BRAKE SYSTEM SERVICE NOTES
Disc brake systems are light weight, low maintenance, and perform well in the conditions this vehicle will routinely encounter. There are a few things to remember when replacing disc brake pads or performing brake system service to ensure proper system function and maximum pad service life.
• Optional pads are available to suit conditions in your area. Select a pad to fit riding style and environment.
• DO NOT over-fill the master cylinder fluid reservoir.
• Make sure the brake pedal returns freely and completely.
• Adjust stop pin on front caliper after pad service.
• Check and adjust master cylinder reservoir fluid level after pad service.
• Make sure atmospheric vent on reservoir is unobstructed.
• Test for brake drag after any brake system service and investigate cause if brake drag is evident.
• Make sure caliper moves freely on guide pins (where applicable).
• Inspect caliper piston seals for foreign material that could prevent caliper pistons from returning freely.
• Perform a brake burnishing procedure after installing new pads to maximize service life.
• DO NOT lubricate or clean the brake components with aerosol or petroleum products. Use only approved brake cleaning products.
BRAKE NOISE TROUBLESHOOTING
Dirt or dust buildup on the brake pads and disc is the most common cause of brake noise (squeal caused by vibration).
If cleaning does not reduce the occurrence of brake noise, Permatex™ Disc Brake Quiet can be applied to the back of the pads. Follow directions on the package. This will keep pads in contact with caliper piston(s) to reduce the chance of squeaks caused by dirt or dust.
Possible Cause
Caliper piston(s) not returning
Operator error (riding the brake)
Loose wheel hub or bearings
Brake disc warped or excessively worn
Brake disc misaligned or loose
Wrong pad for conditions
Brake Noise Troubleshooting
Dirt, dust, or imbedded material on pads or disc
Pad(s) dragging on disc (noise or premature pad wear) because of improper adjustment
Master cylinder reservoir overfilled
Master cylinder compensating port restricted
Master cylinder piston not returning completely
Noise is from other source (axle, hub, disc or wheel)
Remedy
Spray disc and pads with CRC Brakeleen™ or an equivalent non-flammable aerosol brake cleaner. Remove pads and/or disc hub to clean imbedded material from disc or pads.
Adjust pad stop (front calipers)
Set to proper level
Clean compensating port
Inspect. Repair as necessary
Clean piston(s) seal
Educate operator
Check wheel and hub for abnormal movement.
Replace disc
Inspect and repair as necessary
If noise does not change when brake is applied check other sources. Inspect and repair as necessary
Change to a softer or harder pad

BRAKES
HYDRAULIC BRAKE SYSTEM OPERATION
The Polaris brake system consists of the following components or assemblies: brake pedal, master cylinder, hydraulic brake lines, brake calipers, brake pads, and brake discs, which are secured to the drive line.
When the foot activated brake lever is applied it applies pressure on the piston within the master cylinder. As the master cylinder piston moves inward it closes a small opening (compensating port) within the cylinder and starts to build pressure within the brake system. As the pressure within the system is increased, the pistons located in the brake calipers move outward and apply pressure to the moveable brake pads. These pads contact the brake discs and move the calipers in their floating bracket, pulling the stationary side pads into the brake discs. The resulting friction reduces brake disc and vehicle speed.
The friction applied to the brake pads will cause the pads to wear. As these pads wear, the piston within the caliper moves further outward and becomes self adjusting. Fluid from the reservoir fills the additional area created when the caliper piston moves outward.
Brake fluid level is critical to proper system operation. Too little fluid will allow air to enter the system and cause the brakes to feel spongy. Too much fluid could cause brakes to drag due to fluid expansion.
Located within the master cylinder is the compensating port which is opened and closed by the master cylinder piston assembly. As the temperature within the hydraulic system changes, this port compensates for fluid expansion or contraction. Due to the high temperatures created within the system during heavy braking, it is very important that the master cylinder reservoir have adequate space to allow for fluid expansion. Never overfill the reservoir! Do not fill the
reservoir beyond the MAX LEVEL line!
When servicing Polaris brake systems use only Polaris DOT 4 Brake Fluid (PN 2872189). WARNING: Once a bottle is opened, use what is necessary and discard the rest in accordance with local laws. Do not store or use a partial bottle of brake fluid. Brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it rapidly absorbs moisture. This causes the boiling temperature of the brake fluid to drop, which can lead to early brake fade and the possibility of serious injury.

“Parking Brake Caliper Service” procedure for brake pad replacement information.
1.
Pull back on the parking brake lever (located in the dash).
2.
After 3 clicks the “(P)” brake light should illuminate on the instrument cluster and the wheels of the vehicle should not rotate when turning by hand. After 8 full clicks of lever travel, the vehicle should not roll while parked.

Cable Tension Adjustment
When the parking brake is fully engaged and the parking brake indicator is illuminated, engine speed is limited to
1300 RPM in all gears, including neutral. If throttle is applied, this limiting feature prevents operation, which protects the parking brake pads from excessive wear.
NOTE: Inspect the parking brake cable tension after the first 25 hours of operation and every 100 hours of operation afterwards to ensure proper cable tension.

Cable Adjustment
Loss of tension in the parking brake cable will cause illumination of the parking brake light and activation of the limiting feature. If this occurs, inspect and adjust parking brake cable tension. If performing this service is difficult due to conditions or location, open the hood and temporarily disconnect the parking brake connector.
Reconnect parking brake connector as soon as it is practical and adjust parking brake cable to proper tension.

Disassemble and add shims between thrust washer and the inside brake pad as needed to close the gap to .203” - .193” (5.16 - 4.90 mm). For shim location, see Figure 9.12 on page 12.
Add shims until gap measures .203”-.193”

Brake Burnishing Procedure
It is required that a burnishing procedure be performed after installation of new brake pads to extend service life and reduce noise.
Start machine and slowly increase speed to 30 mph.
Gradually apply brakes to stop machine. Allow pads and disc to cool sufficiently during the procedure. Do not allow pads or disc to become hot or warping may result.
Repeat this procedure 10 times. Do not make more
than 3 stops per 1 mile (1.6 km).
