MAINTENANCE

Toe Alignment

Use the following procedure to check the toe alignment of the vehicle.
The recommended toe alignment is 3-6 mm toe out.

1. Position the vehicle on a

level surface.

2. Place the handlebars in a

straight-ahead position.

3. Tie a length of string

between two stands as
shown in the illustration.
Position the stands so
that the string is flush
with the side of the rear
tire.

NOTE: If available, you may

use a long straight-

edge instead of string.

4. Measure the distance

from the string to the
rim at the front (1) and
rear (2) of the front rim.
The rear measurement should be 2-3 mm more than the front mea-
surement on each side of the vehicle to obtain the recommended 3-6
mm toe out alignment.

5. Repeat the measurement procedure on the other side of the vehicle.

NOTE: If you discover improper alignment, see your Polaris dealer for service.

WARNING

Do not attempt to adjust alignment. All steering adjustments should be

performed by an authorized Polaris dealer.
