MAINTENANCE
Suspension Settings
Front/Rear Spring Preload
The factory setting is appropriate for nearly all
riding conditions. If desired, the suspension may
be adjusted to maintain vehicle clearance height
when carrying loads. Use the shock/clutch tool
from the tool kit to aid in making suspension
adjustments. Elevate the vehicle slightly for eas-
ier adjustment.
Follow these guidelines if you make adjustments
to this suspension.
• Always return the suspension to the factory setting
after the load is removed from the vehicle. The increased suspension height
will negatively impact vehicle stability when operating without a load.
• Always apply the same adjustment setting to all four wheels.
• Do not increase the spring preload by more than one inch (25.4 mm) over the
factory setting.
1. Elevate the vehicle to allow the suspension
to fully extend.
2. Loosen the jam nut and back it away from
the adjusting ring.
3. Turn the adjusting ring to the left (1) to
increase preload for a stiffer ride. Turn the
adjusting ring to the right (2) to decrease
preload for a softer ride.
WARNING! Uneven adjustment may cause poor
handling of the vehicle, which could result in an
accident. Always adjust both the left and right spring
preloads equally or have your POLARIS dealer
perform the adjustments.
4. Tighten the jam nut firmly against the
adjuster ring.
