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.
