Maintenance

Steering Inspection

The steering assembly of the ATV should be checked periodically for loose nuts and bolts.

If any are found, have your dealer tighten them before operating the ATV.

Toe Alignment

Use the following procedure to check the toe alignment of the vehicle. The recommended

toe alignment is 1/8” to 1/4” toe out.
1. Set the handlebars in a straight-ahead position. NOTE: The steering frog can be used

as an indicator of whether the handlebars are straight. The frog should always point

straight back from the steering post.

2. Place stands (A) in front of the vehicle, perpendicular to the rear tires. See illustration.

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.
