Shock Components - Polaris Trail Touring Owner's Manual

THE PERFECT FIT
Front Suspension Adjustments
WARNING! Improper ski alignment or adjustment may cause loss of steering
control, resulting in serious injury or death. Always verify ski alignment before
making adjustments to the IFS. See page 100 to check alignment. Do not
attempt to change the ski alignment or camber adjustment. See your Polaris
dealer.
For the best ride, the suspension should be adjusted to use the full travel
of the shocks with occasional light bottoming. To determine if your
machine is using full travel, push the jounce bumper down on the shock
rod until it contacts the body and test ride the machine. The bumper will
move up on the rod in relation to the amount of travel that was used dur-
ing the ride. If the travel is full, the bumper will be seated at the top of
the rod.
