GENERAL OPERATION
WARNING
All PVT maintenance or repairs should be performed by
a certified Polaris Master Service Dealer (MSD)
technician who has received the proper training and
understands the procedures outlined in this manual.
Because of the critical nature and precision
balance incorporated into the PVT components, it is
absolutely essential that no disassembly or repair
be made without factory authorized special tools
and service procedures.
The Polaris Variable Transmission (PVT) consists of
three major assemblies:
1) The Drive Clutch
2) The Driven Clutch
3) The Drive Belt
The internal components of the drive clutch and driven
clutch control engagement (initial vehicle movement),
clutch upshift and backshift. During vehicle development,
the PVT system is matched first to the engine power
curve; then to average riding conditions and the vehicle's
intended usage. Therefore, modifications or variations of
components at random are never recommended. Proper
clutch setup and careful inspection of existing
components must be the primary objective when
troubleshooting and tuning.
