MAINTENANCE POLARIS Variable Transmission (PVT) System Belt Replacement/Debris Removal If a belt fails, always clean any debris from the PVT intake and outlet duct and from the clutch and engine compartments when replacing the belt. WARNING! Failure to remove ALL debris when replacing the belt could result in vehicle damage, loss of control and severe injury or death. 1. Allow hot components to cool before performing this procedure. 2. Remove the clutch cover screws and open the clutch cover. Remove all debris wrapped in and around the PVT system. 3. Remove all debris from the entire clutch air duct passage. 4. Check for signs of damage to seals on the transmission and engine. If any seals appear to be damaged, your vehicle requires prompt service that your POLARIS dealer can provide. Tip: Belt slip is responsible for creating excessive heat that destroys belts, wears clutch components and causes outer clutch covers to fail. Switch to low range while operating at slower speeds to extend the life of the PVT components (belt, cover, etc.). 104
