2001 Polaris 600 Pro X Snowmobile Parts Manual (P/N 9916885)

• Exact model and document coverage: Covers the 2001 Polaris 600 Pro X, model S01NX6ES, in Polaris Parts Manual P/N 9916885. The 44-page PDF contains 40 numbered catalog pages: 38 illustrated pages and two continuation parts-list pages.
• Chassis and body breakdowns: Maps the tunnel/bulkhead, seat and fuel tank, nosepan, hood, headlight and instruments, console, main wire harness, decals, and under-hood foil and foam.
• Steering, front suspension, and brake parts: Identifies the steering rack, tie rods, pitman and idler arms, handlebar controls, skis and skags, trailing arms, radius rods, torsion bar, brake master cylinder, caliper, pads, seals, and service kits.
• Drivetrain and rear suspension coverage: Separates the chaincase, jackshaft, drive shaft, belt, brake disc, track, rails, wheels, pivot hardware, front and rear torque arms, limiter straps, and standard or optional torsion springs.
• Dedicated clutch plates: Breaks down the drive and driven clutch assemblies into weights, rollers, springs, cam and ramp parts, guide buttons, bushings, shims, washers, and complete basic-assembly references.
• Engine and supporting systems: Provides individual views for the short block, crankcase, cylinders and exhaust valves, pistons and crankshaft, water and oil pumps, carburetors, airbox, fuel routing, cooling hoses, tuned exhaust, magneto/CDI, and recoil starter.
• Ryde FX shock internals: Includes separate exploded views for the left- and right-hand IFS shocks plus the front- and rear-track shocks, with reservoirs, braided hoses, IFPs, pistons, clickers, pressure valves, seals, bushings, and mounting parts.

This factory catalog is built for exact component identification on the S01NX6ES rather than generic 600-class coverage. It is suited to technicians, restoration shops, and experienced owners who already understand snowmobile service work and need model-specific OEM callouts before teardown, parts ordering, or repair planning.

What the Parts Tables Show

Each exploded view is tied to a reference table with the original Polaris part number, required quantity, and factory description. Included-reference notes show what belongs to larger assemblies and kits, including the master cylinder and caliper, jackshaft and drive shaft, recoil starter, piston kits, crankshaft kit, and clutch assemblies. The engine page identifies short block build S-60-44-01 and defines it as the crankcase, cylinder/cylinder-head, and piston/crankshaft assemblies.

The carburetor section is equally specific about replaceable hardware. It maps the paired carburetor assembly, jet needle, main, pilot, starter, and air-pilot jets, floats, starter linkage, water-trap hoses, check valves, and MAG-side sensor. The table lists one main-jet specification for both carburetors; it does not contain separate PTO and MAG main-jet charts or carburetor tuning procedures.

Several ordering details help prevent an avoidable mismatch. The ignition-key cap must match the A-E letter code on the switch body, with the key cap's dot count identifying the corresponding code. The clutch plates distinguish multiple as-required spacer and washer thicknesses, while the rear-suspension table separates standard and optional left- and right-hand torsion springs. The onboard tool-kit plate identifies the scissor-stop wrench, special box wrench, emergency starter strap, and the model-specific owner's-manual supplement.

Publication and Scope Notes

The cover and back page identify Parts Manual P/N 9916885, companion Microfiche P/N 9916886, and an original issue date of November 2000. Individual replacement pages in this PDF carry later dates through December 2002. Polaris also cautions that part numbers may have changed since the microfiche was issued and directs users to the current electronic catalog before ordering.

This is a parts catalog, not a repair or assembly manual. Polaris explicitly states that its illustrations are for replacement-parts reference only and are not to be used for assembly. It does not provide step-by-step removal, installation, adjustment, or overhaul instructions; torque tables; service limits; wiring diagrams; diagnostic tests; or troubleshooting charts.

That limit matters around the clutches and shocks. The drive and driven clutch tables show selectable, as-required shims and washers rather than a universal stack, so treating callout order as an assembly specification can produce an incorrect setup and risk damage to the belt or clutch surfaces. The Ryde FX plates identify gas/IFP internals and pressure-valve parts but give no depressurization or rebuild sequence; opening these units without the correct service procedure and equipment can release stored pressure or damage seals and shafts. Use the appropriate factory service information and qualified help for critical brake, fuel, clutch, and pressurized-shock repair work.
