T
side adjuster blocks in a clock-
wise direction, the right side blocks in

Stopper Strap
The function of the suspension stopper
strap is to control the transfer of vehicle
weight during acceleration. The longer
the belt, the more the weight will be
transferred to the track to provide a bet-
ter traction. The shorter the belt, the
lesser the weight transferred to the track,
thus maintaining a more positive direc-
tion. Adjusting holes on the stopper strap
allow to adjust it according to driver's
requirements, field and
I
or snow con-
ditions.
