TABLE OF CONTENTS
PRESERVATION OF THE ENVIRONMENT
POLARIS is committed to supporting an environmental education campaign. We
encourage state and provincial governments across the snowbelt to adopt
rigorous safety training programs that encourage protection of our environment,
including wildlife and vegetation.
Snowmobile clubs and other organizations are working together to protect our
environment. Please support their efforts and operate your snowmobile with
consideration for the protection and preservation of our environment.
NOISE LEVEL
One of the most publicized issues about snowmobiles is noise. The Society of
Automotive Engineers (SAE), the standard-setting body for snowmobile
development, recommends that snowmobiles conform to prescribed sound
levels.
POLARIS snowmobiles are engineered to conform to these SAE standards. Our
muffler systems are designed to reduce noise levels and must not be altered or
removed. The sound of your snowmobile may not be welcome to non-
snowmobilers, so you have a responsibility to operate your snowmobile with
concern for others. We do our part by manufacturing quieter machines; we ask
your help to further reduce the impact of noise by operating your snowmobile
safely and responsibly.
AIR POLLUTION
POLARIS engineers continuously investigate ways to reduce emission levels of
two-stroke engines. We expect our efforts to lead to the reduction of potential air
pollution.
In addition to our technological research, we encourage government agencies,
manufacturers, distributors, dealers, ecologists, and other interested parties to
work together to develop data on environmental topics.

INTRODUCTION
SAFETY
OPERATOR SAFETY
Follow the recommended maintenance program beginning on page 98 of this
manual to ensure that all critical components on the snowmobile are thoroughly
inspected at specific mileage intervals. Your dealer can perform this service.
WARNING
Driving a snowmobile requires your full attention. DO NOT drink alcohol or use
drugs or medications before or while driving or riding as a passenger. They will
reduce your alertness and slow your reaction time.
Snowmobiles are capable of traveling at high speeds. Use extra caution to
ensure operator safety. Make sure your snowmobile is in excellent operating
condition at all times. Always check major and vital safety components before
every ride.
All POLARIS snowmobiles are designed and tested to provide safe operation
when used as directed. Failure of critical machine components may result from
operation with any modifications, especially those that increase speed or
power. DO NOT MODIFY YOUR MACHINE. The snowmobile may become
aerodynamically unstable at speeds higher than those for which it is designed.
Loss of control may occur at higher speeds. Modifications may also create a
safety hazard and lead to bodily injury.
The warranty on your entire machine is terminated if any equipment has been
added, or any modifications have been made, to increase the speed or power
of the snowmobile.

SAFETY
RIDING APPAREL
HELMET
Wearing a helmet can prevent a severe head injury. Whenever riding this
POLARIS vehicle, always wear a helmet that meets or exceeds established
safety standards.
Approved helmets in the USA and Canada bear a U.S.
Department of Transportation (DOT) label.
Approved helmets in Europe, Asia and Oceania bear
the ECE 22.05 label. The ECE mark consists of a
circle surrounding the letter E, followed by the
distinguishing number of the country which has
granted approval. The approval number and serial
number will also be displayed on the label.
EYE PROTECTION
Do not depend on eyeglasses or sunglasses for eye protection. Whenever riding
a POLARIS vehicle, always wear shatterproof goggles or use a shatterproof
helmet face shield. POLARIS recommends wearing approved Personal
Protective Equipment (PPE) bearing markings such as VESC 8, V-8, Z87.1, or
CE. Make sure protective eye wear is kept clean.
13
SAFETY
EXCESSIVE SPEED
WARNING
High speed driving, especially at night, could result in serious injury or death.
Always reduce speed when driving at night or in inclement weather.
Always observe all state and local laws governing snowmobile operation and
speed limits. Always be alert and pay attention to the trail ahead. If your speed is
40 MPH (64 km/h), your snowmobile is traveling about 60 feet (18 m) per
second. If you look back for only two seconds, your snowmobile will travel about
120 feet (36 m). If your speed is 60 MPH (96 km/h), your snowmobile will travel
about 180 feet (55 m) in two seconds.
Traveling at night requires extra caution. Check headlight and taillight to ensure
proper operation, and don’t over-drive your headlight beam. Always be able to
bring your snowmobile to a stop in the distance illuminated by the headlight.
DRIVER AWARENESS
Slow down when traveling near poles, posts, or other obstacles. Be especially
alert if you're snowmobiling after dark. Always be on the alert for wire fences.
Single strands are especially dangerous, since there may be a great distance
between posts. Guy wires on utility poles are also difficult to distinguish.
Make sure the way is clear before crossing railroads
and other roads and highways. The noise of your
snowmobile will drown out the sound of approaching
vehicles. Look ahead, behind, and to both sides before
turning or crossing railroad tracks or highways. Steep
embankments may also hide your view. Always leave
yourself a way out.
Variances in snow depth and/or water currents may result in uneven ice
thickness. You may drown if you break through the ice. Never travel on frozen
bodies of water unless you have first verified that the ice is sufficiently thick to
support the weight and moving force of the snowmobile, you and your cargo,
together with any other vehicles in your party. Always check with local authorities
and residents to confirm ice conditions and thickness over your entire route.
Snowmobile operators assume all risk associated with ice conditions on frozen
bodies of water.
When teaching inexperienced operators to ride, set up a predetermined course
for practice. Make sure they know how to drive and control the snowmobile
before allowing them to make longer trips. Teach them proper snowmobile
courtesy, and enroll them in driver's training and safety courses.
15
SAFETY
DISABLED OPERATORS
Safe operation of this rider-active vehicle requires good judgement and physical
skills. Operators with cognitive or physical disabilities have an increased risk of
loss of control, which could result in serious injury or death.
MOUNTAINOUS TERRAIN RIDING
Mountainous terrain operation, even for experienced riders, can present
conditions and situations that could result in serious injury or death. Please
review all of the information about riding in mountainous terrain on the following
pages of this manual.
WARNING
An avalanche can occur at any time, in any conditions and on any slope.
The avalanche information provided in this manual should be considered basic
information and is not intended to replace your participation in an avalanche
safety training course. After reviewing the avalanche information in this manual,
be sure to participate in an avalanche safety training course before riding in
mountainous terrain. The training course will provide more information as well as
the opportunity to practice riding and using proper search and recovery
techniques.

SAFETY
GET TO KNOW YOUR SAFETY GEAR
Following the safety gear and apparel recommendations will increase your
chances of survival if you encounter an avalanche or become stranded in the
backcountry, but even experienced and properly-equipped snowmobilers, hikers
and skiers perish in avalanches or succumb to hypothermia. Using a beacon or
probe for the first time during an avalanche recovery operation, or not knowing
how to deploy your avalanche air bag backpack during a slide, should be
considered UNACCEPTABLE to you and all members of your riding group. It’s
critical that you know how to use the safetyand all members of your riding group
gear.
While you may know how to use your gear, you may have to rely on your
riding group to find you in an avalanche. Make sure they know how to use
their gear.
• Dress in layers. Multiple layers of clothing provide the best barrier to cold and
wind. Layers can be removed, but if you start out without enough layers, they
cannot be added later. Avoid cotton materials, which will freeze if they get wet.
• Wear highly visible gear.
• Try on all gear and equipment to make sure it fits and doesn’t interfere with
your riding capabilities. Place all survival aids in your backpack and wear the
backpack at all times. Non-essential items can be stored on the snowmobile
in an accessory bag.
• Read and follow the manufacturer’s user and maintenance instructions for all
gear. If you have questions about how your gear works, contact the
manufacturer for more information.
• Practice using your beacons, shovels and probes with your riding group in
real-world conditions wearing all of your gear. Have someone hide an active
“transmitting” beacon by throwing it (not walking it) into a snowbank and
timing your group’s search for it.
• Test deploying your gear. If you own an avalanche air bag backpack, check
with the manufacturer’s test deployment guidelines and bottle weight
replacement specifications. Most air bag backpack manufacturers
recommend testing the pack once a year so you know it works and feel
comfortable with the bag and deployment time.
• Make sure your probe and shovel are in good condition and that you know
how to assemble them.
18
SAFETY
GET THE PICTURE
Slopes steeper than 30º are more
prone to avalanches, but any slope
should be considered avalanche
terrain, even small slopes with trees.
Low-angle slopes are also
avalanche terrain if they have
steeper slopes above them.
NOTE
The 30º slope graphic is for illustration purposes only. The risk of an avalanche
is always present in mountainous terrain, regardless of slope angle.
Always look for the following warning signs of unstable snow. If you see or hear
any of these signs, riding on or below any slope is dangerous and should be
avoided:
• Recent avalanches
• A “whumpfing” sound under a
snowpack
• Cracks across the top of a snowpack
• A recent heavy snowfall
• Blowing snow
• Rain
• Rapid warming
GET OUT OF HARM’S WAY
• Before riding, always tell a responsible person (i.e. at the lodge or gas station)
where your group is going.
• Never ride alone. Always ride in a small, manageable group. Riding in a large
group makes it more difficult to track riders or find missing members.
• Go “one at a time”. Only one snowmobile at a time should cross, ascend or
highmark a slope. Other riders should watch from a safe location until the
previous rider exits the slope.
• Never park at the base of a slope or at the bottom of a gully or valley. When
parking to take a break or watch other riders, park at the sides of the slope
with the front of your snowmobile pointed away from the slope.
19
SAFETY
ICE AND SNOW BUILD-UP
WARNING
Ice and snow build-up may interfere with the steering of your snowmobile,
resulting in serious injury or death. Keep the underhood area free of snow and
ice.
Before driving, manually turn the skis to the left and right to be sure ice and
snow are not interfering with full left and right steering. If difficulty is
encountered, remove ice and snow build-up that may be obstructing the steering
linkage.
DRIVING ON SLIPPERY SURFACES
WARNING
Never attempt an abrupt change of direction when operating on slippery
surfaces. Proceed slowly and use extra caution. Driving on ice or hard-packed
snow reduces steering and braking control, which may result in loss of control
and serious injury or death. Slow down and use extra caution when operating
on slippery surfaces.
INADEQUATE SNOW CONDITIONS
Since snow provides the only lubrication for the power slide suspension and, on
liquid cooled models, cooling for the engine, adequate snow cover is a
requirement for operation of your snowmobile.
NOTICE
Driving in too little snow will result in excessive wear and damage to the slide
rail, track and/or engine.
WARNING
Inadequate cooling and lubrication will lead to overheating of the slide rail and
track, causing premature wear, damage and failure, which can result in serious
injury. Reduce speeds and frequently drive into fresh snow to allow adequate
cooling and polishing of the slide rail and track surfaces. Avoid operating for
prolonged periods on ice, hard-packed surfaces or roads.
OPERATING IN DEEP SNOW
If the snowmobile becomes stuck in snow, clear the running board area of snow,
then step down the snow in front of the snowmobile so that when the throttle is
opened, the snowmobile will be able to climb up and over the snow.
22
SAFETY
DRIVING DOWNHILL
When riding downhill, shift your weight to the rear of the snowmobile and reduce
your speed to a minimum. Apply just enough throttle to keep the clutch engaged,
allowing the engine's compression to help slow the snowmobile and keep it from
rolling freely downhill.
WARNING
When driving on long downhill stretches, pump the brakes. Riding the brakes
may cause the brake system to overheat, which may result in brake failure.
Excessive or repetitive use of the brakes for high speed stops will also cause
an overheated brake system. This condition may lead to a sudden loss of
brakes and/or fire and may result in serious injury or death.
DRIVING IN HILLY TERRAIN
WARNING
Climbing a hill or crossing the face of a slope may result in loss of balance and
snowmobile rollover, causing serious injury or death. Use caution and good
judgement when driving in hilly terrain.
Use extra caution when operating in hilly terrain. If climbing a hill is unavoidable,
keep your weight low and forward. If you must cross the face of a slope, keep
your weight on the uphill side of the snowmobile to maintain proper balance and
avoid possible roll-over.
Slow down when reaching the crest of a hill. Be prepared to react to obstacles,
sharp drops or other people or vehicles that may be on the other side of the hill.
If you're unable to continue up a hill, turn the snowmobile downhill before it loses
momentum. If this isn't possible, spin the track just enough to dig in to prevent it
from rolling back down the hill. Stop the engine and set the parking brake (if
equipped). Keeping away from the downhill side of the snowmobile, pull the rear
of the snowmobile around and point the front end and skis downhill. Remount
the snowmobile, restart the engine, release the parking brake, and descend the
hill carefully.
23
SAFETY
DRIVE BELT
Do not operate the engine with the drive belt removed.
Any servicing that requires operation without a belt can be performed by your
dealer.
WARNING
Operation of the engine with the belt removed may result in injury or damage to
the engine.
INTAKE SILENCER
Do not operate the engine with the intake silencer or filter removed.
NOTICE
Damage to the engine may occur if the intake silencer or filter are removed.
CLUTCHES
Do not attempt to service the clutches.
All clutch service can be performed by your dealer. The clutch is a complex
mechanism that rotates at high speeds. Each clutch is dynamically balanced
before installation. Any tampering may disrupt this precision balancing and
create an unstable condition.
COLD WEATHER DRIVE-AWAY
Whenever your snowmobile has been parked for a length of time, especially
overnight, always make sure the skis and track are loosened from ice and snow
before attempting to drive. Apply the throttle with enough authority to put the
snowmobile into motion, but always operate within safety limits.
MANEUVERABILITY
While much control and maneuverability is achieved through the steering
system and skis, maximum control is achieved by the shifting of your body
weight. Maneuverability will change for lighter operators or snowmobiles
designed to carry a load.
24
SAFETY
DRIVING RESPONSIBLY
Every snowmobile handles differently, and even the most docile conditions may
become dangerous if operators drive improperly. If you're new to snowmobiling,
acquaint yourself with the snowmobile and with what it will and won't do under
various conditions. Even seasoned drivers should spend some time getting the
feel for a snowmobile before attempting ambitious maneuvers.
• A snowmobile depends on the rider's body position for proper balance in
executing turns, traversing hills, etc. Always start on a smooth, level area to
begin building your operating experience.
• Before allowing someone else to use your snowmobile, know the extent of
their operating skills. Check to see if they've taken a snowmobile safety
course and have an operator's certificate. For their protection, as well as
yours, make sure they take a snowmobile safety course. Everyone can
benefit from the course.
• Don't “jump” your snowmobile over large drifts or similar terrain. Jumping may
injure your back because of spinal compression that could occur when the
snowmobile impacts the ground. The seat and suspension of your
snowmobile have been designed to provide protection under normal riding
conditions. Your snowmobile is not intended for this kind of use.
• Be courteous to oncoming traffic by dimming your headlights and reducing
your speed.
• When traveling in a group of snowmobiles, don't tailgate (follow too closely).
Leave enough distance between snowmobiles to provide ample stopping
room and to provide protection from flying snow and debris. Allow even more
distance when driving on slippery surfaces or when driving in darkness or
other low visibility conditions. Be aware of any snowmobile traffic around your
vehicle. Drive defensively to avoid accidents.
• Remove the key from the ignition when you leave the snowmobile
unattended.

SHOCK COMPRESSION DAMPING
The primary adjustment for overall vehicle balance is torsion spring preload.
Perform this adjustment first. After adjusting torsion spring preload to your
satisfaction, compression damping adjustments can be made to control ride
quality and bottoming resistance.
Compression damping can be adjusted at the front suspension and at the front
and rear track shock. Make adjustments in 2-click increments, then test ride.
When adjusting the front suspension, always adjust both clickers equally.
To stop bottoming of the front or rear suspension (stiffer ride), rotate the clicker
(s) clockwise two clicks (as viewed from the top of the clicker), then test ride.
Repeat the adjustment until bottoming stops and the desired ride quality is
achieved.
For a more plush ride at the front or rear suspension, rotate the clicker(s)
counter-clockwise two clicks, then test ride. Repeat the adjustment until the
desired ride quality is achieved.

STEERING SYSTEM
WARNING
Ice and snow build-up may interfere with the steering of your snowmobile,
resulting in serious injury or death. Keep the underhood area free of snow and
ice.
Before driving, manually turn the skis to the left and right to be sure ice and
snow are not interfering with full left and right steering. If difficulty is
encountered, remove ice and snow build-up that may be obstructing the steering
linkage.
TRACK
Track damage or failure caused by operation on ice or poor lubrication
conditions voids the track warranty.
WARNING
Operating the snowmobile with a damaged track increases the possibility of
track failure, which could cause loss of control resulting in serious injury or
death. Always inspect the track for damage before using the vehicle.
WARNING
Use of traction products such as studs increases the possibility of track
damage and/or failure. Driving at high speeds for extended periods of time in
marginal lubrication could severely damage track rods, break track edges, and
cause other track damage. Examples of marginal lubrication would include
frozen bodies of water without snow cover, icy trails, and no-snow conditions.

BREAK-IN PERIOD
ENGINE BREAK-IN
The recommended break-in period is the time required to use the first full tank of
fuel.
Excessive heat build-up during the first three hours of operation will damage
close-fitted engine parts. Do not operate at full throttle or high speeds for
extended periods during the first three hours of use. Vary the throttle openings
and vehicle speeds to reduce friction on all close-fitting machined parts, allowing
them to break in slowly without damage.
The engine management system utilizes both a fuel injector break-in period and
oil pump enrichment program. The duration of these break-in programs is
independent of each other and is timed out based on engine run time.
Regardless of these automatic engine break-in and enrichment features, the
following engine break-in procedures must be performed when the engine is
new or overhauled.
NOTE
During this period of increased oiling, sled performance will not be affected and
you should ride normally.

OPERATION
Never mix brands of oil. Serious chemical reactions can cause injection system
blockage, resulting in serious engine damage. Oils may also be incompatible
and the result could be sludge formation, filter blockage, and reduced cold
weather flow rates. All POLARIS oils are compatible with each other.
NOTICE
Use of any lubricants other than those recommended by POLARIS may cause
serious engine damage. We recommend the use of POLARIS lubricants for
your vehicle.
Drive with extra caution during the break-in period. Perform regular checks on
fluid levels, lines, and all other important areas of the snowmobile.
OIL INJECTION SYSTEM
Always check and fill the oil bottle when refueling.
NOTICE
Serious engine damage can occur without the proper lubrication. Check the oil
bottle level often during the first tank of fuel. If the oil level doesn't go down,
your dealer can assist.
DRIVE BELT BREAK-IN
The break-in period for a new drive belt is 30 miles (48 km). During this time,
vary the throttle position under 50% and limit full throttle use.
New drive belts should be washed with warm, soapy water and allowed to air dry
prior to use.
Always take time to warm up the belt and driveline prior to operating the
snowmobile. Free the track and skis from the ground before engaging throttle.
89
OPERATION
FUEL SYSTEM DEICERS
If you use non-ethanol fuel (sometimes labeled “non-oxygenated”), POLARIS
recommends the regular use of isopropyl-based fuel system deicer. Add one to
two ounces per gallon (8-16 ml per liter) of gasoline to prevent damage resulting
from fuel system icing. Never use deicers or additives containing methanol.
POLARIS recommends the use of Carbon Clean.
If you use fuel with up to 10% ethanol (sometimes labeled “oxygenated”)
do not add deicers or additives that contain any form of alcohol.
OIL
LOW OIL LEVEL
Always maintain the oil level between
the “add” mark and the bottle neck. Do
not fill the bottle neck.
1. Immediately stop the engine if the
low oil indicator light comes on.
2. Open the left side panel.
3. View the oil level in the oil bottle.
4. Add oil as needed before operating.
NOTICE
Operating the snowmobile without adequate engine lubrication can result in
serious engine damage. Always check the oil level when refueling. Add oil as
needed.
The oil bottle cap is vented to allow proper oil flow. Your POLARIS dealer can
assist with recommended replacement parts.
THROTTLE LEVER
WARNING
An improperly functioning throttle lever may cause erratic snowmobile behavior
and loss of control, which could result in serious injury or death. If the throttle
lever does not work properly, DO NOT start the engine.
If the engine stops abruptly when the throttle lever is released:
1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2. Visually inspect the throttle cable and carburetor/throttle body to determine
what caused the safety switch to activate.
92
OPERATION
3. Test the throttle lever by compressing and releasing it several times. The
lever and cable must return to the idle position quickly and completely.
4. If the throttle lever operates properly, turn the ignition switch on and go
through normal starting procedures.
5. If the engine doesn't start, your authorized POLARIS dealer can perform this
service.
Excessive freeplay in the throttle cable may cause the safety switch to activate,
preventing the engine from starting. If this occurs, return the snowmobile to an
authorized POLARIS dealer for service.
If an emergency exists and it's necessary to start the engine, the throttle safety
switch and engine stop switch may be disconnected from the wire harness.
When these switches are disconnected, the ignition key switch must be used to
shut off the engine. DO NOT continue to operate the snowmobile with the throttle
safety switch disconnected. Return the snowmobile to an authorized POLARIS
dealer for service as soon as possible.
ENGINE STOP SWITCH
Push down on the engine stop switchq
to ground out the ignition and stop the
engine quickly. Pull the switch up to the
ON position to allow restarting.
THROTTLE SAFETY SWITCH
The throttle safety switch is designed to
stop the engine whenever all pressure
is removed from the throttle lever and
the throttle cable or valves do not return
to the normal closed position.
93
OPERATION
WARNING
Operating the snowmobile with a faulty throttle safety switch can result in
serious injury or death in the event of an accident. If the throttle safety switch
does not shut off the engine during a carburetor/throttle system malfunction,
immediately push down the engine stop switch. Do not start the engine again
until the malfunction has been corrected by your dealer.
Test the throttle safety switch system daily before operation.
1. Sit on the seat.
2. Start the engine and allow it to idle.
3. Hold the throttle lever pin stationary by exerting pressure on the pivot pin in
the direction shown in the illustration.
4. Apply a slight amount of throttle. A properly functioning switch must shut
down the engine.
POLARIS ELECTRONIC REVERSE CONTROL (PERC)
WARNING
Improper reverse operation, even at low speeds, may cause loss of control,
resulting in serious injury or death. Damage will occur to the chaincase or
transmission if shifting is attempted when the engine is operating above idle
speed.
• Shift to or from reverse only when the snowmobile is stopped and when
engine speed is at idle.
• Look behind the vehicle before and while backing.
• Avoid sharp turns.
• Apply throttle slowly.
Electronic reverse will activate only if the engine RPM is below 3000.
CAUTION
Engaging the starter when the engine is running WILL result in serious engine
damage, especially if the engine is in reverse. Never engage the starter when
the engine is running.
94
OPERATION
ENGAGING REVERSE
1. Stop the snowmobile and leave the engine idling.
2. Make sure the area behind your vehicle is clear.
3. Push the yellow reverse button on the left-hand control for one second, then
release. The engine will automatically reduce RPM and start a reverse
rotation. A flashing reverse light on the instrument panel will indicate that the
transmission is in reverse.
4. Apply the throttle slowly to make sure the transmission is in reverse. The
maximum engine RPM will be 5000 when in reverse.
TIP
If the engine stops running, the snowmobile will be in forward gear when it's
restarted.
DISENGAGING REVERSE
1. Stop the snowmobile and leave the engine idling.
CAUTION
Engaging the starter when the engine is running WILL result in serious engine
damage, especially if the engine is in reverse. Never engage the starter when
the engine is running.
2. Push the yellow reverse button for one second and release. The engine will
slow and begin to rotate forward. The light on the instrument panel will shut
off.
