OPERATION Break-In Period The break-in period for your new Polaris snowmobile is the first 500 miles (800 km) of operation. No single action on your part is as important as following the procedures for a proper break-in. Careful treatment of a new engine and drive components will result in more efficient performance and longer life for these components. NOTICE: Excessive heat build-up during the first 500 miles (800 km) of operation will damage close-fitting engine parts. Do not operate at full throttle or high speeds for extended periods during the break-in period. Use of non-recommended oil may cause serious engine damage. Always use the recommended oil for your Polaris snowmobile. 1. Fill the fuel tank with the recommended fuel. See page 78. 2. Check the oil level in the oil tank. See page 90. Add oil if necessary to maintain at the recommended level. 3. Drive slowly at first. Vary the throttle positions. Do not operate at sustained idle. 4. Perform regular checks on fluid levels, controls and areas outlined on the daily pre-ride inspection checklist. See page 64. 5. During the break-in period, change both the oil and the filter at 500 miles or before seasonal storage, whichever comes first. 72

OPERATION
Break-In Period
The break-in period for your new Polaris snowmobile is the first 500
miles (800 km) of operation. No single action on your part is as impor-
tant as following the procedures for a proper break-in. Careful treatment
of a new engine and drive components will result in more efficient per-
formance and longer life for these components.
NOTICE:
Excessive heat build-up during the first 500 miles (800 km) of
operation will damage close-fitting engine parts. Do not operate at full
throttle or high speeds for extended periods during the break-in
period.
Use of non-recommended oil may cause serious engine damage.
Always use the recommended oil for your Polaris snowmobile.
1.
Fill the fuel tank with the recommended fuel. See page 78.
2.
Check the oil level in the oil tank. See page 90. Add oil if necessary
to maintain at the recommended level.
3.
Drive slowly at first. Vary the throttle positions. Do not operate at
sustained idle.
4.
Perform regular checks on fluid levels, controls and areas outlined
on the daily pre-ride inspection checklist. See page 64.

During the break-in period, change both the oil and the filter at 500
miles or before seasonal storage, whichever comes first.
