SUSPENSION

The suspension should be adjusted
for the operational needs and riding
preference of the operator.
The front shock springs determine
the amount of ski pressure and the
reaction of the front suspension to
rough terrain. The amount of ski
pressure can also be changed by
adjusting the length of the skid
frame front arm limiter straps.
The rear springs influence the load
carrying capability of the snowmo-
bile and should be adjusted for the
weight and riding preference of the
operator.
Adjusting Front Shock Springs
739-636A
The front shock springs on the spin-
dle housings are individually adjust-
able for the terrain conditions and
driving style of the operator. The
spring adjuster has been set at the
factory so the correct amount of
threads are exposed between the
spring adjuster and the shock hous-
ing as an initial setting. Additional
ski pressure can be obtained by
tightening the spring tension; ski
pressure can be decreased by relax-
ing spring tension.
