      If your Polaris Offroad Vehicle isn't warming up sufficiently in low ambient temperatures, warm the engine for at least 5 minutes. With the transmission in neutral, advance the throttle to about 1/8 in short bursts, 5 to 7 times. This will make the belt more flexible and prevent belt burning.
