MAINTENANCE

Steering Wheel Inspection

Check the steering wheel for specified freeplay and smooth operation at
the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on
page 81.

1. Position the vehicle on level ground.

2. Lightly turn the steering wheel left and right.

3. There should be 0.8”-1.0” (20-25 mm) of freeplay.

4. If there is excessive freeplay or strange noises, or the steering feels

rough or “catchy,” have the steering system inspected by an autho-
rized POLARIS dealer.

Rear Spring

The rear shock absorber spring is adjusted
by rotating the adjuster either clockwise
or counter-clockwise to increase or
decrease spring tension.

Accessory springs are available through
your POLARIS dealer.
