STEERING WHEEL INSPECTION
Check the steering wheel for specified freeplay and smooth operation at the
intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart.
1. Position the vehicle on level ground.
2. Lightly turn the steering wheel left and right.
3. There should be 0.8-1.0 in (20-25 mm) of freeplay.
4. If there is excessive freeplay or strange noises, or if the steering feels rough
or “catchy,” have the steering system inspected by an authorized POLARIS
dealer or other qualified personnel.
BATTERY
WARNING
Batteries produce explosive gases. Keep sparks, flame, cigarettes, etc. away.
Ventilate when charging or using in an enclosed space. Always wear eye
protection when working near batteries.Improperly connecting or disconnecting
battery cables can cause sparks, which can result in an explosion and cause
serious injury or death. When removing the battery, always disconnect the
negative (black) cable first. When reinstalling the battery, always connect the
negative (black) cable last.
WARNING
Do not jump-start using jumper cables that are made to connect one vehicle to
another. The battery gives off explosive hydrogen gas during normal operation.
A spark near the battery can ignite this gas and cause an explosion. To start a
vehicle or charge a battery, use a portable battery-powered jump starter (such
as the POLARIS Flex Jump Starter) or plug-in battery charger, as these
products can reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, and explosion. Improper
starting or charging can damage vehicle electronics.
Your vehicle has a low-maintenance battery. Always keep battery terminals and
connections free of corrosion. If cleaning is necessary, remove the corrosion
with a stiff wire brush. Wash with a solution of one tablespoon baking soda and
one cup water. Rinse well with tap water and dry off with clean shop towels. Coat
the terminals with dielectric grease or petroleum jelly.
NOTICE
If more amperage is required for high electrical loads, an additional battery can
be added.
