Pre-Ride Inspection; Track Condition - Polaris Frontier Owner's Manual

PRE-RIDE INSPECTION

Steering System
Manually turn the skis completely to the right and to the left. If any
difficulty is encountered, check for ice and snow build-up that may be
obstructing the steering linkage. Make sure all greasable components
are properly lubricated.

Track Condition

Driving at high speeds for extended periods of time in marginal
lubrication could severely damage track rods, break track edges, and
cause other track damage. Examples of marginal lubrication would
include frozen bodies of water without snow cover, icy trails, and
no-snow conditions.
NOTE: Track damage or failure caused by operation on ice or in poor
lubrication conditions is not covered by warranty.
Always inspect the track for damage before using the vehicle.
Operating the snowmobile with a damaged track increases the
possibility of track failure, which could cause loss of control
resulting in serious injury or death.
Hood Latches
The hood of the snowmobile protects the operator from moving parts
and aids in sound emission control and other functions. Under no
circumstances should your snowmobile be operated with the hood open
or removed.
Oil Level
Always check the oil level on the dipstick before each ride and when
refueling. The dipstick is located on the lower left side of the engine.
Maintain the oil level between the SAFE and ADD marks on the
dipstick. See page 59.
