OIL INJECTION SYSTEM
Always check and fill the oil bottle during pre-ride inspection and refueling.
NOTICE
Serious engine damage can occur without the proper lubrication. Check the oil
bottle level often during the first tank of fuel. If the oil level doesn't go down,
contact your authorized POLARIS dealer or other certified technician
immediately.
DRIVE BELT BREAK-IN
The break-in period for a new drive belt is 30 miles (48 km). During this time,
vary the throttle position under 50% and limit full throttle use.
New drive belts should be washed with warm, soapy water and allowed to air dry
prior to use.
Always take time to warm up the belt and driveline prior to operating the
snowmobile. Free the track and skis from the ground before engaging throttle.
QUICKDRIVE BELT BREAK-IN
The break-in period for a new QUICKDRIVE belt is 100 miles (160 km). During
the 100 miles of belt break-in, the rider will hear a sound made by the drive
system. After the break-in period, the sound will become similar to that of a
traditional chaincase.
Improper track tension can result in track ratcheting, which will affect
QUICKDRIVE belt durability. Always maintain proper track tension.
During the break-in period, this belt sheds a fiber-type material in and around the
drive system. Use a dry shop towel to clean the residue.
Stop occasionally and allow the snowmobile to cool after high throttle/high track
load events. This will help the QUICKDRIVE belt achieve maximum
performance and it will also break in the engine, drive belt and sprockets
properly.
