Maintenance

Throttle Cable Lubrication

With the engine off, lubricate the throttle
cable occasionally. Turn the handlebars
to the left and lubricate liberally with
Polaris All Season Grease.
Choke/Cable Lubrication
Lubricate the choke slide and cables
occasionally as shown. Operate the choke
intermittently before turning the machine
off. This draws moisture out of the choke
plunger area and reduces the possibility of
the choke becoming frozen.

Throttle Cable Pivot Slug

Lubricate the throttle cable pivot
slug (A) every 50 hours or twice
a year using an aerosol lubricant.
