LUBRICATION RECOMMENDATIONS
Check and lubricate all components at the intervals outlined in the Periodic
Maintenance Chart, or more often under severe use, such as wet or dusty
conditions. Items not listed in the chart should be lubricated at the general
lubrication interval.

ENGINE OIL
Always check and change the oil at the intervals outlined in the Periodic
Maintenance Chart. Always use the recommended engine oil. Always change
the oil filter whenever changing oil.
Pay special attention to the oil level. A rise in oil level during cold weather can
indicate contaminants collecting in the oil sump or crankcase. Change oil
immediately if the oil level begins to rise. Monitor the oil level, and if it continues
to rise, discontinue use and determine the cause. Your dealer can assist.
WARNING
Vehicle operation with insufficient, deteriorated, or contaminated engine oil will
cause accelerated wear and may result in engine seizure, accident and injury.
Always perform the maintenance procedures as outlined in the Periodic
Maintenance Chart.
OIL RECOMMENDATIONS
POLARIS recommends the use of full synthetic POLARIS Diesel Oil (SAE 5W-
40) for this vehicle. Always use the correct viscosity grade based on the ambient
temperature expected during operation. See the chart below.
NOTICE
Mixing brands or using a non-recommended oil may cause serious engine
damage. Always use the recommended oil. Never substitute or mix oil brands.
