Accessories MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION Auxiliary power outlets provide 12V power for operating accessories such as hand held spot lights. Accessory outlets are available for all models. Contact your Polaris dealer for more information. Polaris has a wide range of additional accessories available for your ATV. See your Polaris dealer. Periodic Maintenance Schedule Careful periodic maintenance will help keep your vehicle in the safest, most reliable condition. Inspection, adjustment and lubrication of important components are explained in the periodic maintenance schedule. Some models are equipped with a speedometer that has a programmable service interval mode. This important feature will help you determine when maintenance service is due. See page 54 for instructions. Maintenance intervals in the following charts are based upon average riding conditions and an average vehicle speed of approximately 10 miles per hour. Vehicles subjected to severe use, such as operation in wet or dusty areas, should be inspected and serviced more frequently. Inspect, clean, lubricate, adjust and replace parts as necessary. When inspection reveals the need for replacement parts, use genuine Polaris parts available from your Polaris dealer. NOTE: Service and adjustments are critical. If you're not familiar with safe service and adjustment procedures, have a qualified dealer perform these operations. Maintenance Chart Key " Perform these operations more often under severe use, such as in dirty or wet conditions, to purge water or dirt contamination from grease fittings and other critical components. L Emission Control System Service (California - 4-Cycle) NOTE: Some 4-Cycle models may have an additional California -only emissions warranty. Please refer to your owner's manual supplement for model specific information. J Dealer service item. 75
