THE PERFECT FIT
Edge Touring Suspension
Initial Setup and Calibration
The following information has been compiled to assist you in tuning
your ETS to its maximum potential.
The Ride Control Adjuster (RCA)
1. Refer to the initial setup reference chart (located under the hood of
your snowmobile and on page 42) to determine the desired RCA
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 RCA position.
5. Tighten the jam nuts (B). NOTE: Make sure the preload bolt con-
tacts the slide block before tightening the jam nut.
6. Tighten the hex bolts (A) and torque to 35 ft. lbs. (47 Nm).
NOTE: The RCA setting is the primary rear suspension adjustment. It
will have the MOST effect on the rear suspension performance.
Front Arm Mounting Holes
There are also
two front arm
mounting holes in
the slide rail that can
adjust ski pressure. The
lower hole (C) increases ski
pressure while the upper hole (D)
decreases ski pressure.
