All PVT maintenance or repairs should be performed by

a certified Polaris Master Service Dealer (MSD)

technician who has received the proper training and

understands the procedures outlined in this manual.

Because of the critical nature and precision

balance incorporated into the PVT components, it is

absolutely essential that no disassembly or repair

be made without factory authorized special tools

The Polaris Variable Transmission (PVT) consists of

three major assemblies:

1) The Drive Clutch

2) The Driven Clutch

3) The Drive Belt

The internal components of the drive clutch and driven

clutch control engagement (initial vehicle movement),

clutch upshift and backshift. During vehicle development,

the PVT system is matched first to the engine power

curve; then to average riding conditions and the vehicle's

intended usage. Therefore, modifications or variations of

components at random are never recommended. Proper

components must be the primary objective when

troubleshooting and tuning.
