Cooling System

The engine coolant level is maintained by a remote pressurized tank system. The remote pressurized tank is connected to both radiators and provides a single pressure cap and fill point for the vehicle.
The pressure tank is designed to contain a volume of air above the coolant level. As coolant operating temperature increases the coolant level in the pressure tank will rise and push out air past the pressure cap. As the engine coolant temperature decreases the coolant level in the pressure tank will lower and draw air back into the tank through the pressure cap.
TIP
Some coolant level drop on new vehicles is normal as the system is purging itself of trapped air. Observe coolant levels and maintain cold coolant level as recommended by adding coolant to the pressure tank.
caution
Escaping steam can cause burns. Never remove the pressure cap while the engine is warm or hot. Always allow the engine to cool before removing the pressure cap.

Adding or Changing Coolant

POLARIS recommends the use of POLARIS Antifreeze 50/50 Premix. This antifreeze is already premixed and ready to use. Do not dilute with water. See the Polaris Products section for the part numbers.
To ensure that the coolant maintains its ability to protect the engine, we recommend that the system be completely drained every five (5) years and fresh Antifreeze 50/50 Premix added.
Any time the cooling system has been drained for maintenance or repair, replace the coolant with fresh Antifreeze 50/50 Premix.

Radiators and Cooling Fan

Always check and clean the screens and radiator fins at the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart section. Do not obstruct or deflect air flow through the radiators by installing unauthorized accessories in front of the radiators or behind the cooling fan. Interference with radiator air flow can lead to overheating and consequent engine damage.
NOTICE
Washing the vehicle with a high-pressure hose could damage radiator fins and impair a radiator's effectiveness. Using a high-pressure system is not recommended.

Radiator Coolant Level / Changing Coolant

This procedure is required only if the cooling system has been drained for maintenance and/or repair.

caution
Escaping steam can cause burns. Never remove the pressure cap while the engine is warm or hot. Always allow the engine to cool before removing the pressure cap.
  1. Remove the hood. See Hood.
  2. Slowly remove the radiator pressure cap
  3. View the coolant level through the side of the pressure tank.
  4. Use a funnel and slowly add coolant as needed.
  5. Before reinstalling the pressure cap, bleed the system of trapped air. Locate the coolant bleed screw on the engine above the exhaust head pipe on the power take- off side. Use a socket wrench to turn the bleed screw slightly, allowing the air to escape. Slowly add additional coolant to the pressure tank until air no longer escapes and only coolant flows from the bleed hole, then tighten the bleed screw.
  6. Reinstall the pressure cap.
TIP
Use of a non-standard pressure cap will not allow the recovery system to function properly. Your POLARIS dealer can provide the correct replacement part.

Pressure Tank Coolant Level

Always check and change the coolant at the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on Maintenance Chart Tables. Maintain the coolant level within one inch (2.5 cm) of the cold full mark on the side of the pressure tank (when the fluid is cool).
  1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.
  2. Remove the hood. See Hood.
  3. View the coolant level through the side of the pressure tank.
    caution
    Escaping steam can cause burns. Never remove the pressure cap while the engine is warm or hot. Always allow the engine to cool before removing the pressure cap.
  4. Remove the pressure cap and use a funnel to add coolant as needed. Maintain the coolant level within one inch (2.5 cm) of the cold full mark on the side of the pressure tank (when the fluid is cool).
  5. Reinstall the pressure cap.
TIP
If coolant must be added often, or if the pressure tank runs completely dry, there may be a leak in the system. Your POLARIS dealer can inspect the cooling system.
