Like any other vehicle, you need to ensure that regular maintenance is done to keep the vehicle in optimum working condition. That is why you need to regularly change the oil in your Polaris Ranger.
Experts recommend that you change the oil every 3,000 miles. Here are simple steps that will teach you how to change oil in a Polaris Ranger.
- The first thing that you have to do is to park the vehicle on a level surface.
- Run the engine for two to three minutes and then stop. This is done to heat the oil as hot oil comes out faster than cold oil.
- Remove the oil filler cap and the dipstick.
- Now slide under the vehicle and locate the oil drain plug. If you do not know the location, check the owner's manual.
- Remove the drain plug and place the oil drip pan under the plug to catch the hot oil. Be careful during this stage as you can get burned with the hot oil.
- Allow 10 to 15 minutes for the oil to drain out completely.
- Check the oil drain plug gasket. If it is cracked or scratched, replace it.
- Now replace the plug and tighten it. Use your hands to tighten it. If you are unable to use your hands, then use a socket wrench to tighten the plug to 14 torque.
- Now move to the oil filter. Use an oil filter wrench to turn the filter counter clockwise to remove it.
- Once again, let the oil drain out.
- Now take a clean rag and clean the oil filter cover and the surface on the crankcase.
- Check the cover to make sure that O-ring is still in a good condition.
- Replace the cover.
- Now go under the hood and fill the oil tank with around 2 quarts of oil.
- Start the engine and put gear in neutral. Check for leaks.
- Use the dipstick to check the oil level. If necessary add more oil to bring it to the full mark.
- Remove the jack supports and you are ready to take your Polaris Ranger for a spin.
