Engine warranty coverage may become void if you use a brand
other than Polaris in your machine.
Polaris 2-Cycle Lubricants
Polaris has a family of premium oils available for use in all our
products and highly recommends their use. The only oils
recommended for Polaris 2-cycle ATVs are Polaris Premium 2-cycle
oil or Premium Gold Synthetic 2-cycle oil.
Polaris Premium 2-cycle lubricants are the most advanced formulation
of oils specifically designed for today's 2-cycle engines. Months of lab
and field tests have resulted in a new generation of 2-cycle lubricants.
Polaris Premium 2-cycle lubricants provide additives for 2-cycle
engines lacking in today's fuel that keep ring grooves cleaner for less
ring sticking and provide improved overall engine cleanliness. With
new generation lubricity technology, they excel in meeting the
lubrication demands of today's high performance 2-cycle engines.
These are optimum oils recommended for liquid cooled and air cooled
2-cycle engines. We believe these oils are the best available in the
market today.
Premium Gold Synthetic 2-Cycle Oil
Your vehicle has been primed with Premium Gold Synthetic oil. This
lubricant has been specially formulated for low smoke, low odor and
high lubricity. We recommend continued use of this oil or Premium
2-cycle oil.
Premium 2-Cycle Oil
Polaris also has a TC-W3 premium oil available for use in all of our 2
cycle products. We highly recommend its use if premium gold
synthetic is not used. The only oil recommended for this ATV is
Polaris brand oil.
Polaris Premium 2-cycle oils will readily mix with each other, however
do not mix Polaris Premium 2-cycle oils with any other oils as they
may not be compatible and engine damage may occur.
