hill with the transmission in forward gear. Never descend a hill with the transmission in neutral.
- Avoid traveling down a hill at an angle, which would cause the vehicle to lean sharply to one side. Travel straight downhill.
- Apply the brakes lightly to aid in slowing.
DRIVING THROUGH WATER
Your vehicle can operate through water with a maximum recommended depth equal to floor level. Follow these precautions when operating through water:
- Determine the water depth and current before entering the water.
- Choose a crossing where the water level is lowest and where both banks have gradual inclines. Never operate in water that exceeds the maximum recommended depth (floor level)①.

natural_image

WARNING
The large tires on your vehicle may cause the vehicle to float in deep or fast-flowing water, which could result in loss of traction, loss of control, rollover or accident.
- Wet brakes may have reduced stopping ability. After leaving water, test the brakes. Apply them lightly several times while driving slowly. The friction will help dry out the pads. Avoid applying brake and throttle at the same time.
NOTICE
Major engine damage can result if the vehicle is not thoroughly inspected after operation in water. Perform the services outlined in the maintenance chart section. Give special attention to engine oil, transmission oil, demand drive fluid, rear gearcase oil, and all grease fittings.
If your vehicle becomes immersed or is operated in water that exceeds the floor level, service is required before starting the engine. Your POLARIS dealer or qualified person can provide this service. If it's impossible to bring the vehicle in before starting the engine, perform the service outlined in the Vehicle Immersion section, and take the vehicle in for service at the first opportunity.
DRIVING ON SLIPPERY SURFACES
When driving on slippery surfaces such as wet trails, loose gravel, or ice, be alert for the possibility of skidding and sliding.
Follow these precautions when encountering slippery conditions:
- Slow down before entering slippery areas.
- Maintain a high level of alertness, reading the trail and avoiding quick, sharp turns, which can cause skids.
- Engage all-wheel drive before wheels begin to lose traction.
NOTICE
Severe damage to the drive train may occur if the AWD is engaged while the wheels are spinning. Always allow the wheels to stop spinning before engaging AWD.
- Correct a skid by turning the steering wheel in the direction of the skid. Never apply the brakes during a skid.

- Apply the brakes.
- Place the transmission in PARK.
- Stop the engine.
- Slowly release the brake pedal and make sure the transmission is in PARK before exiting the vehicle.
- Block the rear wheels on the downhill side.
HAULING CARGO
WARNING
Overloading the vehicle or carrying cargo improperly can alter vehicle handling and may cause loss of control or brake instability. Always follow these precautions when hauling cargo:
Never exceed the stated load capacity for this vehicle.
REDUCE SPEED AND ALLOW GREATER DISTANCES FOR BRAKING WHEN HAULING CARGO.
NEVER EXCEED THE MAXIMUM WEIGHT CAPACITY of the vehicle. When determining the weight you are adding to the vehicle, include the weight of the operator, passengers, accessories and loads in the rack or box. The combined weight of these items must not exceed the maximum weight capacity.
Always load the cargo box with the load as far forward and as low as possible.
When operating over rough or hilly terrain, reduce speed and cargo to maintain stable driving conditions.
Always operate the vehicle with extreme care when hauling cargo. Slow down and drive in the lowest gear available.

WARNING
SECURE ALL LOADS BEFORE OPERATING. Unsecured loads can create unstable operating conditions, which could result in loss of control of the vehicle.
OPERATE ONLY WITH STABLE AND SAFELY ARRANGED LOADS. When handling off-centered loads that cannot be centered, securely fasten the load and operate with extra caution.
HEAVY LOADS CAN CAUSE BRAKING AND CONTROL PROBLEMS. Use extreme caution when applying brakes with a loaded vehicle. Avoid terrain or situations that may require backing downhill.
USE EXTREME CAUTION when operating with loads that extend over the rack sides. Stability and maneuverability may be adversely affected, causing a rollover.
DO NOT TRAVEL FASTER THAN THE RECOMMENDED SPEEDS. Vehicle should never exceed 10 mph (16 km/h) while cornering or while ascending or descending a hill.
Carrying a passenger in the cargo box could result in a fall from the vehicle or contact with moving components. Never allow a passenger to ride in the cargo box. A passenger must always be seated in a passenger seat with seat belt secured.

text_image
Prohibition sign with crossed-out car and vehicle, symbolizing no-prohibition or prohibition in transportation.Your POLARIS vehicle has been designed to carry a specific capacity. Reduce speed and allow a greater distance for braking when carrying cargo.
Loads should be centered and carried as low as possible in the box. For stability on rough or hilly terrain, reduce both speed and cargo. Exercise caution if the cargo load extends over the side of the box.
Always read and understand the load distribution warnings listed on warning labels and in this manual. Never exceed the maximum capacities specified for your vehicle. See the Load / Passenger / Tire Warning section for details.
BELT LIFE
To extend belt life, use low gear in the following conditions:
- when hauling or towing heavy cargo.
- when consistently operating at speeds less than 35 mph (56 km/h) in hard-pulling terrain, such as mud, rocks or sand/dune environments.
TOWING A RZR
Towing this vehicle is not recommended. Always transport the vehicle on a trailer or flatbed with all four wheels off the ground. See the Transporting the Vehicle section for details.
If towing a disabled vehicle is unavoidable, place the disabled vehicle's transmission in neutral. Tow the shortest distance possible. Do not operate faster than 10 mph (16 km/h).
TOWING LOADS
WARNING
Towing improperly can alter vehicle handling and may cause loss of control or brake instability.
Always follow these precautions when towing:
- Never load more than 150 lb (68.1 kg) tongue weight on the towing bracket.
- When transporting heavy loads and/or when towing, always operate the vehicle in low gear.
- Do not operate the vehicle faster than 10 mph (16 km/h) when towing. See the Hauling Cargo section. Towing a trailer increases braking distance.
- Do not tow more than the recommended weight for the vehicle. See the Specifications chapter for this vehicle's maximum weight capacity.
- Attach a trailer to the trailer hitch bracket only. Do not attach a trailer to any other location or you may lose control of the vehicle.
- Never tow a trailer on a grade steeper than 15^ .
| TOTAL TOWED LOAD WEIGHT (LEVEL GROUND) | TOTAL TOWED LOAD WEIGHT (15° GRADE) | TOTAL HITCH VERTICAL WEIGHT | MAXIMUM TOWING SPEED |
| 1,500 lb (681 kg) | 850 lb (386 kg) | 150 lb (68.1 kg) | 10 mph (16 km/h) |
WINCH GUIDE
WINCH SAFETY
These safety warnings and instructions apply if your vehicle came equipped with a winch or if you choose to add an accessory winch to your vehicle.
WARNING
Improper winch use can result in SEVERE INJURY or DEATH. Always follow all winch instructions and warnings in this manual.
Your winch may have a cable made of either wire rope or specially designed synthetic rope. The term “winch cable” will be used for either unless noted otherwise.
WINCH SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
- Read all sections of this manual.
- Never use alcohol or drugs before or while operating the winch.
- Never allow children under 16 years of age to operate the winch.
- Always wear eye protection and heavy gloves when operating the winch.
- Always keep body, hair, clothing and jewelry clear of the winch cable, fairlead and hook when operating winch.
- Never attempt to "jerk" a load attached to the winch with a moving vehicle. See the Shock Loading section on page 105.
- Always keep the area around the vehicle, winch, winch cable, and load clear of people (especially children) and distractions while operating the winch.
- Always turn the vehicle ignition power OFF when it and the winch are not being used.
- Always be sure that at least five (5) full turns of winch cable are wrapped around the winch drum at all times. The friction provided by this wrapped cable allows the drum to pull on the winch cable and move the load.
- Always apply your vehicle's park brake and/or park mechanism to hold the vehicle in place during winching. Use wheel chocks if needed.
-
Always align the vehicle and winch with the load directly in front of the vehicle as much as possible. Avoid winching with the winch cable at an angle to the winching vehicle's centerline whenever possible.
-
If winching at an angle is unavoidable, follow these precautions:
a. Look at the winch drum occasionally. Never let the winch cable "stack" or accumulate at one end of the winch drum. Too much winch cable at one end of the winch drum can damage the winch and the winch cable.
b. If stacking occurs, stop winching. Follow step 15 of Winch Operation to feed and rewind the cable evenly before continuing the winch operation.
-
Never winch up or down at sharp angles. This can destabilize the winching vehicle and possibly cause it to move without warning.
-
Never attempt to winch loads that weigh more than the winch's rated capacity.
-
The winch motor may become hot during winch use. If you winch for more than 45 seconds, or if the winch stalls during operation, stop winching and permit the winch to cool down for 10 minutes before using it again.
-
Never touch, push, pull or straddle the winch cable while winching a load.
-
Never let the winch cable run through your hands, even if wearing heavy gloves.
-
Never release the clutch on the winch when the winch cable is under load.
-
Never use the winch for lifting or transporting people.
-
Never use the winch to hoist or suspend a vertical load.

text_image
Prohibition sign with crossed-out hand and gear mechanism, indicating no protection or resistance- Always inspect your winch and winch cable before each use.
- Never winch the hook fully into the winch. This can cause damage to winch components.
- Unplug the remote control from the vehicle when the winch is not in use to prevent inadvertent activation and use by unauthorized persons.
- Never grease or oil the winch cable. This will cause the winch cable to collect debris that will shorten the life of the cable.
WINCH OPERATION
Read the Winch Safety Precautions in the preceding pages before using your winch.
TIP
Consider practicing the operation and use of your winch before you actually need to use it in the field.

WARNING
Improper winch use can result in SEVERE INJURY or DEATH. Always follow all winch instructions and warnings in this manual.
Each winching situation is unique.
• Take your time to think through the winching you are about to do.
• Proceed slowly and deliberately.
- Never hurry or rush during winching.
• Always pay attention to your surroundings.
- You may need to change your winching strategy if it is not working.
• Always remember that your winch is very powerful.
- There are simply some situations that you and your winch will not be able to deal with. Do not be afraid to ask others to help when this happens.
-
Always inspect the vehicle, winch, winch cable and winch controls for any signs of damage or parts in need of repair or replacement before each use. Pay particular attention to the first 3 feet (1 meter) of winch cable if the win is being used (or has been used) for lifting an accessory plow assembly. Promptly replace any worn or damaged cable.
-
Never operate a winch or a vehicle in need of repair or service.
-
Always apply your vehicle's park brake and/ or park mechanism to hold the vehicle in place during winching. Use wheel chocks if needed.
-
Always use the hook strap when handling the hook.

natural_image

WARNING
Never put your fingers into the hook. This could lead to SEVERE INJURY.
- Attach the hook itself onto the load or use a tow strap or chain to secure the load to the winch cable.

text_image
Prohibition sign with hand holding a syringe, crossed out by a red circle, indicating no smoking or disinfection.TIP
A "tow strap" is NOT intended to stretch. A "recovery strap" is designed to stretch.

WARNING
Never use a recovery strap when winching due to the excessive energy that can be released if the winch cable breaks. This can result in SEVERE INJURY or DEATH. See the Shock Loading section on page 105.
- Never hook the winch cable back onto itself. This will damage the winch cable and may result in winch cable failure.

WARNING
Replace the winch cable at the first sign of damage to prevent SEVERE INJURY or DEATH in the event of failure. For your safety, always replace POLARIS winch parts (including the cable) with genuine POLARIS replacement parts available at your authorized POLARIS dealer, or other qualified dealer.
- If possible, keep the winch cable aligned with the centerline of the winching vehicle. This will help the spooling of the winch cable and reduce the load on the fairlead.
- If freeing a stuck vehicle by attaching to a tree, use an item such as a tow strap to avoid damaging the tree during winch operation. Sharp cables and chains can damage and even kill trees. Please remember to Tread Lightly ^SM (treadlightly.org).
- Before operating the winch, be sure that the safety latch on the winch cable hook is fully seated when the load is attached.
- Never operate your winch with a damaged hook or latch. Always replace damaged parts before using the winch.

Prohibition sign with a red circle and a 3D object, indicating no prohibition or restriction.-
Never remove the hook strap from the hook.
-
Release the winch clutch and pull out the winch cable.
-
Pulling out as much cable as possible maximizes the winch's pulling capacity. Always be sure that at least five (5) full turns of winch cable are wrapped around the winch drum at all times. The friction provided by this wrapped cable allows the drum to pull on the winch cable and move the load.
-
Read and adhere to the following information for winch damping to ensure safe winch use.
a. In order to absorb energy that could be released by a winch cable failure, always place a "damper" on the winch cable. A damper can be heavy jacket, tarp, or other soft, dense object. A damper can absorb much of the energy released if a winch cable breaks when winching. Even a tree limb can help as a damper if no other items are available to you.
b. Lay the damper on top of the mid-point of the winch cable length that is spooled out.
c. On a long pull, it may be necessary to stop winching so that the damper can be repositioned to the new mid-point of the winch cable. Always release the tension on the winch cable before repositioning the damper.
d. Avoid being directly in line with the winch cable whenever possible. Also, never permit others to stand near or in line with the winch cable during winch operation.
-
Never hook the winch cable back onto itself. This will damage the winch cable and may result in winch cable failure.
-
Never use straps, chains or other rigging items that are damaged or worn.
-
The ONLY time a winch-equipped vehicle should be moving when using the winch is when that vehicle itself is stuck. The winch equipped vehicle should NEVER be in motion to "shock" load the winch cable in an attempt to move a second stuck vehicle. See the Shock Loading section on page 105. For your safety, always follow these guidelines when winching a vehicle free:
a. Release the winch clutch and spool out the necessary length of winch cable.
b. Align the winch cable as close as possible to the winching vehicle's centerline.
c. Attach the winch cable hook to the anchor point or the stuck vehicle's frame following instructions in this manual.
d. Re-engage the clutch on the winch.
e. Slowly winch in the slack in the winch cable.
f. Select the proper vehicle gear to propel the stuck vehicle in the direction of winching.
g. Shift to the lowest gear available on the stuck vehicle.
h. Slowly and carefully apply vehicle throttle and winch together to free the vehicle.
i. Stop winching as soon as the stuck vehicle is able to propel itself without the help of the winch.
j. Detach the winch cable hook.
k. Rewind the winch cable evenly back onto the winch drum following the instructions in this manual.
-
Never attempt to winch another stuck vehicle by attaching the winch cable to a suspension component, brush guard, bumper or cargo rack. Vehicle damage may result. Instead, attach the winch to a strong portion of the vehicle frame or hitch.
-
Extensive winching will run down the battery on the winching vehicle. Let the winching vehicle's engine run while operating the winch to prevent the battery from running low if winching for long periods.
- The winch motor may become hot during winch use. If you winch for more than 45 seconds, or if the winch stalls during operation, stop winching and permit the winch to cool down for 10 minutes before using it again.
- After winching is complete, especially if winching at an angle, it may be necessary to re-distribute the winch cable across the winch drum. You will need an assistant to perform this task.
a. Release the clutch on the winch.
b. Feed out the winch cable that is unevenly bunched up in one area.
c. Re-engage the winch clutch.
d. Have an assistant pull the winch cable tightly with about 100 lbs. (45 kg) of tension using the hook strap.
e. Slowly winch the cable in while your assistant moves the end of the winch cable back and forth horizontally to evenly distribute the winch cable on the drum.
f. Doing this reduces the chances of the winch cable “wedging” itself between lower layers of winch cable.
WINCH CABLE CARE
WARNING
Use of worn or damaged cable could lead to sudden failure and SEVERE INJURY.
For your safety, always replace POLARIS winch parts (including the cable) with genuine POLARIS replacement parts available at your authorized POLARIS dealer, or other qualified person.
-
Always inspect your winch before each use. Inspect for worn or loose parts including mounting hardware. Never use the winch if any part needs repair or replacement.
-
Always inspect your winch cable before each use. Inspect for worn or kinked winch cable.
A kinked winch cable made of wire rope is shown at right. Even after being "straightened out," this cable has already been permanently and severely damaged. Promptly discontinue use of a winch cable in this condition.

natural_image
Simple line drawing of a rope knot with no text or symbolsA kinked winch cable made of wire rope that has been “straightened out” is shown at right. Even though it may look usable, the cable has been permanently and severely damaged. It can no longer transmit the load that it could prior to kinking. Promptly discontinue use of a winch cable in this condition.

natural_image
Simple line drawing of a zigzag pattern with no text or symbolsA winch cable made of synthetic rope should be inspected for signs of fraying. Replace the cable if fraying is observed (shown below). Promptly discontinue use of a winch cable in this condition. Also replace the winch cable if there are fused or melted fibers. Such an area of the synthetic rope will be stiff and appear smooth or glazed. Promptly discontinue use of a winch cable in this condition.

natural_image
Close-up of a twisted cable or wire with visible grain and fracture (no text or symbols)SHOCK LOADING
WARNING
Your winch cable is very strong but it is NOT designed for dynamic, or "shock" loading. Shock loading may tension a winch cable beyond its strength and cause the cable to break. The end of a broken winch cable under such high loading can cause SEVERE INJURY or DEATH to you and other bystanders
Winch cables are designed to NOT absorb energy. This is true of both wire-rope and synthetic-rope winch cables.
- Never attempt to "jerk" a load with the winch. For example, never take up slack in the winch cable by moving the winching vehicle in an attempt to move an object. This is a dangerous practice. It generates high winch cable loads that may exceed the strength of the cable. Even a slowly moving vehicle can create large shock loads in a winch cable.
WARNING
SEVERE INJURY or DEATH can result from a broken winch cable.
- Never quickly turn the winch ON and OFF repeatedly ("jogging"). This puts extra load on the winch, winch cable, and generates excessive heat from the motor. This is a form of shock loading.
- Never tow a vehicle or other object with your winch. Towing an object with a winch produces shock loading of the cable even when towing at slow speeds. Towing from a winch also positions the towing force high on the vehicle. This can cause instability of the vehicle and possibly lead to an accident.
- Never use recovery straps with your winch. Recovery straps are designed to stretch and can store energy. This stored energy in the recovery strap is released if a winch cable fails making the event even more hazardous. Similarly, never use elastic "bungie" cords for winching.
- Never use the winch to tie down a vehicle to a trailer or other transportation vehicle. This type of use also causes shock loading that can cause damage to the winch, winch cable, or vehicles used.
Your winch cable is designed and tested to withstand the loads p by the winch motor when operated from a stationary vehicle. Alwa remember that the winch and winch cable are NOT designed for s loading.
WINCH MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE SAFETY
WARNING
Improper or lack of winch maintenance and service could lead to SEVERE INJURY or DEATH. Always follow all winch instructions and warnings in this manual.
- Always inspect your winch before each use. Inspect for worn or kinked winch cable. Also inspect for worn or loose parts including mounting hardware.
- Permit your winch motor to cool down prior to servicing your winch.
- Never work on your winch without first disconnecting the battery connections to prevent accidental activation of the winch.
- For your safety, always replace POLARIS winch parts (including the cable) with genuine POLARIS replacement parts available at your authorized POLARIS dealer, or other qualified person.
- Some winch models use wire rope as the winch cable. Other winches use a specially designed synthetic rope as the winch cable.
- Never replace a synthetic-rope winch cable with a consumer-grade polymer rope such as can be purchased in a hardware store. Although they may look similar, they are NOT alike. A polymer rope not designed for winch use will stretch and store excessive energy when winching.
WARNING
Failure of a stretched rope under winching conditions will release all of the stored energy. This will increase the chances of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH.
Do not modify the engine, intake or exhaust components, as doing so may affect compliance with U.S.A. EPA noise control requirements (40 CFR 205) and local noise level requirements.
OPERATION ON PUBLIC LANDS IN THE U.S.

MAINTENANCE
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE CHART
Careful periodic maintenance will help keep your vehicle in the safest, most reliable condition. Inspection, adjustment and lubrication of important components are explained in the periodic maintenance chart.
Inspect, clean, lubricate, adjust and replace parts as necessary. When inspection reveals the need for replacement parts, use genuine POLARIS parts available from your POLARIS dealer.
Record maintenance and service in the Maintenance Log at the end of the manual.
Service and adjustments are important for proper vehicle operation. If you're not familiar with safe service and adjustment procedures, have a qualified dealer perform these operations.
Vehicles subjected to heavy or severe use patterns must be inspected and serviced more frequently.
SEVERE USE DEFINITION
- Frequent immersion in mud, water or sand
• Racing or race-style high RPM use - Prolonged low speed, heavy load operation
- Extended idle
- Frequent short trip operation in cold weather (engine frequently does not operate long enough to reach full operating temperature)
Pay special attention to the oil level. A rise in oil level during cold weather can indicate contaminants collecting in the oil sump or crankcase. Change oil immediately if the oil level begins to rise. Monitor the oil level, and if it continues to rise, discontinue use and determine the cause or see your authorized dealer.
MAINTENANCE INTERVALS
The maintenance interval charts outline required maintenance and inspection based on vehicle hours / miles. Each table states the number of hours / miles that service is required on the vehicle. Some items or components may need to be serviced more often due to severe use, such as operation in water or under severe loads. When the vehicle goes beyond 500 hours / 5000 miles (8000 km), return to the 25 hours / 250 miles (400 km) chart and start the interval process over.

MAINTENANCE
COOLING SYSTEM
The engine coolant level is maintained by the recovery system. The recovery system components are the overflow bottle, radiator vent fitting, radiator pressure cap and connecting hose.
As coolant operating temperature increases, the expanding (heated) excess coolant is forced out of the radiator, past the pressure cap, and into the overflow bottle. As engine coolant temperature decreases, the contracting (cooled) coolant is drawn back up from the tank, past the pressure cap, and into the radiator.
Some coolant level drop on new vehicles is normal as the system is purging itself of trapped air. Observe coolant levels and maintain as recommended by adding coolant to the overflow bottle.
ADDING OR CHANGING COOLANT
POLARIS recommends the use of POLARIS Antifreeze 50/50 Premix. This antifreeze is already premixed and ready to use. Do not dilute with water. See the Polaris Products section for the part numbers.
To ensure that the coolant maintains its ability to protect the engine, we recommend that the system be completely drained every five (5) years and fresh Antifreeze 50/50 Premix added.
Any time the cooling system has been drained for maintenance or repair, replace the coolant with fresh Antifreeze 50/50 Premix.
RADIATORS AND COOLING FAN
Always check and clean the screens and radiator fins at the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart section. Do not obstruct or deflect air flow through the radiators by installing unauthorized accessories in front of the radiators or behind the cooling fan. Interference with radiator air flow can lead to overheating and consequent engine damage.
Washing the vehicle with a high-pressure hose could damage radiator fins and impair a radiator's effectiveness. Using a high-pressure system is not recommended.
RADIATOR COOLANT LEVEL / CHANGING COOLANT
This procedure is required only if the cooling system has been drained for maintenance and/or repair. If the overflow bottle ^③ has run dry, the level in the radiator should also be inspected.
CAUTION
Escaping steam can cause burns. Never remove the pressure cap while the engine is warm or hot. Always allow the engine to cool before removing the pressure cap.
- Remove the hood. See the Hood section for details.
- Slowly remove the radiator pressure cap ②.
- View the coolant level through the opening.
- Use a funnel and slowly add coolant as needed.
- Before reinstalling the pressure cap, bleed the system of trapped air. Remove the engine access panel behind the seats and use a flat-blade screwdriver to turn the bleed screw① slightly, allowing the air to escape. Slowly add additional coolant to the radiator until air no longer escapes and only coolant flows from the bleed hole, then tighten the bleed screw.
- Reinstall the pressure cap.

Use of a non-standard pressure cap will not allow the recovery system to function properly. See your dealer for the correct replacement part.
OVERFLOW BOTTLE COOLANT LEVEL
Always check and change the coolant at the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart section. Maintain the coolant level between the minimum and maximum marks on the bottle (when the fluid is cool). If the overflow bottle has run dry, the level in the radiator should also be inspected.
- Position the vehicle on a level surface.
-
Remove the hood. See the Hood section for details.

TIP
If coolant must be added often, or if the overflow bottle runs completely dry, there may be a leak in the system. Have the cooling system inspected by your POLARIS dealer or authorized person.
POLARIS VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (PVT) SYSTEM
WARNING
Failure to comply with the instructions in this warning can result in severe injury or death.
Do not modify any component of the PVT system. Doing so may reduce its strength so that a failure may occur at a high speed. The PVT system has been precision balanced. Any modification will cause the system to be out of balance, creating vibration and additional loads on components.
The PVT system rotates at high speeds, creating large amounts of force on clutch components. As the owner, you have the following responsibilities for your own safety and the safety of others:
- Always follow all recommended maintenance procedures. Always look for and remove debris inside and around the clutch and vent system when replacing the belt.
- See your dealer or other qualified service person as recommended in the owner's manual and on safety labels.
- This PVT system is intended for use on POLARIS products only. Do not install it in any other product.
• Always make sure the PVT housing is securely in place during operation.
Belt slip is responsible for creating excessive heat that destroys belts, wears clutch components and causes outer clutch covers to fail. Switch to low range while operating at slower speeds to extend the life of the PVT components (belt, cover, etc.).
BELT REPLACEMENT / DEBRIS REMOVAL
WARNING
Failure to remove ALL debris when replacing the belt could result in vehicle damage, loss of control and severe injury or death.
If a belt fails, always clean any debris from the duct and from the clutch and engine compartments when replacing the belt.

TIP
Belt slip is responsible for creating excessive heat that destroys belts, wears clutch components and causes outer clutch covers to fail. Switch to low range while operating at slower speeds to extend the life of the PVT components (belt, cover, etc.).
PVT DRYING
There may be some instances when water is accidentally ingested into the PVT system. Use the following instructions to dry it out before operating.
NOTICE
When washing the vehicle, always avoid spraying water directly toward the PVT intake duct. See the Washing the Vehicle section for details.
- Remove the clutch cover drain plug.
- Allow the water to drain. Reinstall the drain plug.
- Place the transmission in PARK. Apply the brakes.
- Start the engine.
- Apply varying throttle for 10-15 seconds to expel the moisture and air-dry the belt and clutches. Do not hold the throttle wide open for more than 10 seconds.
- Allow the engine RPM to settle to idle speed. Apply the brakes. Shift the transmission to the lowest available range.
- Test for belt slippage. If the belt slips, repeat the process.
- Your vehicle requires service as soon as possible. Your POLARIS dealer or authorized person can assist.

- Reinstall the air filter (if clean) or install a new air filter (if soiled). Do not attempt to clean the air filter.
NOTICE
Use of a non-POLARIS-approved air filter may cause engine damage. Always use a POLARIS-approved replacement filter. Please see your POLARIS dealer or authorized person.
- Make sure that there are no gaps between the filter and the driver's side of the air box.
- Reinstall the air box cover. Make sure the tabs are properly positioned into the hinge.
- Secure the two (2) cover straps.
- Reinstall the cargo box access panel.
SPARK ARRESTER
WARNING
Failure to heed the following warnings while servicing the spark arrester could result in serious injury or death.
- Do not perform clean-out immediately after the engine has been run, as the exhaust system becomes very hot. Serious burns could result from contact with the exhaust components. Allow components to cool sufficiently before proceeding.
- Wear eye protection and gloves.
- Never operate without the spark arrester.
- Never run the engine in an enclosed area. Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas that can cause loss of consciousness or death in a very short time.
Periodically clean the spark arrester to remove accumulated carbon. A plugged spark arrester will affect engine performance. Clean daily when driving in mud and water. Replace a cracked or damaged arrester before operating.
- Remove the arrester retaining bolt ① and nut ②.
-
Remove the arrester from the end of the muffler③.
-
Use a non-synthetic brush to clean the arrester screen ^④ . A synthetic brush may melt if components are warm. If necessary, blow debris from the screen with compressed air.

BRAKES
WARNING
Operating the vehicle with a spongy brake pedal can result in loss of braking which could cause an accident resulting in severe injury or death. Never operate the vehicle with a spongy-feeling brake pedal.
The front and rear brakes are hydraulic disc type brakes activated by the brake pedal.
CAUTION
Brake discs can become extremely hot after operation. Allow the discs to cool before performing maintenance to prevent risk of burns.
Always check brake pedal travel and the brake fluid reservoir level before each use of the vehicle. When applied, the brake pedal should feel firm. Any sponginess would indicate a possible fluid leak or low brake fluid level, which must be corrected before riding. See the Brake Fluid section for further details.
If you discover any irregularities in brake system operation, including excessive pedal travel, contact your dealer for proper diagnosis and repairs.
BRAKE INSPECTION
WARNING
Do not apply WD-40® or any petroleum product to brake discs. These types of products are flammable and may also reduce the friction between the brake pad and caliper.

natural_image
3D mechanical bracket component with mounting holes and a labeled part (1), no text or symbols present- Check the brake system for fluid leaks.
- Check the brake pedal for excessive travel or a spongy feel.
- Check the friction pads for wear, damage and looseness.
- Check brake discs for signs of cracks, excessive corrosion, warping or other damage. Clean any grease using an approved brake cleaner or alcohol.
- Inspect the brake disc spline and pad wear surface for excessive wear. Change pads ① when worn to 0.040 in (1.0 mm).
BRAKE FLUID
WARNING
After opening a bottle of brake fluid, always discard any unused portion. Never store or use a partial bottle. Brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it rapidly absorbs moisture from the air. The moisture causes the boiling temperature of the brake fluid to drop, which can lead to early brake fade and the possibility of accident or severe injury.
Inspect the level of the brake fluid before each operation. If the fluid level is low add DOT 4 brake fluid only. See the Polaris Products section for the part numbers.
Change the brake fluid every two years and any time the fluid becomes contaminated, the fluid level is below the minimum, or if the type and brand of the fluid in the reservoir are unknown. Access the brake fluid reservoir through the left front wheel well.

natural_image
Pixelated grayscale image of an indistinct object with no visible text or symbols- Position the vehicle on a level surface.
- Place the transmission in PARK.

BATTERY MAINTENANCE AND CHARGING
WARNING
An overheated battery may explode, causing severe injury or death. Always watch charging times carefully. Stop charging if the battery becomes very warm to the touch. Allow it to cool before resuming charging.
The sealed battery is already filled with electrolyte and has been sealed and fully charged at the factory. Never pry the sealing strip off or add any other fluid to this battery.
The single most important thing about maintaining a sealed battery is to keep it fully charged. Check the battery voltage with a voltmeter or multimeter. A fully charged battery will register 12.8 V or higher. If the voltage falls below 12.5V, charge it immediately, or the battery runs the risk of sulfation and reduced battery life.
If you do not drive the vehicle for more than TWO WEEKS, Polaris recommends using a BatteryMINDer® 2012 AGM - 2 AMP charger (PN 2830438), which can be ordered through your dealer.
Polaris provides a charging accessory ^① with your vehicle that allows easy connection to the battery through the 12V auxiliary outlet, located on the dash. During charging, place the charger outside of the vehicle and protect it from moisture.

Continue to maintain the battery with the BatteryMINDer® 2012 AGM - 2 AMP charger.
When using an automatic charger other than a BatteryMINDer® 2012-AGM - 2 AMP charger, refer to the charger manufacturer's instructions for recharging.
If using a constant current charger (instead of BatteryMINDer® 2012 AGM - 2 AMP charger), use the guidelines below. Always verify battery condition before and 1-2 hours after the end of charging.
| State of Charge | Voltage (DC) | Action | Charge Time* |
| 100% 12.8-13 | .0 volts None, check | monthly | None required |
| 75%-100% 12.6- | 12.8 volts May need slight charge, if no charge given, check in 2 weeks | 3-6 hours | |
| 50%-75% 12.3- | 12.6 volts Needs charge 5-11 hours | ||
| 25%-50% 12.0- | 12.3 volts Needs charge At least 13 hours | ||

CLEANING AND STORAGE
WASHING THE VEHICLE
Keeping your POLARIS vehicle clean will not only improve its appearance but it can also extend the life of various components.
NOTICE
Water in the PVT system could cause the drive belt to become wet and slip in the clutches. When washing the vehicle, always avoid spraying water directly toward the PVT intake duct①.
High water pressure may damage the radiator fins and impair the radiator's effectiveness. High pressure may also damage other vehicle components.
Certain products, including insect repellents and chemicals, will damage plastic surfaces. Do not allow these types of products to contact the vehicle.

natural_image
Technical diagram of a vehicle engine compartment with visible pipes and structural components (no text or symbols)The best and safest way to clean your POLARIS vehicle is with a garden hose and a pail of mild soap and water.
- Use a professional-type washing cloth, cleaning the upper body first and the lower parts last.
- Rinse with clean water frequently.
- Dry surfaces with a chamois to prevent water spots.
WASHING TIPS
- Avoid the use of harsh cleaners, which can damage the finish.
- Do not use a power washer to clean the vehicle.
- Do not use medium to heavy duty compounds on the finish.
- Always use clean cloths and pads for cleaning and polishing. Old or reused cloths and pads may contain dirt particles that will scratch the finish.
- Do not use high-speed polishers/buffers on body panels, as damage or color fading may occur.
If a high pressure water system is used for cleaning (not recommended), exercise extreme caution. The water may damage components and could remove paint and labels. Avoid directing the water stream at the following items:
- Wheel bearings
- Radiator
- Transmission seals
- Brakes
- Cab and body panels
- Labels and decals
• Electrical components and wiring
• Air intake components
If warning and safety labels are damaged, contact your POLARIS dealer for free replacement.
Grease all zerk fittings immediately after washing. Allow the engine to run for a while to evaporate any water that may have entered the engine or exhaust system.
POLISHING THE VEHICLE
POLARIS recommends the use of common household aerosol furniture polish for polishing the finish on your POLARIS vehicle. Follow the instructions on the container.
POLISHING TIPS
- Avoid the use of automotive products, some of which can scratch the finish of your vehicle.
- Always use clean cloths and pads for cleaning and polishing. Old or reused cloths and pads may contain dirt particles that will scratch the finish.
- Avoid the use of products containing a colorant dye. Test any products on an inconspicuous area of the vehicle before using throughout.
STORAGE TIPS
NOTICE
Starting the engine during the storage period will disturb the protective film created by fogging and damage could occur. Never start the engine during the storage period.
CLEAN THE EXTERIOR
Make any necessary repairs and clean the vehicle as recommended. See the Washing the Vehicle section for details.
STABILIZE THE FUEL
- Fill the fuel tank.
- Add POLARIS Carbon Clean Fuel Treatment or POLARIS Fuel Stabilizer or equivalent fuel treatments or stabilizers. Follow the instructions on the container for the recommended amount. Carbon Clean removes water from fuel systems, stabilizes fuel and removes carbon deposits from pistons, rings, valves and exhaust systems.
- Allow the engine to run for 15-20 minutes to allow the stabilizer to disperse through the entire fuel delivery system.
OIL AND FILTER
Change the oil and filter. See the Oil and Filter Change section for details.
AIR FILTER / AIR BOX
Replace the air filter. See the Air Filter section for details. Clean the air box.
FLUID LEVELS
Inspect the fluid levels. Add or change fluids as recommended in the Periodic Maintenance Chart.
- Demand drive fluid (front gearcase)
- Rear gearcase fluid (if equipped)
- Transmission fluid
- Brake fluid (change every two years and any time the fluid looks dark or contaminated)
- Coolant (test strength/fill)
INSPECT AND LUBRICATE
Inspect all cables and lubricate all areas of the vehicle as recommended in the Periodic Maintenance Chart.
FOG THE ENGINE
- Treat the fuel system with POLARIS Carbon Clean or other equivalent fuel treatment. Follow the instructions on the container. Start the engine. Allow it to idle for several minutes so the Carbon Clean reaches the injectors. Stop the engine.
- Remove the spark plugs and add 2-3 tablespoons of engine oil. To access the plug holes, use a section of clear 1/4 in (6.35 mm) hose and a small plastic squeeze bottle filled with the pre-measured amount of oil. Do this carefully! If you miss the plug holes, oil will drain from the spark plug cavities into the hole at the front of the cylinder head, and appear to be an oil leak.
- Reinstall the spark plugs. Torque to specification. See the Spark Plug Gap / Torque section for details.
- Apply dielectric grease to the inside of each spark plug cap. Do not reinstall the caps onto the plugs at this step.
- Turn the engine over several times. Oil will be forced in and around the piston rings and ring lands, coating the cylinder with a protective film of fresh oil.
- If POLARIS fuel system additive is not used, fuel tank, fuel lines, and injectors should be completely drained of gasoline.
- Reinstall the spark plug caps to the spark plugs.
BATTERY MAINTENANCE
See the Battery section for storage and charging procedures.
STORAGE AREA / COVERS
Be sure the storage area is well ventilated. Cover the vehicle with a genuine POLARIS cover. Do not use plastic or coated materials. They do not allow enough ventilation to prevent condensation, and may promote corrosion and oxidation.
REMOVAL FROM STORAGE

WARNING
Engine exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide and can cause loss of consciousness or death. Never run an engine in an enclosed area.
- Charge the battery if necessary.
- Make sure the spark plug is tight. Reinstall the fuse box cover if it was removed for storage.
-
Fill the fuel tank with fuel.
-
Check all the points listed in the Daily Pre-Ride Inspection section. Tightness of the bolts, nuts and other fasteners should be checked by an authorized POLARIS dealer or other qualified service facility.
- Lubricate at the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart section.
TRANSPORTING THE VEHICLE
Follow these procedures when transporting the vehicle.
- Place the transmission in PARK. Stop the engine.
- Slowly release the brake pedal and make sure the transmission is in PARK before exiting the vehicle
- Remove the key to prevent loss during transporting.
- Secure the fuel cap and seats. Ensure that the seats are attached correctly and are not loose.
WARNING
Cargo and other loose vehicle parts may fly off while transporting this vehicle. Secure or remove all cargo, and inspect the unit for loose parts prior to transport.
If transporting the vehicle in a non-enclosed trailer, then the vehicle must FACE FORWARD, or roof must be removed.
Failure to comply may allow airflow, vibration, or other factors to separate the roof from the vehicle and cause an accident, resulting in serious personal injury or death.
- Always tie the frame of the POLARIS vehicle to the transporting unit securely with suitable straps or rope. Do not attach tie straps to the front control arm bolt pockets.

U.S.A. EPA EMISSIONS LIMITED WARRANTY
This emissions limited warranty is in addition to the POLARIS standard limited warranty for your vehicle. POLARIS Industries Inc. warrants that at the time it is first purchased, this emissions-certified vehicle is designed, built and equipped so it conforms with applicable U.S. Environmental Protection Agency emission regulations. POLARIS warrants that the vehicle is free from defects in materials and workmanship that would cause it to fail to meet these regulations.
The warranty period for off road vehicles 100cc or greater emissions-certified vehicles starts on the date of purchase by original retail purchaser and continues for a period of 500 hours of engine operation, 3100 miles (5000 km) of vehicle travel, or 30 calendar months from the date of purchase, whichever comes first. The warranty period for ATVs less than 100cc emissions-certified vehicles starts on the date of purchase by original retail purchaser and continues for a period of 250 hours of engine operation, 1550 miles (2500 km) of vehicle travel, or 30 calendar months from the date of purchase, whichever comes first. This EPA emissions warranty period is extended for at least as long as the standard factory warranty that Polaris provides on the vehicle as a whole. The EPA emissions warranty period does not further extend if you purchase additional warranty coverage in the form of a service contract or other paid warranty extension, but emission-related parts may be covered subject to the terms of any such paid service contract or paid warranty extension.
This emissions limited warranty covers components whose failure increases the vehicle's regulated emissions, and it covers components of systems whose only purpose is to control emissions. Repairing or replacing other components not covered by this warranty is the responsibility of the vehicle owner. This emissions limited warranty does not cover components whose failure does not increase the vehicle's regulated emissions.
For exhaust emissions, emission-related components include any engine parts related to the following systems:
• Air-induction system
- Ignition system
- Fuel System
- Exhaust gas recirculation systems
The following parts are also considered emission-related components for exhaust emissions:
• After treatment devices
- Sensors
- Crankcase ventilation valves
• Electronic control units
The following parts are considered emission-related components for evaporative emissions:
- Fuel Tank
- Fuel Cap
- Fuel Line
- Fuel Line Fittings
- Clamps*
- Pressure Relief Valves*
- Control Valves*
- Control Solenoids*
• Electronic Controls
• Vacuum Control Diaphragms*
- Control Cables*
- Control Linkages*
- Purge Valves
- Vapor Hoses
- Liquid/Vapor Separator
- Carbon Canister
- Canister Mounting Brackets
• Carburetor Purge Port Connector
*As related to the evaporative emission control system.
Emission-related components also include any other part whose only purpose is to reduce emissions or whose failure will increase emissions without significantly degrading engine/equipment performance. The exclusive remedy for breach of this limited warranty shall be, at the exclusive option of POLARIS, repair or replacement of any defective materials, components or products. THE REMEDIES SET FORTH IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY ARE THE ONLY REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO ANY PERSON FOR BREACH OF THIS WARRANTY. POLARIS SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY TO ANY PERSON FOR INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES OF ANY DESCRIPTION, WHETHER ARISING OUT OF EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OR ANY OTHER CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE OR OTHER TORT OR OTHERWISE. THIS EXCLUSION OF CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, AND SPECIAL DAMAGES IS INDEPENDENT FROM AND SHALL SURVIVE ANY FINDING THAT THE EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE) ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD DESCRIBED HEREIN. POLARIS DISCLAIMS ALL EXPRESS WARRANTIES NOT STATED IN THIS WARRANTY. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply if it is inconsistent with the controlling state law.
This limited warranty excludes failures not caused by a defect in material or workmanship. This limited warranty does not cover damage due to accidents, abuse or improper handling, maintenance or use. This limited warranty also does not cover any engine that has been structurally altered, or when the vehicle has been used in racing competition. This limited warranty also does not cover physical damage, corrosion or defects caused by fire, explosions or other similar causes beyond the control of POLARIS.
Owners are responsible for performing the scheduled maintenance identified in the owner's manual. POLARIS may deny warranty claims for failures that have been caused by the owner's or operator's improper maintenance or use, by accidents for which POLARIS has no responsibility, or by acts of God.
Any qualified repair shop or person may maintain, replace, or repair the emission control devices or systems on your vehicle. An authorized POLARIS dealer can perform any service that may be necessary for your vehicle. POLARIS also recommends POLARIS parts, however equivalent parts may be used for such service. It is a potential violation of the Clean Air Act if a part supplied by an aftermarket parts manufacturer reduces the effectiveness of the vehicle's emission controls. Tampering with emission controls is prohibited by federal law.
CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS
Certain POLARIS Off-Road Vehicles are available in 49-state and 50-state versions. Only the 50-state models are certified for sale in California. The 50-state models available for sale in California are identified by the letter "B" in the ninth position of the model number (e.g., R16RTE87B). The POLARIS 50-state models are designed and built with features such as a reduced cargo box capacity. Any modifications to these features may be a violation of the applicable California regulations and may void this limited emissions warranty offered by the manufacturer.
POLARIS Inc. warrants that at the time it is first purchased, this vehicle is:
- Designed, built, and equipped so as to conform, at the time of sale, with all applicable California evaporative emissions regulations.
- Free from defects in materials and workmanship that may cause the failure of a warranted part as defined in California evaporative emissions regulations. All replacement parts must be identical in all material respects to that part as described in the OHRV manufacturer's Executive Order of Certification application.
The California evaporative emissions control system limited warranty statement below applies to your Off Highway Recreational Vehicle in California if the vehicle is equipped with an evaporative emission control system and is labeled with a Vehicle Evaporative Emissions Control Information label indicating that the vehicle conforms to California evaporative emissions regulations applicable to new off-road sport vehicles, all-terrain vehicles, or off-road utility vehicles. These vehicles are referred to as “OHRV-EVAP” below.
CALIFORNIA EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
The California Air Resources Board and Polaris Industries Inc. are pleased to explain the emission control system warranty on your model year 2018 and newer Off Highway Recreational Vehicle. In California, new off-highway recreational vehicles must be designed, built and equipped to meet the State's stringent anti-smog standards. Polaris must warrant the emission control system on your OHRV-EVAP for the periods of time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your OHRV-EVAP.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor or fuel injection system, fuel tank, fuel hoses, carbon canister, engine computer and Evaporative Emissions Control System parts listed in the U.S.A. EPA Emissions Limited Warranty. Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors and other emission-related assemblies. Where a warrantable condition exists, Polaris will repair your OHRV-EVAP at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY COVERAGE:
For model year 2018 and newer OHRV-EVAP models.
For 30 months, or 2500 miles (4023 km), or 250 hours, whichever comes first, except for evaporative components over the OHRV high-priced warranty value, which is covered for 60 months, or 5000 miles (8047 km), or 500 hours, whichever comes first.
If any emission-related part on your OHRV-EVAP is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by Polaris.
OWNER'S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:
As the OHRV-EVAP owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your owner's manual. Polaris recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your OHRV-EVAP, but Polaris cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of a scheduled maintenance.
As an owner you are responsible for presenting your OHRV-EVAP to a Polaris dealer as soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
As an OHRV-EVAP owner, you should also be aware that Polaris may deny you warranty coverage if your OHRV-EVAP or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
ADD-ON OR MODIFIED PARTS
An add-on or modified part must be compliant with applicable CARB emission control standards. A violation of this requirement is punishable by civil and/or criminal punishment.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact Polaris Customer Assistance at 1-800-POLARIS (1-800-765-2747) or the California Air Resources Board at 9528 Telstar Avenue, El Monte, CA 91731.
