MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Adjustments
Drive Chain
Polaris ATV drive chains are equipped with o-ring-seal ed, permanently
greased pins and rollers. However, the outer surfaces of the roller must
be lubricated.
Always inspect the drive chain prior to operating the vehicle. Check for
damaged or missing o-rings or damaged rollers. Also check for correct
slack adjustment. Maintain the stone guard to rear sprocket clearance
at 1/8″ (.3 cm).
Regularly lubricate the drive chain with SAE 80-90 lube or an
approved o-ring chain spray lube. See page 108 for the part numbers of
Polaris products.
Washing the drive chain with a high pressure washer or
gasoline can cause damage to the o-rings, causing premature
wear and drive chain failure. Don’t use a high pressure washer
or gasoline to clean the drive chain.
