When held partially depressed, air will escape steadily from the pump and shock. To make a micro-adjustment, press and release the button. Only a small amount of air will escape. Disconnect the pump from the shock.
While disconnecting, the sound of air escaping is from the pump hose, not from the shock. Limiter Strap Adjustment The front torque arm limiter strap is set at position 1. Polaris recommends leaving the limiter strap length at position 1 to maintain the optimum ride characteristics of the snowmobile. Riders who desire less ski pressure and more weight transfer toward the rear of the snowmobile can lengthen the limiter strap by changing to position 2.

Adjust the rear spring to tune vehicle balance. If you prefer your snowmobile has lighter steering, decrease the rear track spring preload or increase the front track shock spring preload. At the front of the snowmobile, if you prefer a taller ride height, increase the front suspension shock spring preload settings. Likewise, if you prefer your snowmobile has a lower ride height, you can decrease the front suspension shock spring preload settings. Adjust shock clickers if equipped for ride quality.
For models equipped with monotube shocks, always adjust the rear track shock spring preload to enhance bottoming resistance. For models with short clickers, you can adjust the clickers to control bottoming and adjust ride comfort. Turn a clicker counter-clockwise to decrease damping for a softer ride. Turn a clicker clockwise to increase damping for a stiffer ride and less bottoming. Always adjust the clicker at least one click below full stiff full clockwise or shock damage will occur.
Test the snowmobile and continue making spring and clicker adjustments until you achieve the perfect ride. Adding traction components, such as traction studs are additional ski skag carbides, or changing the factory equipped track, could change handling characteristics. Just remember three simple steps:.
