The Arctic Cat ZL 600 uses the 894 bulb for the high beam headlight and the 885 bulb for the low beam headlight across the 1999-2003 model years.
Both the 894 and 885 are ANSI-standardized bulb types recognized in the United States and Canada, meaning they conform to defined performance and dimensional specifications set by the American National Standards Institute.
Both bulbs are single-filament halogen types, meaning each bulb handles only one lighting function rather than combining high and low beam duties within a single unit.
Both bulbs operate on a 12-volt electrical system, which is consistent with the standard automotive and powersports electrical architecture used in this application.
The 894 high beam bulb is rated at 37.5 watts, while the 885 low beam bulb draws 50 watts, making the low beam the higher-wattage unit of the two.
Both the 894 and 885 share the PGJ13 base type, a prefocused base design where the filament position is fixed relative to the base to ensure consistent optical alignment within the headlight housing.
Although the 894 and 885 share the same PGJ13 base, their different wattage ratings mean they are not interchangeable without affecting intended lighting output and potentially exceeding circuit or housing tolerances.
