Regular maintenance includes checking and changing the engine oil, inspecting the air filter, checking tire pressure, lubricating the chassis, and inspecting brake pads. Refer to the user manual for specific intervals and procedures.
If your MV700 won't start, check the battery connections, ensure the fuel valve is on, inspect the spark plug, and verify that the kill switch is in the 'run' position. If problems persist, consult a professional mechanic.
Check the coolant levels, ensure that the radiator is not clogged, and verify that the cooling fan is functioning. If these components are in order and the issue persists, a professional diagnosis may be required.
Polaris recommends using their branded engine oil specifically formulated for ATVs. Check your user manual for the correct viscosity rating and specifications.
To adjust the drive belt tension, locate the belt tensioner and follow the adjustment procedure detailed in the owner's manual. Improper tension can lead to slippage or premature wear.
Remove the air filter, wash it with warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and allow it to dry completely. Lightly oil the filter before reinstalling it. Ensure it is seated correctly to prevent dust ingress.
To change the spark plug, remove the spark plug cap, unscrew the old plug using a spark plug wrench, install the new spark plug, and reconnect the spark plug cap. Ensure the new plug is properly gapped.
If the brakes feel spongy, inspect the brake fluid levels and check for air in the brake lines. Bleeding the brake system might be necessary to remove any air that has entered.
For long-term storage, clean the vehicle, change the oil, add fuel stabilizer, elevate the ATV to relieve tire pressure, and disconnect the battery. Store in a dry, covered area to prevent weather damage.
Loss of power can be caused by clogged air filters, dirty fuel injectors, or a worn drive belt. Inspect these components and clean or replace them as necessary. Persistent issues should be evaluated by a professional.
