Throttle Cable Lubrication - Polaris 2000 Universal Snow Owner's Safety And Maintenance Manual

MAINTENANCE
Surge Tank Models
1. Remove the pressure cap from the recovery tank and fill with properly mixed
coolant to the maximum indicated mark.
2. Elevate front end of machine slightly to aid bleeding of the heat exchangers.
3. Remove the bleed screw from the water outlet manifold and/or the thermostat
housing. Allow the coolant to bleed through the system until it runs out the
bleed holes. Reinstall the bleed screw into the manifold.
4. Fill the recovery tank back to the maximum indicated mark.
5. Start the engine and run at a fast idle for two to three minutes. Occasionally
loosen the bleed screw to purge any trapped air in the system.
6. Shut off engine and check the recovery tank level. Fill as required.
7. Feel the heat exchangers under the running boards. If the system is bled
properly, they will be warm to the touch. If they are not, repeat step four and lift
the front of the machine slightly to assist in the bleeding.

Throttle Cable Lubrication

With the engine off, lubricate the
throttle cable occasionally with Polar-
is Cable Lubricant (PN 2870510).
Turn the handlebars to the left and lu-
bricate liberally as shown.
Choke and Cable Lubrication
Lubricate the choke slide and cables
occasionally as shown with Polaris
Cable Lubricant (PN 2870510). Oper-
ate the choke intermittently before
turning the machine off. This draws
moisture out of the choke plunger
area and reduces the possibility of the
choke becoming frozen.
