Recoil Housing - Polaris Trail Blazer 2004 Owner's Manual

MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION

Recoil Housing

1
To prevent possible engine damage,
always drain the recoil housing (1) after
operating the ATV in very wet
conditions. This should also be done
before storing the ATV.
Water will enter the recoil housing if
the starter handle is disengaged from
the rope guide when under water. The
recoil handle must be behind the heat
shield for it to seal properly.
The drain screw is located at the bottom of the recoil housing. Use a
wrench to remove the screw. Be sure to reinstall the screw after
draining the housing.
