Draining Fuel from the Fuel Tank and Carburetor
Petrol is highly flammable and explosive and can cause serious injury.
Stop the engine and keep heat, sparks, and flame away. Handle fuel only
outdoors. Wipe up spills immediately.
Do not spill fuel when draining the fuel tank. Spilled fuel is a fire hazard,
causes environmental damage, and can cause damage to paint and
plastic. Wipe up spills immediately.
Note: This procedure applies if fuel will NOT be kept in the fuel tank during
storage or before transportation.
1. Access the fuel tank. See page 60.
2. Empty the fuel tank into an approved petrol container. POLARIS
recommends using a commercially available petrol hand pump to
empty the tank. Do not use an electric pump.
3. Re-install the fuel tank strainer into the fuel tank.
4. Securely tighten fuel tank cap until it clicks.
5. Open the service door. See page 46.
6. Turn fuel valve lever to ON
and then loosen the carburetor
drain screw (A).
7. Drain the petrol from the
carburetor (B) and into a
suitable container.
