Track Alignment/Condition - Polaris 600 RMK 144 Owner's Manual

MAINTENANCE
Track Alignment
n
Periodically check that the track is
centered and running evenly on the
slide rails. Misalignment will cause
excessive wear to the track and slide
rail.
1. Safely support the rear of the
snowmobile with the track off the
ground.
2. Start the engine and apply a small
amount of throttle until the track
turns slowly at least five
complete revolutions. Stop the
engine and let the track come to a
stop (do not apply brakes).
3. Inspect track alignment by looking through the track window to
make sure the rails are evenly spaced on each side. If the track runs
to the left, loosen the left locknut and tighten the left adjusting bolt.
If the track runs to the right, loosen the right locknut and tighten the
right adjusting bolt.
4. After adjustments are complete, tighten the locknuts and torque
idler shaft bolts to 35 ft. lbs. (47.5 Nm).
5. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to verify proper alignment.
