MAINTENANCE

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.
