MAINTENANCE General Maintenance Fuel Filter/Fuel Lines CAUTION The in-tank fuel filter (1) and fuel lines should be inspected regularly. Give special attention to the system's fuel line condition after periods of storage. Normal deterioration from weather and fuel compounds may occur. Do not use pliers or a similar tool to remove fuel lines as damage may occur. Do not kink the fuel line as damage may occur. If a fuel line has been damaged or kinked, replace it promptly. Oil Filter The oil filter should be changed annually or every 1200 miles (1920 km). Inspect oil line condition at 2000 miles (3200 km). Polaris oil filters are specially designed for use on Polaris products. Use only Polaris replacement parts. Edge models use an oil filter (3) that's built into the oil sending unit located in the bottom of the oil tank. After changing the oil filter, bleed the oil injection system of all trapped air. See your dealer for instructions, or have your dealer perform the filter change and bleeding operation for you. NOTE: The direction of the arrows indicates the direction of flow through the filters. See page 77 for oil recommendations. 1 2 117
