Low Oil Indicator Light

The low oil indicator light may flicker at times due to oil movement in
the bottle, but when the light comes on and remains on, add the recom-
mended oil before further operation.
Visually check the oil level in the bottle. The engine may be operated as
long as oil is visible in the oil tank. If oil is not visible, continued opera-
tion may cause serious engine damage.
Low Oil Level
Maintaining the proper oil level will prevent system aeration and possi-
ble loss of pumping action, which could result in engine damage. This is
especially important when the machine is operated in mountainous ter-
rain.
Always check the oil level when refueling. When the oil reaches the low
level mark, add one quart (.9 liters) of recommended oil to the tank. See
page 66 for oil recommendations.
NOTICE: Operating the snowmobile without adequate engine lubrication can
result in serious engine damage. Always check the oil level when refu-
eling. Add oil as needed.
The POLARIS oil cap on the oil bottle is vented to allow proper oil
flow. See your POLARIS dealer for recommended replacement parts.
Always maintain the oil level between
the "add" mark and the bottle neck.
Do not fill the bottle neck. See page
66 for oil recommendations.
