Maintenance

Toe Alignment

Use the following procedure to check the toe align-

ment of the vehicle. The recommended toe alignment

is 1/8" to 1/4" (3-6 mm) toe out.

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.

1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Place the handlebars in a straight-ahead position.
3. Tie a length of string between two stands as

shown in the illustration. Position the stands so

that the string is flush with the side of the rear

tire. If available, you may use a long straight-

edge instead of string.
