accident or overturn, which may result in serious injury or death. Heed all

safety warnings outlined in this section of the manual. See the ATV

OPERATION section of this manual for proper operating procedures.

OPERATING WITHOUT INSTRUCTION

Operating this vehicle without proper

instruction increases the risk of an accident.

The operator must understand how to

operate the vehicle properly in different

situations and on different types of terrain. All

operators must read and understand the

Owner's Manual and all warning and

instruction labels before operating the

vehicle.

AGE RESTRICTIONS

This vehicle is an ADULT VEHICLE ONLY.

Operation is prohibited for anyone under 16

years of age. Never allow anyone under 12

years of age to ride as a passenger on a 2-up

vehicle. Even though a child may be within

the recommended age group for operating

some ATVs, he/she may not have the skills,

abilities, or judgment needed to operate or

ride on this ATV safely and could be

susceptible to accident or injury.

SAFETY

USING ALCOHOL OR DRUGS

Operating the vehicle after consuming

alcohol or drugs could adversely affect

operator judgment, reaction time, balance

and perception. Never drink alcohol or use

drugs or medications before or while

operating this vehicle.

PROTECTIVE APPAREL

Riding in this vehicle without wearing an

approved helmet and protective eyewear

increases the risk of a serious injuries in the

event of an accident. Operator and all

passenger must always wear an approved

helmet that fits properly and eye protection

(goggles or face shield).

CARRYING MORE THAN ONE

PASSENGER ON A 2-UP ATV

Carrying more than one passenger on a 2-up

ATV greatly reduces the operator's ability to

balance and control the ATV, which may

result in an accident or rollover. Never carry

more than one passenger on a 2-up ATV.

SAFETY

OPERATING ON PUBLIC ROADS

Operating an off-road vehicle on public

streets, roads or highways could result in a

collision with another vehicle.

Never operate an off-road vehicle on any

public street, road or highway, including dirt

and gravel roads (unless designated for off-

highway use).

Zugmaschine Models Only: This vehicle is

approved for on-road operation.

HANDLING GASOLINE

Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive under certain conditions.

• Always exercise extreme caution whenever handling gasoline.

• Always refuel with the engine stopped, and outdoors or in a well ventilated

area.

• Do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks in or near the area where

refueling is performed or where gasoline is stored.

• Do not overfill the tank. Do not fill the tank neck.

• If gasoline spills on your skin or clothing, immediately wash it off with soap

and water and change clothing.

SAFETY

EXPOSURE TO EXHAUST

Engine exhaust fumes are poisonous and can cause loss of consciousness or

death in a short time. Never start the engine or let it run in an enclosed area.

cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Operate this vehicle only

outdoors or in well-ventilated areas.

FAILURE TO INSPECT BEFORE OPERATING

Failure to inspect and verify that the ATV is in

safe operating condition before operating

increases the risk of an accident. Always

inspect the ATV before each use to make

sure it's in safe operating condition. Always

follow all inspection and maintenance

procedures and schedules described in the

owner's manual.

OPERATING ON PAVEMENT

Operating an off-road vehicle on paved

surfaces (including sidewalks, paths, parking

lots and driveways) may adversely affect the

handling of the off-road vehicle and could

result in loss of control and accident or

road use. Be aware while operating an off-

road vehicle on pavement. If it's unavoidable,

travel slowly and avoid sudden turns or stops.

SAFETY

PHYSICAL CONTROL OF THE ATV

Removing a hand from the handlebars or feet

from the footrests during operation can

reduce your ability to control the vehicle or

cause loss of balance and ejection from the

ATV. If the operator’s feet are not firmly

planted on the footrests, they could come into

contact with the rear wheels or other moving

parts and lead to accident or injury. Always

keep both hands on the handlebars and both

feet on the footrests of the ATV during

operation. A passenger should always be

seated in the passenger seat with both feet

on the footrests and both hands on the

passenger grab handles at all times. The

passenger should never hold on to the

operator.

TURNING IMPROPERLY

Turning improperly could cause loss of

traction, loss of control, accident or rollover.

Always follow proper procedures for turning

as described in the owner's manual. Never

turn abruptly or at sharp angles. Never turn at

high speeds. Practice turning at slow speeds

before attempting to turn at faster speeds.

JUMPS AND STUNTS

Attempting wheelies, jumps and other stunts

increases the risk of an accident or overturn.

Never attempt wheelies, jumps, or other

stunts. Avoid exhibition driving.

SAFETY

IMPROPER HILL CLIMBING

Improper hill climbing could cause loss of control or rollover. Always follow

proper procedures for climbing hills as described in the owner's manual. Always

engage ADC driveline mode (if equipped) before ascending or descending a hill.

DESCENDING HILLS IMPROPERLY

Improperly descending a hill could cause loss of control or rollover.

• Always follow proper procedures for traveling down hills as described in the

owner's manual.

NOTE

A special technique is required when braking while traveling downhill. See the

Driving Downhill section.

• Always descend a hill with the

transmission in forward gear. Do not

descend a hill with the transmission

in neutral. Always select ADC

driveline mode (if equipped) before

ascending or descending a hill.

• Always check the terrain carefully

before descending a hill.

• Shift your weight rearward.

• Never travel down a hill at high

speed.

• Avoid traveling down a hill at an

angle, which would cause the vehicle

to lean sharply to one side. Travel

straight down the hill when possible.

SAFETY

CROSSING HILLSIDES

Driving on a sidehill is not recommended.

Improper procedure could cause loss of

control or overturn. Avoid crossing the side of

any hill unless absolutely necessary. Always

engage ADC mode (if equipped) before

ascending or descending a hill. If crossing a

hillside is unavoidable, always follow proper

procedures as described in the owner’s

manual. Never attempt to turn the ATV

around on any hill until you’ve mastered the

turning technique (on level ground) as

described in the owner’s manual.

STALLING WHILE CLIMBING A HILL

Stalling, rolling backwards or improperly dismounting while climbing a hill could

cause a rollover.

• Always maintain a steady speed when climbing a hill.

• Always engage ADC mode (if equipped) before ascending or descending a

hill.

If all forward speed is lost:

• Lean forward to keep body weight uphill. A passenger should also lean uphill.

• Apply the brakes.

• Lock the parking brake when fully stopped.

• Dismount on the uphill side of the vehicle, or on the left if the vehicle is

pointing straight uphill. Have a passenger dismount first, then the operator

may dismount.

• Turn the ATV around and remount, following the procedure described in the

owner's manual.

If the ATV begins rolling downhill:

• Keep operator and passenger body weight uphill.

• Never apply engine power.

• Never apply the rear brake while rolling backwards. Apply the single-lever

brake gradually.

• When fully stopped, apply the rear brake as well, and then lock the parking

brake.

• Dismount on the uphill side of the vehicle, or on the left if the vehicle is

pointing straight uphill. Have a passenger dismount first, then the operator

may dismount.

• Turn the ATV around and remount, following the procedure described in the

owner's manual.

SAFETY

OPERATING ON STEEP HILLS

Operating on excessively steep hills could cause an overturn. Never operate on

hills too steep for the ATV or for your abilities. Never operate the ATV on hills

steeper than 15 degrees.

OPERATING ON SLIPPERY TERRAIN

Failure to use extra caution when operating

on excessively rough, slippery or loose

terrain could cause loss of traction, loss of

control, accident or rollover. Do not operate

on excessively rough, slippery or loose

terrain. Always use extra caution on rough,

slippery or loose terrain.

OPERATING IN UNFAMILIAR TERRAIN

CAUTION

Failure to use extra caution when operating on unfamiliar terrain could result in

an accident or rollover.

CAUTION

Unfamiliar terrain may contain hidden rocks, bumps, or holes that could cause

loss of control or rollover.

Travel slowly and use extra caution when operating on unfamiliar terrain. Always

be alert to changing terrain conditions.

SAFETY

OPERATING IMPROPERLY IN REVERSE

Improperly operating in reverse could result

in a collision with an obstacle or person.

Always follow proper operating procedures

as outlined in this manual. Before shifting into

reverse gear, always check for obstacles or

people behind the vehicle. When it's safe to

proceed, back slowly.

OPERATING AT EXCESSIVE SPEEDS

Operating the ATV at excessive speeds

increases the operator's risk of losing control.

Never operate at excessive speeds. Travel at

speeds appropriate for your skills, your

passenger's skills, and operating conditions.

IMPROPER TIRE MAINTENANCE

WARNING

Operating this vehicle with improper tires or with improper or uneven tire

pressure could cause loss of control or accident. Always use the size and type

of tires specified for your vehicle. Always maintain proper tire pressure as

described in the owner's manual and on safety labels.

SAFETY

OPERATING OVER OBSTACLES

Improperly operating over obstacles could

cause loss of control or rollover. Before

operating in a new area, check for obstacles.

Avoid operating over large obstacles such as

rocks and fallen trees. If unavoidable, use

extreme caution and always follow proper

operating procedures as outlined in this

manual.

SKIDDING OR SLIDING

Skidding or sliding can cause loss of control

or overturn (if tires regain traction

unexpectedly). On slippery surfaces such as

ice, travel slowly and use extra caution to

reduce the chance of skidding or sliding.

OPERATING A DAMAGED VEHICLE

CAUTION

Operating a damaged vehicle can result in an accident. After any rollover or

other accident, have a qualified service dealer inspect the entire machine for

possible damage, including (but not limited to) seat belts, rollover protection

devices, brakes, throttle, and steering systems.

SAFETY

OPERATING THROUGH DEEP WATER

Operating the ATV through deep or fast-

flowing water could cause the tires to float,

causing loss of control or overturn. Avoid

operating the ATV through deep or fast-

flowing water. If it's unavoidable to enter

water that exceeds the recommended

maximum depth:

• Travel slowly.

• Balance your weight carefully.

• Avoid sudden movements.

• Maintain a slow and steady forward motion. Do not make sudden turns or

stops, and do not make sudden throttle changes.

• Wet brakes may have reduced stopping ability. After leaving water, test the

brakes. Apply them lightly several times while driving. The friction will help dry

out the pads.

IMPROPER CARGO LOADING

Overloading the ATV or carrying/towing cargo

may cause changes in handling, which could

cause loss of control or an accident.

• Never exceed the stated load capacity for

this ATV.

• Cargo should be properly distributed and

securely attached.

• Reduce speed when carrying cargo or

pulling a trailer. Allow a greater distance for

braking.

• Always follow the instructions in the

owner's manual for carrying cargo or

pulling a trailer.

• Always follow the instructions in the

owner's manual for operating with a

passenger.

SAFETY

OPERATING ON FROZEN BODIES OF WATER

Operating on frozen bodies of water may

result in serious injury or death if the ATV

and/or riders fall through the ice.

Never operate the ATV on a frozen body of

water unless you have independently verified

that the ice is sufficiently thick to support the

weight and moving force of the ATV, you and

your cargo, together with any other vehicles

in your party. Variances in snow depth and/or

water currents may result in uneven ice

thickness. Always check with local authorities

and residents to confirm ice conditions and

thickness over your entire route. ATV

operators assume all risk associated with ice

conditions on frozen bodies of water.

POOR VISIBILITY

Operating the ATV in darkness or inclement weather could result in a collision or

accident, especially if operating on a road or street. This ATV is not equipped

with highway-approved lights. Operate this vehicle off-road only. Use caution

and drive at reduced speeds in conditions of reduced visibility such as fog, rain

and darkness. Clean headlights frequently and replace burned out head lamps

promptly.

PHYSICAL SKILLS

Safe operation of this rider-active vehicle requires good judgement and physical

skills. Persons with cognitive or physical disabilities who operate this vehicle

have an increased risk of overturn and loss of control.

HOT EXHAUST SYSTEMS

Exhaust system components are very hot during and after use of the vehicle.

Hot components can cause burns and fire. Do not touch hot exhaust system

components. Always keep combustible materials away from the exhaust

system. Use caution when traveling through tall grass, especially dry grass.

UNAUTHORIZED USE OF THE VEHICLE

Leaving the keys in the ignition can lead to unauthorized use of the vehicle by

someone under the age of 16, without a drivers license, or without proper

training. This could result in an accident or rollover. Always remove the ignition

key when the vehicle is not in use.

SAFETY

other qualified person for service if throttle problems arise.

Failure to check or maintain proper operation of the throttle system can result

in an accident if the throttle lever sticks during operation. Always check the

lever for free movement and return before starting the engine. Also check

occasionally during operation.

Modifications to the electronic throttle control could result in failure to perform

as designed, which could result in an accident. Do not attempt to modify the

throttle control system or replace it with any after market throttle mechanisms.

Engine speed and vehicle movement

are controlled by pressing the throttle

lever q. The throttle lever is spring

loaded. Engine speed returns to idle

when the lever is released. This ATV is

equipped with a throttle release switch,

which is designed to reduce the risk of a

frozen or stuck throttle.

FEATURES AND CONTROLS

BRAKE LEVER

WARNING

Operating the ATV with a spongy brake lever can result in loss of braking,

which could cause an accident. Never operate the ATV with a spongy-feeling

brake lever. Always contact your dealer for service before operating the

vehicle.

Squeeze the brake lever

toward the

handlebar to apply the front and rear

brakes. These brakes are hydraulically

activated disc type brakes that are

activated by only one lever. Always test

brake lever travel and master cylinder

fluid level before riding. When

squeezed, the lever should feel firm.

Any sponginess would indicate a

possible fluid leak or low master

cylinder fluid level, which must be

corrected before riding. Contact your

POLARIS dealer or other qualified

service facility for proper diagnosis and

repairs.

FEATURES AND CONTROLS

MASTER CYLINDER/BRAKE FLUID

WARNING

An over-full master cylinder may cause brake drag or brake lock-up, which

could result in an accident. Maintain brake fluid at the recommended level. Do

not overfill.

Never store or use a partial bottle of brake fluid. Brake fluid is hygroscopic,

meaning it rapidly absorbs moisture from the air. The moisture causes the

boiling temperature of the brake fluid to drop, which can lead to early brake

fade and the possibility of brake failure, which could result in an accident. After

opening a bottle of brake fluid, always discard any unused portion.

Check the brake fluid in the master cylinder before each ride.

1. Position the ATV on a level surface.

2. Position the handlebars so the

master cylinder q

is level.

3. View the brake fluid level through

the indicator window w

on the top of

the master cylinder. The eye will

appear dark when the fluid level is

full. When fluid is low, the eye will be

clear.

4. If the fluid level is low, remove the

cover screws and add fluid to the fill

line. Do not overfill. Use DOT 4

brake fluid only.

5. Reinstall the cover. Torque screws to

7 in-lbs (.8 Nm).

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

WARNING

Failure to operate the vehicle properly can result in a collision, loss of control,

accident or rollover, which may result in serious injury or death. Read and

understand all safety warnings outlined in the safety section of this owner’s

manual.

VEHICLE BREAK-IN PERIOD

The break-in period for your new POLARIS vehicle is the first 25 hours of

operation, or the time it takes to use the first two tanks full of gasoline. No single

action on your part is as important as a proper break-in period. Careful treatment

of a new engine and drive components will result in more efficient performance

and longer life for these components. Perform the following procedures

carefully.

NOTICE

Excessive heat build-up during the first three hours of operation will damage

close-fitted engine parts and drive components. Do not operate at full throttle

or high speeds during the first three hours of use.

Use of any improper oils may cause serious engine damage. POLARIS PS-4

Full Synthetic 5W-50 4-Cycle Oil is specifically formulated for your 4-cycle

engine.

PVT BREAK-IN (CLUTCHES/BELT)

A proper break-in of the clutches and drive belt will ensure a longer life and

better performance. Break in the clutches and belt by operating at slower

speeds during the break-in period as recommended. Pull only light loads. Avoid

aggressive acceleration and high speed operation during the break-in period.

If a belt fails, always clean any debris from the PVT intake and outlet duct and

from the clutch and engine compartments when replacing the belt.

OPERATION

ENGINE AND DRIVETRAIN BREAK-IN

1. Fill the fuel tank with gasoline. See the Fuel Tank section for details. Always

exercise extreme caution whenever handling gasoline.

2. Check the oil level. See the Oil Check section for reference. Add the

recommended oil as needed to maintain the oil level in the safe operating

range.

3. Drive slowly at first. Select an open area that allows room to familiarize

yourself with vehicle operation and handling.

4. Avoid aggressive use of the brakes.

5. Vary throttle positions. Do not operate at sustained idle.

6. Pull only light loads.

7. Perform regular checks on fluid levels, controls and areas outlined on the

daily pre-ride inspection checklist.

8. During the break-in period, change both the oil and the filter at 25 hours or

one month.

9. Check fluid levels of transmission and all gearcases after the first 25 hours of

operation and every 100 hours thereafter.

SAFE OPERATION PRACTICES

1. Complete the recommended safety training before operating this vehicle.

See the Safety section for details.

2. Do not allow anyone under 16 years of age to operate this vehicle. Do not

allow anyone with cognitive or physical disabilities to operate this vehicle.

3. Never carry a passenger on a 1-up ATV. Never carry more than one

passenger on a 2-up ATV.

4. Engine exhaust fumes are poisonous. Never start the engine or let it run in

an enclosed area.

5. Before operating, learn how to use the auxiliary brake for emergency

situations (if service brakes become inoperable).

6. Operate this vehicle off-road only. Never operate the vehicle on pavement or

on any public street, road or highway, including dirt and gravel roads.

7. Use caution and drive at reduced speeds in conditions of reduced visibility

such as fog, rain and darkness. Clean headlights frequently and replace

burned out headlamps promptly.

OPERATION

8. Drive in a manner appropriate for your skills, your passenger’s skills and

operating conditions. Never operate at excessive speeds. Never attempt

wheelies, jumps, or other stunts. Never remove your hands from the

handlebars while operating, and always keep both feet on the footrests.

9. Never consume alcohol or drugs before or while operating an ATV.

10. Always use the size and type of tires specified for your vehicle. Always

maintain proper tire pressure.

11. Never operate a damaged ATV. After any overturn or accident, have a

qualified service dealer inspect the entire machine for possible damage.

12. Never operate the ATV on a frozen body of water unless you have

independently verified that the ice is sufficiently thick to support the weight

and moving force of the ATV, you and your cargo, together with any other

vehicles in your party.

13. Do not touch hot exhaust system components. Always keep combustible

materials away from the exhaust system.

14. Always remove the ignition key when the vehicle is not in use to prevent

unauthorized use.

PRE-RIDE CHECKLIST

OPERATION

STARTING THE ENGINE

1. Position the vehicle on a level surface outdoors or in a well- ventilated area.

2. Place the transmission in PARK.

3. Lock the parking brake.

TIP

The starter interlock will prevent the engine from starting if the transmission is

in gear and the brake is not engaged.

4. Sit on the vehicle and move the engine stop switch to RUN.

TIP

Do not press the throttle while starting the engine.

5. Turn the ignition key past the ON position to engage the starter. Activate the

starter for a maximum of five seconds, releasing the key when the engine

starts.

6. If the engine does not start, return the key to the OFF position and wait five

seconds before attempting to start again. Activate the starter for another five

seconds if necessary. Repeat this procedure until the engine starts.

NOTICE

Operating the vehicle immediately after starting could cause engine damage.

Allow the engine to warm up for several minutes before operating the vehicle.

STOPPING THE ENGINE

1. Release the throttle pedal completely and brake to a complete stop.

2. Place the transmission in PARK.

3. Turn the engine off.

4. Slowly release the brake pedal and make sure the transmission is in PARK

before exiting the vehicle.

WARNING

A rolling vehicle can cause serious injury. Always place the transmission in

PARK before stopping the engine.

OPERATION

PARKING THE VEHICLE

1. Stop the vehicle on a level surface. When parking inside a garage or other

structure, be sure that the structure is well ventilated and that the vehicle is

not close to any source of flame or sparks, including any appliance with pilot

lights.

2. Place the transmission in PARK.

3. Turn the engine off.

4. Engage the parking brake (if equipped).

5. Slowly release the brake pedal and make sure the transmission is in PARK

before exiting the vehicle.

6. Remove the ignition key to prevent unauthorized use.

COLD WEATHER OPERATION

If the vehicle is used year-round, check the oil level frequently. A rising oil level

could indicate the accumulation of contaminates such as water or excess fuel in

the bottom of the crankcase. Water in the bottom of the crankcase can lead to

engine damage and must be drained. Water accumulation increases as outside

temperature decreases.

See your dealer for engine heater kits, which provide quicker warm-ups and

easier starting in colder weather.

NEW OPERATOR DRIVING PROCEDURES

1. Wear protective riding gear. See the Safe Riding Gear section.

2. Perform the pre-ride inspection.

3. Place the transmission in PARK.

4. Lock the parking brake.

5. Mount the vehicle from the left side.

6. Sit upright with both feet on the footrests and both hands on the handlebars.

7. Start the engine and allow it to warm up.

8. Shift the transmission into gear.

9. Check your surroundings and determine your path of travel.

10. Release the parking brake.

11. Slowly depress the throttle with your right thumb and begin driving.

12. Drive slowly. Practice maneuvering and using the throttle and brakes on level

surfaces.

OPERATION

DRIVING WITH A PASSENGER

1. Never carry more than one passenger on a 2-up vehicle.

2. Do not carry a passenger on a 2-up vehicle until you have at least two hours

of driving experience with the vehicle.

3. Never allow anyone under 12 years of age to ride as a passenger on a 2-up

vehicle. Make sure any passenger is tall enough to comfortably and safely

reach the grab handles and footrests. Allow a passenger to ride only in the

approved passenger seat.

4. Make sure the passenger is wearing appropriate riding gear, including an

approved helmet with a rigid chin guard. See the Rider Comfort section for

details.

5. Perform the pre-ride inspection. See the Pre-Ride Checklist section for

details.

6. Lock the parking brake.

7. Mount the vehicle from the left side. After the operator is seated, the

passenger should mount the vehicle from the left side. Always make sure the

brake is engaged to ensure the vehicle remains motionless whenever a

passenger mounts or dismounts.

8. Slow down. Control may be more difficult with a passenger on board. Allow

more time and distance for braking.

9. Ride to the ability of your passenger, instead of to your own ability. Avoid

unexpected or aggressive maneuvers that could cause a passenger to fall

from the vehicle.

10. Do not cross a hillside with a passenger on board.

OPERATION

11. A passenger should always be seated in the passenger seat with both feet

on the footrests and both hands on the passenger grab handles at all times.

The passenger should never hold on to the operator. Never secure a

passenger to the vehicle or to the operator with a belt, rope or similar device.

12. Make sure the passenger understands the importance of “active riding.”

When hill-climbing or performing maneuvers, a passenger should shift body

weight in the same manner in which the driver shifts body weight. For

example, the passenger should lean to the inside of a turn along with the

operator and should always lean uphill when climbing and descending hills.

TURNING THE VEHICLE

Your ATV is equipped with a solid rear

axle, which drives both rear wheels

equally at all times. This means that the

wheel on the outside of the turn must

travel a greater distance than the inside

wheel when turning and the inside tire

must slip traction slightly.

1. Slow down.

2. Never turn quickly when carrying a passenger or cargo.

3. Steer in the direction of the turn.

4. Keep both feet on the footrests.

5. Lean your upper body to the inside of the turn while supporting your weight

on the outer footrest. This technique alters the balance of traction between

the rear wheels, allowing the turn to be made smoothly. The same leaning

technique should be used for turning in reverse.

6. Practice making turns at slow speeds before attempting to turn at faster

speeds.

WARNING

Turning improperly can result in vehicle rollover. Never turn abruptly or at sharp

angles. Never turn at high speeds.

OPERATION

DRIVING ON SLIPPERY SURFACES

Whenever riding on slippery surfaces such as wet trails or loose gravel, or

during freezing weather, follow these precautions:

1. Do not operate on excessively rough, slippery or loose terrain.

2. Slow down when entering slippery areas.

3. Engage 4X4 before wheels begin to lose traction.

NOTICE

Severe damage to drive train may occur if the 4X4 is engaged while the wheels

are spinning. Allow the rear wheels to stop spinning before engaging 4X4, or

engage 4X4 before wheels begin to lose traction.

4. Maintain a high level of alertness, reading the trail and avoiding quick, sharp

turns, which can cause skids.

5. Never apply the brakes during a skid. Correct a skid by turning the

handlebars in the direction of the skid and shifting your body weight forward.

OPERATION

DRIVING UPHILL

Whenever traveling uphill, follow these precautions:

1. Always move the 4X4 switch to 4WDC before ascending or descending a hill.

2. Drive straight uphill.

3. Avoid steep hills. Maximum incline is: 15°

4. Avoid hills with slippery or loose surfaces.

5. Keep both feet on the footrests.

6. Shift body weight uphill. A passenger should also shift body weight uphill.

7. Proceed at a steady rate of speed to avoid stalling.

8. Be alert. Be prepared to take emergency action. This may include

dismounting quickly.

9. Never open the throttle suddenly or make sudden gear changes.

10. Never go over the top of a hill at high speed.

If all forward speed is lost:

1. Keep your weight uphill. A passenger should also lean uphill.

2. If the vehicle begins rolling downhill, never apply engine power. Never apply

the brakes aggressively while rolling backwards.

3. Apply the brakes gradually. When fully stopped, lock the hydraulic parking

brake.

OPERATION

4. Dismount on the uphill side, or on the left side if the vehicle is pointed straight

uphill. Have a passenger dismount first, then the operator may dismount.

5. Use the K-turn to turn around. Details of this procedure can be found in the

Turning Around on a Hill section.

DRIVING DOWNHILL

When driving downhill, follow these

precautions:

1. Always move the 4X4 Switch to 4WDC before ascending or descending a

hill. See the All Wheel Drive System section for details.

2. Avoid steep hills. Maximum incline is: 15°

3. Avoid hills with slippery or loose surfaces.

4. Always descend a hill with the transmission in forward gear. Do not descend

a hill with the transmission in neutral.

5. Never drive downhill at high speed. Slow down.

6. Drive straight downhill. Avoid driving downhill at an angle, which can cause

the vehicle to pitch sharply to one side.

7. Shift body weight uphill. A passenger should also shift body weight uphill.

8. Apply the brakes slightly to aid in slowing. Applying the brakes too firmly may

cause the rear wheels to lock, which could result in loss of control.

OPERATION

DRIVING ON A SIDEHILL (SIDEHILLING)

Avoid crossing the side of a hill (sidehilling), if possible. If sidehilling is

unavoidable, follow these precautions:

1. Slow down.

2. Shift body weight uphill.

3. Keep your feet on the footrests.

4. Avoid hills with slippery or loose surfaces.

5. Avoid crossing the sides of steep hills.

6. Do not cross a hillside with a passenger on board. Ask the passenger to

dismount and walk across the hillside before remounting the vehicle.

7. If the vehicle begins to slide or tip, quickly turn the front wheel downhill, if

possible, or dismount on the uphill side immediately!

OPERATION

TURNING AROUND ON A HILL (K-TURN)

If the vehicle stalls while climbing a hill, never back it down the hill! Use the K-

Turn to turn around.

1. Stop the vehicle. Keep your weight uphill.

2. Always move the 4X4 switch to 4WDC before ascending or descending a hill.

See the All Wheel Drive System section for details.

3. Lock the hydraulic parking brake.

4. Leave the transmission in forward gear. Turn the engine off.

5. Stay uphill of the vehicle and turn the handlebars full left.

6. Squeeze the brake lever to release the parking brake.

7. Slowly release the brake lever and allow the vehicle to roll around to your

right until it's pointing across the hill or slightly downward.

8. Lock the hydraulic parking brake.

9. Remount from the uphill side. Keep your weight uphill. A passenger should

not remount until the vehicle returns to firm, level ground.

10. Apply the foot brake.

11. With the transmission still in forward, start the engine.

12. Squeeze and release the brake lever to release the parking brake.

13. Release the foot brake and drive slowly downhill. Control speed with either

the hand or foot brake until the vehicle is on level ground.

OPERATION

DRIVING THROUGH WATER

Your ATV can operate through water with a maximum recommended depth

equal to the bottom of the footrests

q. Follow these procedures when operating

through water:

1. Determine water depths and current before entering water.

2. Choose a crossing where both banks have gradual inclines.

3. Avoid operating through deep or fast-flowing water.

NOTICE

Major engine damage can result if the vehicle is not thoroughly inspected after

operation in water. Perform the services outlined in the maintenance chart. The

following areas need special attention: engine oil, transmission oil, demand

drive fluid, rear gearcase oil, and all grease fittings.

If the vehicle tips or overturns in water, or if the engine stops during or after

operating in water, restarting can result in serious engine damage. Transport

the vehicle to your dealer for service before restarting the engine. If this is not

possible, follow the vehicle immersion inspection and drying procedures

outlined in the PVT Drying section, then see your dealer for service at the first

opportunity.

4. After leaving water, test the brakes. Apply them lightly several times while

driving slowly. The friction will help dry out the pads.

If it’s unavoidable to enter water deeper than the footrest level:

• Proceed slowly. Avoid rocks and obstacles.

• Balance your weight carefully. Avoid sudden movements.

• Maintain a steady rate of speed. Do not make sudden turns or stops. Do not

make sudden throttle changes.

OPERATION

DRIVING IN REVERSE

Follow these precautions when operating in reverse:

1. Always check for obstacles or people behind the vehicle.

2. Always avoid backing downhill.

3. Back slowly.

4. Apply the brakes lightly for stopping.

5. Avoid turning at sharp angles.

6. Never open the throttle suddenly.

7. Do not use the override switch unless additional wheel speed is required for

vehicle movement. Use the override with caution as rearward vehicle speed

is greatly increased. Do not operate at wide open throttle. Operate the

throttle just enough to maintain a desired speed.

NOTICE

Excessive throttle operation while in the speed limit mode may cause fuel to

build in the exhaust, resulting in engine popping and/or engine damage.

OPERATION

DRIVING OVER OBSTACLES

Follow these precautions when operating over obstacles:

1. Always check for obstacles before operating in a new area.

2. Look ahead and learn to read the terrain. Be constantly alert for hazards

such as logs, rocks and low hanging branches.

3. Travel slowly and use extra caution when operating on unfamiliar terrain. Not

all obstacles are immediately visible.

4. Never attempt to operate over large obstacles, such as rocks or fallen trees.

5. Always have a passenger dismount before operating over an obstacle that

could cause a fall from the vehicle or vehicle tipover.

OPERATION

PARKING ON AN INCLINE

Avoid parking on an incline if possible. If it's unavoidable, follow these

precautions:

1. Stop the engine.

2. Place the transmission in PARK.

3. Lock the parking brake.

4. Always block the rear wheels on the downhill side.

OPERATION

HAULING CARGO

WARNING

Overloading the vehicle or carrying or towing cargo improperly can alter

vehicle handling and may cause loss of control or brake instability. Always

follow these precautions when hauling cargo.

• Read and understand the load distribution warnings listed on the vehicle

warning labels.

• Never exceed the stated load capacity for this vehicle. When determining

the weight you are adding to the vehicle, include the weight of the operator,

passenger, accessories, loads in the rack or box and the load on the trailer

tongue. The combined weight of these items must not exceed the maximum

weight capacity.

• REDUCE SPEED AND ALLOW GREATER DISTANCES FOR BRAKING

WHEN HAULING CARGO OR TOWING. Use extreme caution when

applying brakes. Avoid situations that require backing downhill.

• WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION on models with front and rear racks should be 1/3

on the front rack and 2/3 on the rear rack. Carrying loads on only one rack

increases the possibility of vehicle overturn.

• CARRY LOADS AS LOW ON THE RACKS AS POSSIBLE. Carrying loads

high on the racks raises the center of gravity of the vehicle and creates a

less stable operating condition.

• SECURE ALL LOADS BEFORE OPERATING. Unsecured loads can create

unstable operating conditions, which could result in loss of control of the

vehicle.

• OPERATE ONLY WITH STABLE AND SAFELY ARRANGED LOADS. When

handling off-centered loads that cannot be centered, securely fasten the

load and operate with extra caution. Always attach the tow load to the hitch

point designated for your vehicle.

• HEAVY LOADS CAN CAUSE BRAKING AND CONTROL PROBLEMS. Use

extreme caution when applying brakes with a loaded vehicle. Avoid terrain

or situations that may require backing downhill.

• USE EXTREME CAUTION when operating with loads that extend over the

rack sides. Stability and maneuverability may be adversely affected, causing

the vehicle to overturn.

• Towing is approved OFF-ROAD ONLY unless your vehicle is approved for

on-road operation.

• TOWING SPEED should never exceed 16 km/h. Never exceed 8 km/h when

towing loads in rough terrain, while cornering, or while ascending or

descending hills.

OPERATION

1. Never exceed the weight capacities specified for your vehicle on warning

labels and in the Specifications section of this manual.

2. On models with front and rear racks, cargo weight should be evenly

distributed ( 2/3 q on the rear and 1/3 w on the front) and mounted as low

as possible.

3. All Models:

NEVER exceed 80 km/h when rear cargo loads are above 34 kg and/or front

cargo loads are above 17 kg.

4. 2–Up Models:

2-Up Models: NEVER exceed 80 km/h while carrying a passenger.

5. X2 Models:

NEVER exceed 16 km/h when rear cargo loads are above 91 kg. Make sure

the cargo box dump latch is securely latched before loading and operating.

Unintentional dumping will result if weight is placed in the rear of the box and

the latch is not secured.

6. When operating over rough or hilly terrain, reduce speed and cargo weight to

maintain stable driving conditions.

7. Do not obstruct the headlight beam with cargo.

8. Use low forward gear when hauling or towing heavy cargo to extend belt life.

9. Always operate the vehicle with extreme caution whenever hauling or towing

loads. Balance, handling, and control may be affected.

OPERATION

TOWING LOADS

Towing is approved OFF-ROAD ONLY unless your vehicle is approved for on-

road operation.

Always attach a towed load to the hitch point. Remove the hitch from the ATV

when not towing a trailer. If towing a load, reduce rear rack cargo weight by the

amount of tongue weight.

• The combination of rear rack cargo weight and tongue weight must not

exceed the rear rack capacity.

• The total load (operator, passenger, accessories, cargo and weight on hitch)

must not exceed the maximum weight capacity of the vehicle.

NOTICE

Using an improper hitch or exceeding the maximum tongue weight capacity

can result in serious damage to the vehicle and will void your ATV warranty.

Never install a hitch longer than 10 cm (4”) q. Never install automotive

accessories on your POLARIS ATV. Always install POLARIS-approved (or

equivalent) accessories designed for ATV use.

DUMPING CARGO (X2)

WARNING

If cargo weight is placed toward the rear of the cargo box, the load may dump

unexpectedly and cause serious injury. When loading cargo, always position

the weight as far forward and as low as possible.

1. Select a level site to dump the cargo box. Do not attempt to dump or unload

the vehicle while parked on an incline.

2. Place the transmission in PARK.

3. Lock the parking brake.

4. Dismount the vehicle.

5. Lower the tailgate.

OPERATION

6. Pull one of the two cargo box release levers q upward.

7. Firmly grasp one of the cargo box handles w and slowly lift the front of the

cargo box to dump the cargo.

WARNING

To prevent a crushing injury to hands and fingers, keep hands and fingers

away from the lower front edge of the cargo box while lowering the box.

8. Lower the cargo box and make sure the release latch is secured.

9. Secure the tailgate.

WARNING

Driving with the cargo box in the raised position can cause serious injury and

damage to the vehicle. The cargo box could close unexpectedly and injure the

driver. The rear tires will also catch the rear of the bed, damaging the vehicle

and creating hazardous driving conditions. Never drive this vehicle with the

cargo box in the raised position. Never leave this vehicle parked or unattended

with the cargo box in the raised position.

synthetic rope. The term “winch cable” will be used for either unless noted

otherwise.

1. Read all sections of this manual.

2. Never use alcohol or drugs before or while operating the winch.

3. Never allow children under 16 years of age to operate the winch.

4. Always wear eye protection and heavy gloves when operating the winch.

5. Always keep body, hair, clothing and jewelry clear of the winch cable, fairlead

and hook when operating winch.

6. Never attempt to “jerk” a load attached to the winch with a moving vehicle.

See the Shock Loading section on page 109.

7. Always keep the area around the vehicle, winch, winch cable, and load clear

of people (especially children) and distractions while operating the winch.

8. Always turn the vehicle ignition power OFF when it and the winch are not

being used.

9. Always be sure that at least five (5) full turns of winch cable are wrapped

around the winch drum at all times. The friction provided by this wrapped

cable allows the drum to pull on the winch cable and move the load.

10. Always apply your vehicle’s park brake and/or park mechanism to hold the

vehicle in place during winching. Use wheel chocks if needed.

11. Always align the vehicle and winch with the load directly in front of the

vehicle as much as possible. Avoid winching with the winch cable at an angle

to the winching vehicle’s centerline whenever possible.

12. If winching at an angle is unavoidable, follow these precautions:

a. Look at the winch drum occasionally. Never let the winch cable “stack” or

accumulate at one end of the winch drum. Too much winch cable at one

end of the winch drum can damage the winch and the winch cable.

101

WINCH GUIDE

b. If stacking occurs, stop winching. Follow step 15 of Winch Operation to

feed and rewind the cable evenly before continuing the winch operation.

13. Never winch up or down at sharp angles. This can destabilize the winching

vehicle and possibly cause it to move without warning.

14. Never attempt to winch loads that weigh more than the winch’s rated

capacity.

15. The winch motor may become hot during winch use. If you winch for more

than 45 seconds, or if the winch stalls during operation, stop winching and

permit the winch to cool down for 10 minutes before using it again.

16. Never touch, push, pull or straddle the winch cable while winching a load.

17. Never let the winch cable run through your hands, even if wearing heavy

gloves.

18. Never release the clutch on the winch when the winch cable is under load.

19. Never use the winch for lifting or transporting people.

20. Never use the winch to hoist or suspend a vertical load.

21. Never immerse or submerse your winch in water. Your dealer can provide

service on your winch if this occurs.

22. Always inspect your winch and winch cable before each use.

23. Never winch the hook fully into the winch. This can cause damage to winch

components.

24. Unplug the remote control from the vehicle when the winch is not in use to

prevent inadvertent activation and use by unauthorized persons.

25. Never grease or oil the winch cable. This will cause the winch cable to collect

debris that will shorten the life of the cable.

102

WINCH GUIDE

WINCH OPERATION

Read the Winch Safety Precautions in the preceding pages before using your

winch.

TIP

Consider practicing the operation and use of your winch before you actually

need to use it in the field.

WARNING

Improper winch use can result in SEVERE INJURY or DEATH. Always follow

all winch instructions and warnings in this manual.

Each winching situation is unique.

• Take your time to think through the winching you are about to do.

• Proceed slowly and deliberately.

• Never hurry or rush during winching.

• Always pay attention to your surroundings.

• You may need to change your winching strategy if it is not working.

• Always remember that your winch is very powerful.

• There are simply some situations that you and your winch will not be able to

deal with. Do not be afraid to ask others to help when this happens.

1. Always inspect the vehicle, winch, winch cable and winch controls for any

signs of damage or parts in need of repair or replacement before each use.

Pay particular attention to the first 3 feet (1 meter) of winch cable if the winch

is being used (or has been used) for lifting an accessory plow assembly.

Promptly replace any worn or damaged cable.

2. Never operate a winch or a vehicle in need of repair or service.

3. Always apply your vehicle’s park brake and/ or park mechanism to hold the

vehicle in place during winching. Use wheel chocks if needed.

103

WINCH GUIDE

4. Always use the hook strap when handling the hook.

WARNING

Never put your fingers into the hook. This could lead to SEVERE INJURY.

• Attach the hook itself onto the load or use a tow strap or chain to secure

the load to the winch cable.

TIP

A “tow strap” is NOT intended to stretch. A “recovery strap” is designed to

stretch.

104

WINCH GUIDE

WARNING

Never use a recovery strap when winching due to the excessive energy that

can be released if the winch cable breaks. This can result in SEVERE INJURY

or DEATH. See the Shock Loading section on page 109.

• Never hook the winch cable back onto itself. This will damage the winch

cable and may result in winch cable failure.

WARNING

Replace the winch cable at the first sign of damage to prevent SEVERE

INJURY or DEATH in the event of failure. For your safety, always replace

POLARIS winch parts (including the cable) with genuine POLARIS

replacement parts available at your authorized POLARIS dealer, or other

qualified dealer.

• If possible, keep the winch cable aligned with the centerline of the

winching vehicle. This will help the spooling of the winch cable and reduce

the load on the fairlead.

• If freeing a stuck vehicle by attaching to a tree, use an item such as a tow

strap to avoid damaging the tree during winch operation. Sharp cables and

chains can damage and even kill trees. Please remember to

TreadLightly® (treadlightly.org).

• Before operating the winch, be sure that the safety latch on the winch

cable hook is fully seated when the load is attached.

• Never operate your winch with a damaged hook or latch. Always replace

damaged parts before using the winch.

5. Never remove the hook strap from the hook.

6. Release the winch clutch and pull out the winch cable.

7. Pulling out as much cable as possible maximizes the winch’s pulling

capacity. Always be sure that at least five (5) full turns of winch cable are

wrapped around the winch drum at all times. The friction provided by this

wrapped cable allows the drum to pull on the winch cable and move the load.

105

WINCH GUIDE

8. Read and adhere to the following information for winch damping to ensure

safe winch use.

a. In order to absorb energy that could be released by a winch cable failure,

always place a “damper” on the winch cable. A damper can be heavy

jacket, tarp, or other soft, dense object. A damper can absorb much of the

energy released if a winch cable breaks when winching. Even a tree limb

can help as a damper if no other items are available to you.

b. Lay the damper on top of the mid-point of the winch cable length that is

spooled out.

c. On a long pull, it may be necessary to stop winching so that the damper

can be repositioned to the new mid-point of the winch cable. Always

release the tension on the winch cable before repositioning the damper.

d. Avoid being directly in line with the winch cable whenever possible. Also,

never permit others to stand near or in line with the winch cable during

winch operation.

9. Never hook the winch cable back onto itself. This will damage the winch

cable and may result in winch cable failure.

10. Never use straps, chains or other rigging items that are damaged or worn.

11. The ONLY time a winch-equipped vehicle should be moving when using the

winch is when that vehicle itself is stuck. The winch equipped vehicle should

NEVER be in motion to “shock” load the winch cable in an attempt to move a

second stuck vehicle. See the Shock Loading section on page 109. For your

safety, always follow these guidelines when winching a vehicle free:

a. Release the winch clutch and spool out the necessary length of winch

cable.

b. Align the winch cable as close as possible to the winching vehicle’s

centerline.

c. Attach the winch cable hook to the anchor point or the stuck vehicle’s

frame following instructions in this manual.

d. Re-engage the clutch on the winch.

e. Slowly winch in the slack in the winch cable.

f. Select the proper vehicle gear to propel the stuck vehicle in the direction

of winching.

g. Shift to the lowest gear available on the stuck vehicle.

h. Slowly and carefully apply vehicle throttle and winch together to free the

vehicle.

i. Stop winching as soon as the stuck vehicle is able to propel itself without

the help of the winch.

106

WINCH GUIDE

j. Detach the winch cable hook.

k. Rewind the winch cable evenly back onto the winch drum following the

instructions in this manual.

12. Never attempt to winch another stuck vehicle by attaching the winch cable to

a suspension component, brush guard, bumper or cargo rack. Vehicle

damage may result. Instead, attach the winch to a strong portion of the

vehicle frame or hitch.

13. Extensive winching will run down the battery on the winching vehicle. Let the

winching vehicle’s engine run while operating the winch to prevent the

battery from running low if winching for long periods.

14. The winch motor may become hot during winch use. If you winch for more

than 45 seconds, or if the winch stalls during operation, stop winching and

permit the winch to cool down for 10 minutes before using it again.

15. After winching is complete, especially if winching at an angle, it may be

necessary to re-distribute the winch cable across the winch drum. You will

need an assistant to perform this task.

a. Release the clutch on the winch.

b. Feed out the winch cable that is unevenly bunched up in one area.

c. Re-engage the winch clutch.

d. Have an assistant pull the winch cable tightly with about 100 lbs. (45 kg)

of tension using the hook strap.

e. Slowly winch the cable in while your assistant moves the end of the winch

cable back and forth horizontally to evenly distribute the winch cable on

the drum.

f. Doing this reduces the chances of the winch cable “wedging” itself

between lower layers of winch cable.

107

WINCH GUIDE

WINCH CABLE CARE

WARNING

Use of worn or damaged cable could lead to sudden failure and SEVERE

INJURY.

For your safety, always replace POLARIS winch parts (including the cable) with

genuine POLARIS replacement parts available at your authorized POLARIS

dealer, or other qualified person.

1. Always inspect your winch before each use. Inspect for worn or loose parts

including mounting hardware. Never use the winch if any part needs repair or

replacement.

2. Always inspect your winch cable before each use. Inspect for worn or kinked

winch cable.

A kinked winch cable made of wire rope

is shown at right. Even after being

“straightened out,” this cable has

already been permanently and severely

damaged. Promptly discontinue use of

a winch cable in this condition.

A kinked winch cable made of wire rope

that has been “straightened out” is

shown at right. Even though it may look

usable, the cable has been permanently

and severely damaged. It can no longer

transmit the load that it could prior to

kinking. Promptly discontinue use of a

winch cable in this condition.

A winch cable made of synthetic rope

should be inspected for signs of fraying.

Replace the cable if fraying is observed

(shown below). Promptly discontinue

use of a winch cable in this condition.

Also replace the winch cable if there are

fused or melted fibers. Such an area of

the synthetic rope will be stiff and

appear smooth or glazed. Promptly

discontinue use of a winch cable in this

condition.

108

WINCH GUIDE

SHOCK LOADING

WARNING

Your winch cable is very strong but it is NOT designed for dynamic, or “shock”

loading. Shock loading may tension a winch cable beyond its strength and

cause the cable to break. The end of a broken winch cable under such high

loading can cause SEVERE INJURY or DEATH to you and other bystanders.

Winch cables are designed to NOT absorb energy. This is true of both wire-rope

and synthetic-rope winch cables.

1. Never attempt to “jerk” a load with the winch. For example, never take up

slack in the winch cable by moving the winching vehicle in an attempt to

move an object. This is a dangerous practice. It generates high winch cable

loads that may exceed the strength of the cable. Even a slowly moving

vehicle can create large shock loads in a winch cable.

WARNING

SEVERE INJURY or DEATH can result from a broken winch cable.

2. Never quickly turn the winch ON and OFF repeatedly (“jogging”). This puts

extra load on the winch, winch cable, and generates excessive heat from the

motor. This is a form of shock loading.

3. Never tow a vehicle or other object with your winch. Towing an object with a

winch produces shock loading of the cable even when towing at slow

speeds. Towing from a winch also positions the towing force high on the

vehicle. This can cause instability of the vehicle and possibly lead to an

accident.

4. Never use recovery straps with your winch. Recovery straps are designed to

stretch and can store energy. This stored energy in the recovery strap is

released if a winch cable fails making the event even more hazardous.

Similarly, never use elastic “bungie” cords for winching.

5. Never use the winch to tie down a vehicle to a trailer or other transportation

vehicle. This type of use also causes shock loading that can cause damage

to the winch, winch cable, or vehicles used.

Your winch cable is designed and tested to withstand the loads produced

by the winch motor when operated from a stationary vehicle. Always

remember that the winch and winch cable are NOT designed for shock

109

WINCH GUIDE

WINCH MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE SAFETY

WARNING

Improper or lack of winch maintenance and service could lead to SEVERE

INJURY or DEATH. Always follow all winch instructions and warnings in this

manual.

1. Always inspect your winch before each use. Inspect for worn or kinked winch

cable. Also inspect for worn or loose parts including mounting hardware.

2. Permit your winch motor to cool down prior to servicing your winch.

3. Never work on your winch without first disconnecting the battery connections

to prevent accidental activation of the winch.

4. For your safety, always replace POLARIS winch parts (including the cable)

with genuine POLARIS replacement parts available at your authorized

POLARIS dealer, or other qualified person.

5. Some winch models use wire rope as the winch cable. Other winches use a

specially designed synthetic rope as the winch cable.

6. Never replace a synthetic-rope winch cable with a consumer-grade polymer

rope such as can be purchased in a hardware store. Although they may look

similar, they are NOT alike. A polymer rope not designed for winch use will

stretch and store excessive energy when winching.

WARNING

Failure of a stretched rope under winching conditions will release all of the

stored energy. This will increase the chances of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH.
