SUSPENSION
Front Torque Arm Limiter Strap Adjustment
One method of changing ski-to-
snow pressure is to change the
length of the front torque arm
limiter straps using the holes
provided. The limiter strap is
normally mounted in the fully ex-
tended position. It is important
to note that decreasing limiter
strap length will stiffen the whole
suspension.
D Lengthening the straps de-
creases ski pressure under
acceleration.
D Shortening the straps in-
creases ski pressure under
acceleration.
The preferred method for
changing ski pressure under
steady throttle condition is to in-
crease or decrease IFS spring
preload (only available on some
models).
In addition, there are two posi-
tions to mount the front track
shock. The upper position can
be used when reduced ski pres-
sure is desired for ease of steer-
ing or deep snow mobility.
Some models are equipped with
quick adjust front limiter straps.
Adjustment is made by turning
the eyebolt nut to lengthen or
shorten the straps. To shorten
the strap, turn the nut clockwise.
To lengthen the strap, turn the
nut counterclockwise.

with ride and handling, contact
