Operating Conditions
NOTICE: Observe the following environmental operating conditions to maintain engine performance
and avoid premature engine wear.
• Avoid operating in the presence of chemical gases or fumes.
• Avoid operating in a corrosive atmosphere such as salt water spray.
• NEVER operate the engine in a floodplain unless proper precautions are taken to avoid
being subject to a flood.
• NEVER expose the engine to the rain.
• The standard range of ambient temperatures for the normal operation of KOHLER engines
is from +5° F (-15° C) to +104° F (+40° C).
• If the ambient temperature exceeds +104° F (+40° C), the engine may overheat and cause
the engine oil to break down.
• If the ambient temperature is between +5° F (-15° C) and -25° F (-32° C), POLARIS
recommends the use of a block heater. See page 40.
