Maintenance Track Lubrication ADULT SECTION Track failure, loss of vehicle control and braking ability can result from extended use of this vehicle on surfaces providing marginal lubrication between the slider and track guide clips. Examples of marginal lubrication would include lakes without snow cover, icy trails and no-snow conditions. The slide rail is designed to operate in conditions with adequate snow cover in order to provide sufficient lubrication. Excessive wear indicates insufficient lubrication. A new slider can cause faster heat build up in limited lubrication than a used slider, resulting in excessive wear. NOTE: Track damage or failure caused by operation on ice or poor lubrication conditions may void the track warranty. Steering System WARNING Improper alignment or adjustment may cause loss of steering control, resulting in serious injury or death. Do not attempt to change the ski alignment. Contact your Polaris dealer. The steering systems on Polaris snowmobiles can be adjusted with ski toe alignment. Improper toe alignment can cause erratic steering. Consult your dealer if a need for adjustment should become necessary. 75

Maintenance
Track Lubrication
Track failure, loss of vehicle control and braking ability can result from
extended use of this vehicle on surfaces providing marginal lubrication
between the slider and track guide clips. Examples of marginal
lubrication would include lakes without snow cover, icy trails and
no-snow conditions.
The slide rail is designed to operate in conditions with adequate snow
cover in order to provide sufficient lubrication. Excessive wear
indicates insufficient lubrication. A new slider can cause faster heat
build up in limited lubrication than a used slider, resulting in excessive
wear.
NOTE:
Track damage or failure caused by operation on ice or poor
lubrication conditions may void the track warranty.
Steering System
WARNING
Improper alignment or adjustment may cause loss of steering
control, resulting in serious injury or death. Do not attempt to
change the ski alignment. Contact your Polaris dealer.
The steering systems on Polaris snowmobiles can be adjusted with ski
toe alignment. Improper toe alignment can cause erratic steering.
Consult your dealer if a need for adjustment should become necessary.
