COOLING SYSTEM BLEEDING
PROCEDURE
1. Put the transmission in PARK (P).
CAUTION
Be sure the engine has cooled and there is no pressure
built up in the cooling system before removing the
radiator cap. The coolant may be hot and could cause
severe injury or burns.
2. Remove the front rack to access the radiator pressure
cap and recovery bottle.
3. Remove the pressure cap and top off coolant. Leave
the pressure cap off at this point.
4. Remove recovery bottle fill cap and fill the bottle to
the MAX line. Reinstall the recovery bottle cap.
NOTICE
If coolant level is very LOW in the radiator, or if there
are leaks in the system, the coolant system will not
draw coolant from the recovery bottle.
5. Start the engine and allow it to idle for 5-10 minutes
until the thermostat opens and allows coolant to travel
through the entire system.
NOTICE
When the thermostat opens the radiator coolant level
will drop significantly.
6. Squeeze coolant lines to help purge the system of air.
7. With engine still idling, top off the radiator with Polaris
Premium Antifreeze. If no air bubbles are seen at the
radiator filler neck, the system should be purged of
air.
8. Install the radiator pressure cap.
NOTICE
Be sure to install the radiator pressure cap before
shutting off the engine.
Coolant may spit out of the radiator.
9. Stop the engine and allow it to cool. Top off the
radiator with coolant. If you hear or see a “glug” at the
filler neck or the coolant level drops indicating that
coolant has been pulled into the system, fill the
radiator first before filling the recovery bottle.
10.Any air remaining in the system should continue to
bleed out through the recovery bottle.
11. Repeat this procedure if you are still having difficulty
bleeding the system.
