• Page 77: Fuel Recommendations

  Fuel System Deicers If you use non-ethanol fuel (sometimes labeled “non- oxygenated”), Polaris recommends the regular use of a 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.

• Page 78: Service Precautions

  IMPORTANT necessary to tap the part into place, use a soft face hammer and tap lightly. Polaris recommends the use of Polaris lubricants and greases, which have been specially formulated for the top performance and best protection of our machines.
