Toe Alignment
Use the following procedure to check the toe alignment of the vehicle.
The recommended toe alignment is 1/8" to 1/4" (3-6 mm) toe out.
1. Place the handlebars
in a straight-ahead
position.
2. Place stands in front
of the vehicle, per-
pendicular to the rear
tires.
3. Tie an elastic string
around the stands,
making sure the
string just touches
the side surface of
the rear tires on each
side of the vehicle
and goes around the
stands in front of the
vehicle.
4. Measure the dis-
tance from the string
to the rim at the front
and rear of the front
rim. Rear measure-
ment should be 1/16"
to 1/8" (2-3 mm)
more than the front
measurement.
NOTE: If you discover improper alignment, see your Polaris dealer for service.
WARNING
Severe injury or death can result from improper toe alignment and
adjustment. Do not attempt to adjust tie rod alignment. All tie rod adjustments
should be performed by an authorized Polaris dealer.
