2006 Polaris Sportsman 700 EFI / 800 EFI Owner's Manual

The 2006 Polaris Sportsman 700 EFI and 800 EFI models require exact adherence to factory maintenance schedules. This 124-page official Polaris publication (P/N 9920028, Rev 02) delivers the technical breakdowns needed for routine service, fluid changes, and safe operation of these adult-only ATVs. Instead of guessing torque specs or fluid capacities, it provides the direct OEM tables and diagnostic charts.

Vehicle Maintenance and Specifications

Proper maintenance intervals keep the Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) and All Wheel Drive (AWD) systems running reliably. This manual breaks down the required lubrication and inspection schedules. It clearly defines severe-use conditions that trigger more frequent service for critical driveline components. You will also find detailed outlines of the transmission gear selector mechanism. Before turning a wrench, always ensure you use safe shop practices and consult the full OEM literature to prevent equipment damage or personal injury. The text also details how factory workshop documentation is structured to assist owners in identifying when professional dealer intervention is required for major repairs.

Technical Data Preview

Need exact numbers? Specification tables list the recommended 5 psi tire pressure for front and rear tires. Engine oil levels are checked using the dipstick, with the capacity documented at 2 quarts (1.9 l). Driveline fluid changes are explicitly mapped out: the transmission requires 15 oz (450 ml) of AGL lubricant, while the front and rear gearcases take 5 oz (150 ml) each. You also get critical torque specs, such as the 18 ft. lbs. (24 Nm) required for the spark plugs. For troubleshooting, the electronic diagnostic mode provides specific blink codes. This lets you quickly identify system faults like engine temperature sensor circuit failures or fuel injector issues.
