MAINTENANCE

Carburetor Water/Sediment Trap (600 RMK)

Most Polaris snowmobiles contain patented carburetor bowl water/sedi-

ment traps located at the bottom of each carburetor. The trap, consisting

of a hose with a plug, should be drained about every 1000 miles (1600

km) and inspected for contamination.

Cleaning Procedure

1. Turn the fuel valve off.

2. Place a container or shop

towels below the plug to

catch drained fuel.

3. Slide the clamp away from

the drain plug and remove

the drain plug from the sedi-

ment tube.

4. Wipe residue from the plug

and reinstall it. Reposition

and tighten the clamp.

5. Repeat the draining proce-

dure for any remaining traps.

WARNING

When draining the traps, fuel spillage will occur. Always work in a well venti-

lated area away from anything that may cause the fuel to ignite, such as open

flames, sparks, heaters, trouble lights, cigarettes, etc. Review the fuel warn-

ings on page 60.
