See page 63 for oil recommendations.
n Low Oil Indicator Light
The low oil indicator light will alert the operator if the oil level is low.
Visually check for oil in the oil tank. Add oil before further operation of
the snowmobile. Fill to the bottom of the filler neck.
n Low Oil Level
Always check the oil level in the oil tank when refueling. Fill to the bot-
tom of the filler neck. Never operate the engine if oil is not visible in the
tank.
NOTE: The Polaris oil cap on the oil tank is vented to allow proper oil
flow. See your Polaris dealer for recommended replacement
parts.
Maintaining the proper oil level will prevent system aeration and possi-
ble loss of pumping action, which could result in engine damage. This is
especially important when the machine is operated in mountainous ter-
rain.
CAUTION
Operating the snowmobile without adequate engine lubrication can result in
serious engine damage. Always check the oil level when refueling. Add oil as
needed.
