Brake Fluid - Polaris Ranger 4x4 700 EFI Owner's Manual

MAINTENANCE
Brakes
The front and rear brakes are hydraulic disc type brakes activated by the
brake pedal. See page 31.

Brake Fluid

Inspect the brake system routinely. Inspect the level of the brake fluid
before each operation.
Change the brake fluid every two years and any time the fluid becomes
contaminated, the fluid level is below the minimum, or if the type and
brand of the fluid in the reservoir are unknown.
1. Position the vehicle on a level
surface.
2. View the brake fluid level at the
reservoir in the driver's side
wheel well. The level should be
between the upper (MAX) and
lower (MIN) level lines.
3. If the fluid level is lower than
the upper level line, add brake
fluid to the upper (MAX) line.
4. Apply the brake forcefully for a
few seconds and check for fluid
leakage around the fittings.
After opening a bottle of brake fluid, always discard any unused portion.
Never store or use a partial bottle. Brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it
rapidly absorbs moisture from the air. The moisture causes the boiling
temperature of the brake fluid to drop, which can lead to early brake fade and
the possibility of accident or severe injury.
