9923943 - 2012-2013 POLARIS EV - LSV Service Manual
SPECIAL INFORMATION
REGARDING THE RANGER EV /
POLARIS EV-LSV
Operating The RANGER EV / POLARIS EV-
LSV
If you are not familiar with the controls, features, or safe
operation of RANGER EV / POLARIS EV-LSV vehicles,
read the Owner’s Manual thoroughly before you operate
the vehicle.
If you are an experienced RANGER EV / POLARIS EV-
LSV technician and have read and become familiar with
safe vehicle operation, a basic description of the switches
and controls unique to the RANGER EV / POLARIS EV-
LSV is included in this manual (See “FEATURES AND
CONTROLS” on page 1.10).
Working On The RANGER EV / POLARIS EV-
LSV
Improper contact between battery terminals can result in
electrical shorts. Electrical shorts can result in burns.
The RANGER EV / POLARIS EV-LSV is equipped with
eight 12-volt lead/acid batteries arranged in two banks of
four batteries each. Each bank of batteries delivers 48
volts to a high efficiency AC induction motor via the motor
controller unit and a key switch-controlled main contactor.
Batteries, controller, and contactor are located under the
seat. Here are a few key differences to remember when
working on the RANGER EV / POLARIS EV-LSV.
48 VOLT FUSES AND RELAYS
Be aware that some of the fuses and relays on the
RANGER EV / POLARIS EV-LSV are 48 volt; they may
look similar to their 12 volt counterparts, but they are not
the same and must not be substituted with other types.
The fuse voltage and current rating is clearly marked on
the fuse box label. Refer to Chapter 8 of this manual
(Electrical) for more information and diagnostics for
electrical system components. Battery information is in
this chapter (Chapter 1).
GENERAL SAFETY REMINDERS
Wear the proper protective gear. Shield your eyes when
working on the RANGER EV / POLARIS EV-LSV.
Working on or around lead-acid batteries can be
dangerous if you do not take precautions and follow proper
handling, charging, and service procedures while you
work. Read the entire BATTERY SAFETY section of this
manual.
Remove all jewelry or metal objects that could come in
contact with battery terminals as you work in or around the
battery compartment; including (but not limited to):
• Rings, chains, wrist watches, bracelets, etc.
If battery access is not required for the task at hand, keep
storage trays and the seat in place to reduce the chance
of a dropped tool or other conductive object making
contact with the battery cables or terminals.
THE MAIN POWER CONNECTOR / BATTERY
CHARGER
Some service procedures require special precautionary
steps to reduce the chance of electrical shorts and avoid
damage to expensive components. Always read and
understand the entire procedure and be sure you have the
proper tools and equipment before you begin. DO NOT
disconnect or work on any electrical component without
first disconnecting the Main Power Connector
(page 1.19). DO NOT work on the vehicle with the battery
charger connected.
RANGER EV / POLARIS EV-LSV “FLOATING” CHASSIS
The RANGER EV / POLARIS EV-LSV frame and other
chassis components ARE NOT used as a conductor
(ground path) for electrical components and therefore not
at ground potential. NEVER connect accessories or other
wiring to the frame or chassis. See “Accessory Installation
Precautions” on page 1.33. NEVER work on the vehicle
with the battery charger connected.
TIRE PRESSURE
Tire pressure for all tires is 20 psi (138 kPa) due to the tire
design used on the RANGER EV / POLARIS EV-LSV.
WARNING
Use insulated tools or insulate any tools used within the
battery area to prevent sparks or battery explosion
caused by shorting the battery terminals or wiring.
Remove the batteries or cover the exposed terminals
with an insulating material.

Cold Weather Operation
Cold weather operation requires special vigilance in regard to
battery state of charge. Discharged batteries freeze at a higher
temperature than fully charged batteries (see table for freeze
points).
Also keep in mind the following:
• Battery (vehicle) range decreases as the ambient
temperature decreases.
• Maximum range will be attained at an ambient
temperature of 80°F (26.6°C) or higher. This is the case
for all lead-acid battery products. Cold ambient
temperatures can negatively affect the range by up to
30%.

FEATURES AND CONTROLS
Console
Console switches and controls are described on the
following pages.
Key Switch
Move the Direction Selector Switch to NEUTRAL then turn
the key to the ON position to activate electrical circuits.
NOTE: The accelerator will not start the drive motor if
the Direction Selector Switch is in the Forward or
Reverse position when the key is turned ON. Switch to
NEUTRAL, then choose Forward or Reverse.
The key can be removed from the switch when it is in the
OFF position. Turn key OFF when vehicle is not in use.
Parking Brake
To help prevent the vehicle from rolling, set the park brake
when parking the vehicle. When the park brake is set and
the park brake indicator is illuminated, motor speed is
limited. If the accelerator is applied, this limiting feature
prevents operation, which protects the park brake pads
from excessive wear.
This feature will not operate properly if the park brake
connector or switch (under the hood) malfunctions or
becomes disconnected, or if the switch has moved. Check
to be sure the switch is properly connected or test and
repair as required. See Chapter 7 (Brakes) or Chapter 8
(Electrical) for diagnostic procedure.
Always apply the service brakes before engaging or
releasing the park brake.
Be sure the lever is completely forward when releasing the
park brake.
