THE PERFECT FIT

M10 Suspension

Initial Setup and Calibration

Your M10 is a precision instrument which MUST be optimized for

your specific needs and riding conditions. The following information

has been compiled to assist you in tuning your M10 to its maximum

potential.
The Full Range Adjuster (FRA)
1. Refer to the initial setup reference chart (located under the hood of

your snowmobile and on page 42) to determine the desired FRA

position.

2. To adjust, loosen the hex bolts (A) attaching the rear lower shock

cross shaft to the rail beam.

3. Using a 9/16” wrench, loosen the jam nuts (B) on the preload

bolts.

4. Adjust the preload bolts (C) to the desired FRA position.
5. Tighten the jam nuts (B). NOTE: Make sure the preload bolt is

contacting the slide block before tightening the jam nut.

6. Tighten the hex bolts (A) and torque to 35 ft. lbs. (47 Nm).
NOTE: The FRA setting is the primary rear suspension adjustment. It

will have the MOST effect on the rear suspension performance.
If the M10 is new, it will take anywhere from 25 to 200 miles to

properly break in the springs and shocks. During break-in, the

suspension will get softer and may require the FRA to be readjusted.
