Frequently Asked Questions - 120 XCR (2000) POLARIS

What type of fuel does the Polaris 120 XCR use?

The 120 XCR uses a mixture of unleaded gasoline and 2-stroke oil. Recommended ratio is 50:1 (gas:oil). Always use fresh fuel and high-quality oil designed for air-cooled engines.

How do I start the engine if the electric start fails?

The snowmobile is equipped with a recoil starter as backup. Pull the recoil handle firmly and steadily. Ensure the tether cord is attached and the kill switch is in the run position.

What is the recommended maintenance schedule?

After every 10 hours of use, check track tension, inspect belt, and clean air filter. Replace spark plug and chaincase oil annually. Before storage, stabilize fuel and lubricate all cables.

Why does the engine lose power or stall?

Common causes include stale fuel, clogged air filter, dirty spark plug, or incorrect carburetor adjustment. Check fuel mixture and replace spark plug if needed. Clean the air filter and inspect the fuel line.

How do I adjust the throttle limiter?

The throttle limiter screw is located on the handlebar. Turn clockwise to reduce maximum speed (useful for beginners) and counterclockwise to increase speed. Do not exceed factory settings.

What track tension is correct?

With the sled on a stand, the track should sag about 0.5 to 1 inch (1.3-2.5 cm) from the rear idler wheels when pushed down with moderate force. Adjust the rear axle bolts evenly.

Can I upgrade the 120 XCR for more speed?

The engine is governed for safety. Removing the governor or modifying the engine is not recommended as it can cause damage and pose safety risks. The snowmobile is designed for young riders.

How do I store the snowmobile for the summer?

Add fuel stabilizer, run the engine for 5 minutes, drain the tank or top off, remove the spark plug and add a teaspoon of oil, rotate the engine, then replace the plug. Lubricate all grease fittings and store in a dry place.

What safety gear is required?

A DOT-approved helmet, goggles, gloves, and warm clothing are essential. The snowmobile includes a tether cord that must be attached to the rider's clothing. Never remove or bypass safety features.

Where can I find replacement parts?

Original Polaris parts are available at authorized Polaris dealers. Commonly needed parts include the drive belt, spark plug, and brake pads. You can also check online retailers but ensure compatibility with the 120 XCR (2000) model.

Ice

It is dangerous to operate on ice or underslippery conditions. If ice or slippery conditions are unavoidable, use extreme caution and operate at speeds of faster than a walk. Never attempt an abrupt change of direction on a slippery surface. The chance of "spin-out" increases under these conditions. Being able to turn as now mobile depends primarily on the skis being in snow. On hardsurfaces, such as ice, the ability to turn is reduced and them machinewill not turn very well. In this situation it maybe best to dismount and move either the front or rear of them machinetopoint it in the proper direction.

HillyTerrain

WARNING

Traveling on hilly terrain is not recommended. It takes some maneuvering of bodyweight that achildmaynotbecapableof, which will leavethechildat risk. If traveling on hilly terrain is unavoidable, teach your child to exercise extreme caution as well as the proper operating procedure as outlined below.

Whenreachingthecrestofthehill, theoperator mustslowdownandbeprepared to react to obstacles, sharpdrops, or other people or vehicles which maybe on the otherside of the hill.

RidingDownhill

Whenridingdownhill, the operator must keep the speed at a minimum. It is important to apply just enough throttle to keep the clutch engaged while descending the hill. This will allow use of the engine's compression to help slow the machine, and keep the snow mobile from rolling freely downhill.

WARNING

ResponsibleDriving

Itisuptoyou, theparent, to teach your child the proper and safeway or ideas now mobile. You must set boundaries and adher to them, keeping your child's safety foremost your mind. Never allow your child to operate this machine without adult supervision.

PRESERVATIONOFTHEENVIRONMENT

Teachyourchildtodrivetheirsnowmobilewithconsiderationfortheprotectionand preservationoftheenvironment.

NoiseLevel

Oneofthemostpublicizedsubjectswithregardtosnowmobilesisnoise. The Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), which is the standard-setting body for snowmobiles, has recommended that snowmobiles conform to prescribed sound levels. This Polarissnowmobile has been engineered to conform to these SAE standards.

Inordertobemeaningful, all regulations require the cooperation of the snowmobile owner. Mufflingsystems, designed to reducenoise levels, should not be altered or removed. Snowmobile drivers must be aware that they have a public responsibility to operate their snowmobiles with concern for others. As a snowmobile operator you may not realize the sound of yours snowmobile may annoynon-snow mobiles. We are attempting to our part through the manufacture of quieter machines, and we also ask your help in the effort to further reduce the impact of noise.

AirPollution

AsapartofPolaris'planforthesnowmobile'scompatibilitywithintheenvironment, ourengineersareinvestigatingwaystoreduceemissionlevelsofengines.Weexpectoureffortstoleadtothereductionofpotentialairpollution.

The four-stroke engine used in this snow mobile produces lessexhaustemissions and reduces noise, as well.

In addition to technological research, we also suggest that governmental agencies, manufacturers, distributors, dealers, ecologists, and other interested parties work together to develop data on environmental topics. Wewill continuetoparticipate in this type of study so that someday was may find the answer to those difficult issues.

Environmental Protection

The steering of themachines should be checked periodically for loose nuts and bolts. SeeA,B,C,D,E,andFin illustrationatright.

With handlebars in straight ahead position and measuring from the straightedgeoftheskis, the measurement betweentheskisatpointH should be 1/8 inches greater than pointI, as shownonthefollowing page. NOTE: This measurement should betaken with the vehicle weight compressing the suspension. If the skis are misaligned, we recommend that your dealer makethenecessary adjustments.

Improper alignment or adjustment may cause loss of steering control, resulting in serious injury or death. Donot attempt to changetheskialignment. Contact your Polaris dealer.

SkiSkags

Theskagisareplaceablebar attachedtotheundersideofthe ski. The purpose of the skag is to assist in turning the snowmobile and to prevent the wearing away of the skica caused by contact with roads and other bare terrain.
