MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION Engine Cooling System The engine coolant level is controlled or maintained by the recovery system. The recovery system components are the recovery bottle, radiator filler neck, radiator pressure cap and connecting hose. To ensure that the coolant maintains its ability to protect the engine, we recommend that you completely drain the cooling system every two years and add a fresh mixture of antifreeze and water. Polaris recommends the use of Polaris Premium 60/40 anti-freeze/coolant or a 50/50 mixture of high quality aluminum compatible anti-freeze/coolant and distilled water. See page 175 for the part numbers of Polaris products. NOTE: Polaris Premium 60/40 is already premixed and ready to use. Do not dilute with water. NOTE: Always follow the manufacturer's mixing recommendations for the freeze protection required in your area. 114
