Toe Adjustment - Polaris 600 RUSH 2010 Manual

Steering and Suspensions

Toe Adjustment

Toe is adjusted with the shocks and skis installed. Track
alignment must be correct before starting this process.
Toe alignment is measured at ride height.
1. Rock the front end of the vehicle up and down and
then set it down gently. This will set the front
suspension at ride height.
2. Verify the handlebars are centered. Measure from
each end to a common center point at the rear of the
snowmobile to verify.
3. Measure and make a mark 10" (2.54cm) forward of
the ski mount bolt and 10" (2.54cm) behind the ski
mount bolt, preferably on the center line of the carbide
skags.
4. Place a straight edge along the one side of the track.
Make sure that the straight edge is touching along the
length of the track.
5. Record the measurements from the edge of the
straight edge to the forward ski mark (X) and the
rearward ski mark (Y).
6. Adjust the tie rod so that both measurements are the
same.
7. Place the straight edge on the opposite side of the
track and measure the opposite ski marks.
8. Adjust the tie rod so that both measurements are the
same.
9. Steps 3 to 8 will align the skis with the track. At this
point, verify the handlebar is centered with the skis.
NOTE: The handlebar can be aligned with the skis
on models featuring an adjustable drag link by
adjusting the length of the drag link. If the
snowmobile does not feature an adjustable drag
link, handlebar-ski alignment can only be performed
by adjusting the steering tie rod lengths.

10. Turn both tie rods equally to set ski toe. When
finished, measurement (X) should be 0" - 1/8" wider
than measurement (Y).
11. Torque steering tie rod jam nuts to specification and
lower the vehicle.
