MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION

Engine Cooling System (Magnum 500)

Coolant Level

The recovery bottle (1) is located on the

left side of the machine. To access the

recovery bottle, remove the left side

panel. See page 120.

The fluid level m ust be maintained

between the minimum and maximum

marks on the bottle (when the fluid i s

cool).

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.

As coolant operating temperature increases, the expanding (heated)

excess coolant is forced out of the radiator, past the pressure cap, and

into the recovery bottle. As engine coolant temperature decreases, t he

contracting (cooled) coolant is drawn back up from the tank, past the

pressure cap, and into the radiator.

NOTE: Some coolant level drop on new machines is normal, as the

system is purging itself of trapped air. Observe coolant levels and

maintain as recommended by adding coolant to the recovery bottle.

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. S ee page 130 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.
