Adjusting Front Shock
Springs (STD)
NOTE: On some models, the
front shock springs are not
adjustable.
The front shock springs are individu-
ally adjustable for the terrain condi-
tions 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 housing
as an initial setting. Additional ski
pressure can be obtained by tightening
the spring tension; ski pressure can be
decreased by relaxing spring tension.
NOTE:
Equal
should be maintained on both
sides of the snowmobile.
To adjust spring tension, rotate the
entire spring in whichever direction is
desired. If after adjusting spring ten-
sion you note the snowmobile front
end wants to pitch, relax the spring
tension on the side that is pitching. If
both sides are pitching, relax the
spring tension on both sides.
NOTE: The spring adjuster will
normally rotate with the spring.

Adjusting Front
Shocks
(Fox Air Shocks)
NOTE: It is recommended to
monitor the air pressure in the
air shocks once every month.
NOTE: Adjusting air shocks
may be done by the snowmobile
owner if qualified to do so. If the
owner does not feel qualified,
take the snowmobile to an
authorized Arctic Cat Snowmo-
bile dealer for this service. This
service is at the discretion and
expense
of
owner.
The air shocks are individually adjust-
able for the terrain conditions and
driving style of the operator. The
shocks are preset at 4.6 kg/cm
psi) as an initial setting on the Cross-
fire/F-Series Sno Pro models or at 4.2
2
kg/cm
(60 psi) on the M-Series mod-
els; however, it is possible to "fine
tune" the shocks to match the opera-
tor's weight, riding style, and terrain
conditions.
NOTE: Care should be taken
to have equal pressure in the
shocks before operating the
snowmobile.
