Steering Inspection

Due to the critical nature of the procedures outlined in
this chapter, Polaris recommends steering component
repair and adjustment be performed by an authorized
Polaris MSD-certified technician when replacing worn
or damaged steering parts. Use only genuine Polaris
The steering components should be checked periodically
for loose fasteners, worn tie rod ends, and damage. Also
check to make sure all cotter pins are in place. If cotter
pins are removed, they must not be re-used. Always use
new cotter pins.
Replace any worn or damaged steering components.
Steering should move freely through entire range of
travel without binding. Check routing of all cables, hoses,
and wiring to be sure the steering mechanism is not
restricted or limited.
NOTE:
replaced, check front end alignment. Use only
genuine Polaris parts.
One of two methods can be used to measure toe
alignment. The string method and the chalk method. If
adjustment is required, refer to following pages for
procedure.
