THE PERFECT FIT
IQ Front Suspension Adjustments
Front Shock Spring Preload
(RMK Premium Only)
Increasing spring preload will
increase ski-to-ground pressure.
Decreasing spring preload will
decrease ski-to-ground pressure.
When adjusting, be sure the springs
on both the left and right sides of the
machine are at the same adjustment.
To increase front shock spring pre-
load, grasp the spring and turn it to
the left. Turn it to the right to decrease
preload.
Increasing the spring preload too
much may adversely affect the han-
dling of the snowmobile and the per-
formance of the suspension. Never
exceed one inch of preload beyond
the factory settings, and ensure that
both sides are adjusted the same.
When decreasing preload, make sure
at least two turns of preload are hold-
ing the spring between the retainer on
top of the shock and the threaded
spring preload adjuster nut on the
shock body.
Front Shock Springs
(Standard only)
The front springs can be changed if spring preload alone isn't sufficient
and further adjustment is desired to control suspension stiffness. See
your Polaris dealer for more information.
