Always wear safety glasses and nitrile gloves when servicing your Polaris ATV. To remove and install the battery on your model year 2021 and newer Sportsman 570, follow these steps:

2. Set the parking brake and remove the key. 

3. Unlatch the front storage compartment straps and open the compartment. 

4. Loosen the two battery bracket fasteners. Lift the bracket with fasteners up and pull out to remove from the vehicle.

5. Using a 10mm socket and wrench, remove the black negative battery cable fastener first to prevent arcing. Set the cable aside.

6. Then use a 10mm socket and wrench to remove the red positive cable fastener. Set the cable aside. Reinstalling the fasteners into the posts will help prevent misplacement. 

7. Carefully lift the battery out of the vehicle. 

8. If reinstalling the battery, ensure it is fully charged and free of any debris to prevent damage. Follow the instructions in the Battery Charging section of your Owner’s Manual before installing the battery.

9. Clean any dirt or debris from the mounting bracket and reinstall the battery. The battery is part number 4017419.

10. Install the positive cable first to prevent arcing. Torque to 5 ft-lbs (7 Nm).

11. Install the negative cable. Torque to 5 ft-lbs (7 Nm).

12. Coat the battery terminals with dielectric grease or petroleum jelly. 

13. Before proceeding, verify the cables are secure and properly routed.

14. Reinstall the battery bracket and fasteners.

15. Finally, turn the key ON to verify the battery is properly connected. When the battery is disconnected, the vehicle’s clock may need to be reset.
