MAINTENANCE
Adjustments
It is your responsibility as the snowmobile owner to perform preventative mainte-
nance and periodic adjustments. Many of the items listed in this section you can
perform yourself. However, at times your snowmobile may need service requiring
special tools and technical skills. In these situations, we recommend you contact
your Polaris dealer.
Loose nuts and bolts can reduce your snowmobile's reliability and cause needless
repairs and down time. Before beginning any snowmobile trip, a quick inspection
of these areas will uncover potential problems.

ly or approximately every 1000 miles (1600 km). The in the illustration indicates
