Exhaust System; Throttle Cable Lubrication - Polaris 120 XC SP Youth Universal Owner's Safety And Maintenance Manual

Exhaust System

At approximately 50 hours it is a good idea to check the exhaust system
for wear or damage. To inspect, allow engine and exhaust system to cool
completely. Open the hood and inspect the muffler and pipes for cracks
or damage. Check for weak or missing retaining springs or damper/sup-
port grommets.
Exhaust system temperatures can exceed 900° F (500° C). Serious
burns may occur if this inspection is performed without allowing
adequate time for the exhaust system to cool. Never perform this
procedure with the engine running.

Throttle Cable Lubrication

With the engine off, lubricate
the throttle cable occasionally.
Turn the handlebars to the left
and lubricate
shown, using LBS1, WD-40,
etc.
Choke and Cable
Lubrication
Lubricate the choke slide and
cables occasionally as shown.
Operate the choke intermittent-
ly before turning the machine
off. This draws moisture out of
the choke plunger area and re-
duces the possibility of the
choke becoming frozen.
