INTRODUCTION
IMPORTANT NOTES FOR OWNERS AND DRIVERS
After reading this manual, store it in the snowmobile for convenient reference. It
should remain with the snowmobile when the snowmobile is sold.
Some of the illustrations and photos used in this manual are general
representations. Your model may differ.
Follow the maintenance program outlined in this manual. Preventive
maintenance ensures that critical components of the snowmobile are inspected
at specific mileage intervals. This service can be performed by your authorized
POLARIS dealer.
You and your dealer must complete the registration form included with your
snowmobile and forward it to us. This completed form is necessary to ensure
warranty coverage.
Protect and preserve your right to ride by joining your local trail riding clubs.
When teaching inexperienced operators to ride, set up a predetermined course
for practice. Make sure they know how to drive and control the snowmobile
before allowing them to make longer trips. Teach them proper snowmobile
courtesy, and enroll them in driver’s training and safety courses sponsored by
local or state organizations.
PRESERVATION OF THE ENVIRONMENT
POLARIS is committed to supporting an environmental education campaign. We
encourage state and provincial governments across the snowbelt to adopt
rigorous safety training programs that encourage protection of our environment,
including wildlife and vegetation.
Snowmobile clubs and other organizations are working together to protect our
environment. Please support their efforts and operate your snowmobile with
consideration for the protection and preservation of our environment.

INTRODUCTION
NOISE LEVEL
One of the most publicized issues about snowmobiles is noise. The Society of
Automotive Engineers (SAE), the standard-setting body for snowmobile
development, recommends that snowmobiles conform to prescribed sound
levels.
POLARIS snowmobiles are engineered to conform to these SAE standards. Our
muffler systems are designed to reduce noise levels and must not be altered or
removed. The sound of your snowmobile may not be welcome to non-
snowmobilers, so you have a responsibility to operate your snowmobile with
concern for others. We do our part by manufacturing quieter machines; we ask
your help to further reduce the impact of noise by operating your snowmobile
safely and responsibly.
AIR POLLUTION
POLARIS engineers continuously investigate ways to reduce emission levels of
two-stroke engines. We expect our efforts to lead to the reduction of potential air
pollution.
In addition to our technological research, we encourage government agencies,
manufacturers, distributors, dealers, ecologists, and other interested parties to
work together to develop data on environmental topics.

INTRODUCTION
SAFETY
OPERATOR SAFETY
Follow the recommended maintenance program beginning on page 100 of this
manual to ensure that all critical components on the snowmobile are thoroughly
inspected at specific mileage intervals. Your dealer can perform this service.
WARNING
Driving a snowmobile requires your full attention. DO NOT drink alcohol or use
drugs or medications before or while driving or riding as a passenger. They will
reduce your alertness and slow your reaction time.
Snowmobiles are capable of traveling at high speeds. Use extra caution to
ensure operator safety. Make sure your snowmobile is in excellent operating
condition at all times. Always check major and vital safety components before
every ride.
All POLARIS snowmobiles are designed and tested to provide safe operation
when used as directed. Failure of critical machine components may result from
operation with any modifications, especially those that increase speed or
power. DO NOT MODIFY YOUR MACHINE. The snowmobile may become
aerodynamically unstable at speeds higher than those for which it is designed.
Loss of control may occur at higher speeds. Modifications may also create a
safety hazard and lead to bodily injury.
The warranty on your entire machine is terminated if any equipment has been
added, or any modifications have been made, to increase the speed or power
of the snowmobile.
11
SAFETY
STAY CLEAR OF TRACK
Your snowmobile is propelled by a revolving track that must be partially exposed
for proper operation. Do not stand on the plastic flap.
WARNING
Serious injuries may result if hands, feet, or clothing become entangled in the
track. Be alert when riding, and remain properly seated to stay clear of the
track. Never hold the snowmobile up or stand behind it while warming up the
track. A loose track or flying debris could cause serious injury or death. We
recommend having your dealer perform all track service and alignment
procedures.
STAY CLEAR OF ENGINE
Never attempt adjustments with the engine running. Turn off the ignition, open
the side panels or hood, make the adjustment, secure shields and guards,
secure the side panels and hood, and then restart the engine to check its
operation.
WARNING
Serious injury can occur if fingers or clothing contact the moving parts of an
engine. Always stop the engine before attempting adjustments.
RIDING POSITION
Operating a snowmobile requires skill and balance for proper control. Rider
positions may vary with experience and the features available on some
snowmobiles, but under many conditions, the proper position is to be seated
with both feet on the running boards and both hands on the handlebar grips for
proper throttle, brake and steering control.
WARNING
Improper riding position may reduce control and could result in serious injury or
death. Always ride in a position that allows for control of your vehicle.
RIDER CAPACITY
This snowmobile is designed for a single rider only. Never carry a passenger on
this snowmobile.
12
SAFETY
RIDING APPAREL
HELMET
Wearing a helmet can prevent a severe head injury. Whenever riding this
POLARIS vehicle, always wear a helmet that meets or exceeds established
safety standards. Clasp the buckle and pull each strap tight to ensure the helmet
is properly secured to the head.
Parents should verify that young operators have a helmet that fits, and should
obtain one of proper size if it does not fit before allowing operation.
Approved helmets in the USA and Canada bear a U.S.
Department of Transportation (DOT) label.
Approved helmets in Europe, Asia and Oceania bear
the ECE 22.05 label. The ECE mark consists of a
circle surrounding the letter E, followed by the
distinguishing number of the country which has
granted approval. The approval number and serial
number will also be displayed on the label.
EYE PROTECTION
Do not depend on eyeglasses or sunglasses for eye protection. Whenever riding
a POLARIS vehicle, always wear shatterproof goggles or use a shatterproof
helmet face shield. POLARIS recommends wearing approved Personal
Protective Equipment (PPE) bearing markings such as VESC 8, V-8, Z87.1, or
CE. Make sure protective eye wear is kept clean.
13
SAFETY
CLOTHING
WARNING
Avoid wearing loose clothing or long scarves, which can become entangled in
moving parts and cause serious injury. Always wear an approved helmet and
eye protection.
Be prepared, be warm and be
comfortable when riding. Be aware of
the weather forecast, especially the
windchill, and dress accordingly. See
page 27.
SURVIVAL PREPARATION
For your safety, always ride in a group of other snowmobilers. Always tell
someone where you're going and how long you expect to be gone. If it isn't
possible to ride with others, and you must travel into remote areas, always carry
survival equipment that's appropriate to the conditions you may encounter. Such
equipment may include, but is not limited to: extra clothing, a sleeping bag, a
flashlight, food and water, a signaling mirror, a means of building a fire, and a
two-way radio or cellular telephone.
Always carry the owner’s manual on your snowmobile. For added protection,
purchase and carry the following items on your snowmobile as well:
• Spare Drive Belt
• Extra Set of Spark Plugs
• Tow Rope
• Extra Oil
• Fuel Deicer
• Winter Survival Kit
• Trail Map
• First Aid Kit
• Tool Kit
14
SAFETY
EXCESSIVE SPEED
WARNING
High speed driving, especially at night, could result in serious injury or death.
Always reduce speed when driving at night or in inclement weather.
Always observe all state and local laws governing snowmobile operation and
speed limits. Always be alert and pay attention to the trail ahead. If your speed is
40 MPH (64 km/h), your snowmobile is traveling about 60 feet (18 m) per
second. If you look back for only two seconds, your snowmobile will travel about
120 feet (36 m). If your speed is 60 MPH (96 km/h), your snowmobile will travel
about 180 feet (55 m) in two seconds.
Traveling at night requires extra caution. Check headlight and taillight to ensure
proper operation, and don’t over-drive your headlight beam. Always be able to
bring your snowmobile to a stop in the distance illuminated by the headlight.
DRIVER AWARENESS
Slow down when traveling near poles, posts, or other obstacles. Be especially
alert if you're snowmobiling after dark. Always be on the alert for wire fences.
Single strands are especially dangerous, since there may be a great distance
between posts. Guy wires on utility poles are also difficult to distinguish.
Make sure the way is clear before crossing railroads
and other roads and highways. The noise of your
snowmobile will drown out the sound of approaching
vehicles. Look ahead, behind, and to both sides before
turning or crossing railroad tracks or highways. Steep
embankments may also hide your view. Always leave
yourself a way out.
Variances in snow depth and/or water currents may result in uneven ice
thickness. You may drown if you break through the ice. Never travel on frozen
bodies of water unless you have first verified that the ice is sufficiently thick to
support the weight and moving force of the snowmobile, you and your cargo,
together with any other vehicles in your party. Always check with local authorities
and residents to confirm ice conditions and thickness over your entire route.
Snowmobile operators assume all risk associated with ice conditions on frozen
bodies of water.
When teaching inexperienced operators to ride, set up a predetermined course
for practice. Make sure they know how to drive and control the snowmobile
before allowing them to make longer trips. Teach them proper snowmobile
courtesy, and enroll them in driver's training and safety courses.
15
SAFETY
DISABLED OPERATORS
Safe operation of this rider-active vehicle requires good judgement and physical
skills. Operators with cognitive or physical disabilities have an increased risk of
loss of control, which could result in serious injury or death.
MOUNTAINOUS TERRAIN RIDING
Mountainous terrain operation, even for experienced riders, can present
conditions and situations that could result in serious injury or death. Please
review all of the information about riding in mountainous terrain on the following
pages of this manual.
WARNING
An avalanche can occur at any time, in any conditions and on any slope.
The avalanche information provided in this manual should be considered basic
information and is not intended to replace your participation in an avalanche
safety training course. After reviewing the avalanche information in this manual,
be sure to participate in an avalanche safety training course before riding in
mountainous terrain. The training course will provide more information as well as
the opportunity to practice riding and using proper search and recovery
techniques.

SAFETY
GET THE SAFETY GEAR
In addition to carrying a spare belt, spark plugs and tools on each snowmobile,
each person in your riding group should wear the recommended snowmobile
riding apparel and carry (on their person) the following survival items when
riding in mountainous terrain:
• A digital avalanche beacon with new
“fresh” alkaline batteries
• An avalanche probe
• A compact shovel and hand saw
• A backpack (preferably an avalanche
air bag backpack)
• Emergency provisions, including the
following items:
– Small first aid kit
– Extra pair of gloves
– Extra dry socks
– Tow rope, map, compass/GPS
– Lighter or waterproof matches
– Signal mirror and whistle
– Bottled water
– High calorie snack food
– Compact emergency blanket
17
SAFETY
GET TO KNOW YOUR SAFETY GEAR
Following the safety gear and apparel recommendations will increase your
chances of survival if you encounter an avalanche or become stranded in the
backcountry, but even experienced and properly-equipped snowmobilers, hikers
and skiers perish in avalanches or succumb to hypothermia. Using a beacon or
probe for the first time during an avalanche recovery operation, or not knowing
how to deploy your avalanche air bag backpack during a slide, should be
considered UNACCEPTABLE to you and all members of your riding group. It’s
critical that you and all members of your riding group know how to use the safety
gear.
While you may know how to use your gear, you may have to rely on your
riding group to find you in an avalanche. Make sure they know how to use
their gear.
• Dress in layers. Multiple layers of clothing provide the best barrier to cold and
wind. Layers can be removed, but if you start out without enough layers, they
cannot be added later. Avoid cotton materials, which will freeze if they get wet.
• Wear highly visible gear.
• Try on all gear and equipment to make sure it fits and doesn’t interfere with
your riding capabilities. Place all survival aids in your backpack and wear the
backpack at all times. Non-essential items can be stored on the snowmobile
in an accessory bag.
• Read and follow the manufacturer’s user and maintenance instructions for all
gear. If you have questions about how your gear works, contact the
manufacturer for more information.
• Practice using your beacons, shovels and probes with your riding group in
real-world conditions wearing all of your gear. Have someone hide an active
“transmitting” beacon by throwing it (not walking it) into a snowbank and
timing your group’s search for it.
• Test deploying your gear. If you own an avalanche air bag backpack, check
with the manufacturer’s test deployment guidelines and bottle weight
replacement specifications. Most air bag backpack manufacturers
recommend testing the pack once a year so you know it works and feel
comfortable with the bag and deployment time.
• Make sure your probe and shovel are in good condition and that you know
how to assemble them.
18
SAFETY
GET THE PICTURE
Slopes steeper than 30Âş are more
prone to avalanches, but any slope
should be considered avalanche
terrain, even small slopes with trees.
Low-angle slopes are also
avalanche terrain if they have
steeper slopes above them.
NOTE
The 30Âş slope graphic is for illustration purposes only. The risk of an avalanche
is always present in mountainous terrain, regardless of slope angle.
Always look for the following warning signs of unstable snow. If you see or hear
any of these signs, riding on or below any slope is dangerous and should be
avoided:
• Recent avalanches
• A “whumpfing” sound under a
snowpack
• Cracks across the top of a snowpack
• A recent heavy snowfall
• Blowing snow
• Rain
• Rapid warming
GET OUT OF HARM’S WAY
• Before riding, always tell a responsible person (i.e. at the lodge or gas station)
where your group is going.
• Never ride alone. Always ride in a small, manageable group. Riding in a large
group makes it more difficult to track riders or find missing members.
• Go “one at a time”. Only one snowmobile at a time should cross, ascend or
highmark a slope. Other riders should watch from a safe location until the
previous rider exits the slope.
• Never park at the base of a slope or at the bottom of a gully or valley. When
parking to take a break or watch other riders, park at the sides of the slope
with the front of your snowmobile pointed away from the slope.
19
SAFETY
GET TO KNOW YOUR MOUNTAIN SNOWMOBILE
The following information pertains to a deep snow/mountain snowmobile. This
type of snowmobile is longer and narrower and has a higher center of gravity
when compared to a typical trail snowmobile. These features make riding the
backcountry a safer and more enjoyable experience.
The mountain snowmobile is slower, has a larger turning radius and will overturn
more easily than a trail snowmobile. The skis are designed to float and provide
more lift than trail skis. The track features paddles that pack and shovel snow
rather than dig in and grip the snowpack.
Because POLARIS mountain snowmobiles feature tall track paddles, the rear
suspension rails and sliders will sit above the snowpack on a groomed trail.
Always deploy the scratchers and limit high speed operation when trail riding.
Do not rely on the engine temperature gauge to determine when to deploy rail
scratchers. The rail sliders and track can overheat well before the engine
temperature indicates the need for more cooling.
Always practice riding your mountain snowmobile in a safe, open, flat area
before attempting your first ride in mountainous terrain. This is especially
important for low-elevation riders who are not accustomed to riding a
snowmobile designed for deep snow.
Do not ride in mountainous terrain until you are comfortable riding and
controlling your snowmobile in deep snow.
• Practice turning, leaning and braking, both on the trail and off the trail. When
you’re comfortable with these maneuvers, practice more advanced
maneuvers in deep flat snow.
• Learn techniques from more experienced riders.
• Practice placing your feet in different locations on the floorboards to learn
where your balance point is while performing turns and other maneuvers.
• Practice traversing through deep snow, which is when you will often need to
steer by leaning your body weight in the desired direction while turning the
skis slightly in the opposite direction.
• Practice using proper throttle control to maintain vehicle momentum and
adequate track speed in deep snow. Everyone gets stuck at some point in
time. If you know your snowmobile is becoming stuck, try to turn downhill as
much as you can before the snowmobile comes to a stop.
20
SAFETY
GET THE FORECAST
Make a riding plan based on the current avalanche
and weather forecast. It is important to remember that
overnight weather conditions may have created unsafe
riding terrain that was considered safe the day before.
Visit www.avalanche.org or scan the QR code. Follow
the page links to locate current avalanche reports and
conditions for your area of operation.
GET AVALANCHE SAFETY TRAINING
POLARIS recommends you and all members of your
riding group participate in an avalanche safety course.
Visit www.avalanche.org/education or scan the QR
code for education and training resources.
AVALANCHE AWARENESS
Avalanches are a matter of timing. A steep slope can be safe one day, but
unsafe the next day due to changing weather and wind conditions.
• Always review the user instructions provided with your safety equipment and
follow the recommendations for maintenance, testing and use. Always test
your safety equipment to ensure it works properly before riding in
mountainous terrain.
• Always store your survival gear in your backpack and wear the backpack. Do
not store your survival gear on the snowmobile.
• Always research current avalanche conditions in your area of operation
before riding. Check with local law enforcement, resort or lodging personnel,
gas station attendants and other riders to learn about current conditions and
any advisories in the area.
• Read and understand the avalanche danger scale. Pay attention to any
danger level warnings issued for your area of operation.
• Always remain alert while riding in mountainous terrain. Be aware of
snowpack conditions above you as you ride. Avalanches can occur at any
time regardless of current condition reports.

SAFETY
ICE AND SNOW BUILD-UP
WARNING
Ice and snow build-up may interfere with the steering of your snowmobile,
resulting in serious injury or death. Keep the underhood area free of snow and
ice.
Before driving, manually turn the skis to the left and right to be sure ice and
snow are not interfering with full left and right steering. If difficulty is
encountered, remove ice and snow build-up that may be obstructing the steering
linkage.
DRIVING ON SLIPPERY SURFACES
WARNING
Never attempt an abrupt change of direction when operating on slippery
surfaces. Proceed slowly and use extra caution. Driving on ice or hard-packed
snow reduces steering and braking control, which may result in loss of control
and serious injury or death. Slow down and use extra caution when operating
on slippery surfaces.
INADEQUATE SNOW CONDITIONS
Since snow provides the only lubrication for the power slide suspension and, on
liquid cooled models, cooling for the engine, adequate snow cover is a
requirement for operation of your snowmobile.
NOTICE
Driving in too little snow will result in excessive wear and damage to the slide
rail, track and/or engine.
WARNING
Inadequate cooling and lubrication will lead to overheating of the slide rail and
track, causing premature wear, damage and failure, which can result in serious
injury. Reduce speeds and frequently drive into fresh snow to allow adequate
cooling and polishing of the slide rail and track surfaces. Avoid operating for
prolonged periods on ice, hard-packed surfaces or roads.
OPERATING IN DEEP SNOW
If the snowmobile becomes stuck in snow, clear the running board area of snow,
then step down the snow in front of the snowmobile so that when the throttle is
opened, the snowmobile will be able to climb up and over the snow.
23
SAFETY
DRIVING DOWNHILL
When riding downhill, shift your weight to the rear of the snowmobile and reduce
your speed to a minimum. Apply just enough throttle to keep the clutch engaged,
allowing the engine's compression to help slow the snowmobile and keep it from
rolling freely downhill.
WARNING
When driving on long downhill stretches, pump the brakes. Riding the brakes
may cause the brake system to overheat, which may result in brake failure.
Excessive or repetitive use of the brakes for high speed stops will also cause
an overheated brake system. This condition may lead to a sudden loss of
brakes and/or fire and may result in serious injury or death.
DRIVING IN HILLY TERRAIN
WARNING
Climbing a hill or crossing the face of a slope may result in loss of balance and
snowmobile rollover, causing serious injury or death. Use caution and good
judgement when driving in hilly terrain.
Use extra caution when operating in hilly terrain. If climbing a hill is unavoidable,
keep your weight low and forward. If you must cross the face of a slope, keep
your weight on the uphill side of the snowmobile to maintain proper balance and
avoid possible roll-over.
Slow down when reaching the crest of a hill. Be prepared to react to obstacles,
sharp drops or other people or vehicles that may be on the other side of the hill.
If you're unable to continue up a hill, turn the snowmobile downhill before it loses
momentum. If this isn't possible, spin the track just enough to dig in to prevent it
from rolling back down the hill. Stop the engine and set the parking brake (if
equipped). Keeping away from the downhill side of the snowmobile, pull the rear
of the snowmobile around and point the front end and skis downhill. Remount
the snowmobile, restart the engine, release the parking brake, and descend the
hill carefully.
24
SAFETY
DRIVE BELT
Do not operate the engine with the drive belt removed.
Any servicing that requires operation without a belt can be performed by your
dealer.
WARNING
Operation of the engine with the belt removed may result in injury or damage to
the engine.
INTAKE SILENCER
Do not operate the engine with the intake silencer or filter removed.
NOTICE
Damage to the engine may occur if the intake silencer or filter are removed.
CLUTCHES
Do not attempt to service the clutches.
All clutch service can be performed by your dealer. The clutch is a complex
mechanism that rotates at high speeds. Each clutch is dynamically balanced
before installation. Any tampering may disrupt this precision balancing and
create an unstable condition.
COLD WEATHER DRIVE-AWAY
Whenever your snowmobile has been parked for a length of time, especially
overnight, always make sure the skis and track are loosened from ice and snow
before attempting to drive. Apply the throttle with enough authority to put the
snowmobile into motion, but always operate within safety limits.
On 2-up machines, always operate with respect for a passenger.
MANEUVERABILITY
While much control and maneuverability is achieved through the steering
system and skis, maximum control is achieved by the shifting of your body
weight. Maneuverability will change based on rider weight and foot position on
running boards.

SAFETY
DRIVING RESPONSIBLY
Every snowmobile handles differently, and even the most docile conditions may
become dangerous if operators drive improperly. If you're new to snowmobiling,
acquaint yourself with the snowmobile and with what it will and won't do under
various conditions. Even seasoned drivers should spend some time getting the
feel for a snowmobile before attempting ambitious maneuvers.
• A snowmobile depends on the rider's body position for proper balance in
executing turns, traversing hills, etc. Always start on a smooth, level area to
begin building your operating experience.
• Before allowing someone else to use your snowmobile, know the extent of
their operating skills. Check to see if they've taken a snowmobile safety
course and have an operator's certificate. For their protection, as well as
yours, make sure they take a snowmobile safety course. Everyone can
benefit from the course.
• Don't “jump” your snowmobile over large drifts or similar terrain. Jumping may
injure your back because of spinal compression that could occur when the
snowmobile impacts the ground. The seat and suspension of your
snowmobile have been designed to provide protection under normal riding
conditions. Your snowmobile is not intended for this kind of use.
• Be courteous to oncoming traffic by dimming your headlights and reducing
your speed.
• When traveling in a group of snowmobiles, don't tailgate (follow too closely).
Leave enough distance between snowmobiles to provide ample stopping
room and to provide protection from flying snow and debris. Allow even more
distance when driving on slippery surfaces or when driving in darkness or
other low visibility conditions. Be aware of any snowmobile traffic around your
vehicle. Drive defensively to avoid accidents.
• Remove the key from the ignition when you leave the snowmobile
unattended.

SUSPENSION QUICK SET-UP GUIDE
The front and rear suspensions on your AXYS snowmobile are easy to adjust.
Just remember three simple steps:
1. Ride your snowmobile.
2. Adjust the rear track shock spring to tune vehicle balance (ski pressure and
weight transfer).
3. Adjust shock clickers (if equipped) to tune ride quality (stiffer or softer ride).
Step 1: Ride your snowmobile.
Ride the snowmobile in various terrain to fully experience the existing
suspension settings before making any adjustments.
Step 2: Adjust the rear spring to tune vehicle balance.
After riding, you should be able to determine if the snowmobile needs more or
less transfer.
• For more transfer, decrease the rear track spring preload.
• For less transfer, increase the rear track spring preload.
If you prefer your snowmobile has lighter steering, decrease the rear track
spring preload or increase the front track shock spring preload.
Step 3: 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 shock 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.
• For models with high/low speed compression dampening, adjust the low-
speed adjustment control first. If desired ride is not achieved, adjust the high-
speed adjustment control to improve ride.
NOTICE
Always adjust the clicker at least one click below full stiff (full clockwise) or
shock damage will occur.
Test ride the snowmobile and continue making spring and clicker adjustments
until you achieve the perfect ride.

SHOCK COMPRESSION DAMPING
Shock compression damping is available for SKS, RMK KHAOS, and optional
for PRO-RMK.
The primary adjustment for overall vehicle balance is RTS spring preload.
Perform this adjustment first. After adjusting RTS spring preload to your
satisfaction, compression damping adjustments can be made to control ride
quality and bottoming resistance.
Compression damping can be adjusted on both the front and rear suspension.
Make adjustments in 2-click increments, then test ride. When adjusting the front
suspension, always adjust both clickers equally.
To stop bottoming of the front or rear suspension (stiffer ride), rotate the clicker
(s) clockwise two clicks (as viewed from the top of the clicker), then test ride.
Repeat the adjustment until bottoming stops and the desired ride quality is
achieved.
For a more plush ride at the front or rear suspension, rotate the clicker(s)
counter-clockwise two clicks, then test ride. Repeat the adjustment until the
desired ride quality is achieved.

For riders who weigh 160-220 lbs. (73-100 kg), test ride at factory settings, then
make fine-tuning adjustments. See the following initial RTS Shock Preload
Settings table.
For riders outside the 160-220 lbs. (73-
100 kg) weight range, adjust the
factory-set preload to the following
installed lengths as a starting point,
then test ride before making fine-tuning
adjustments. Do not exceed the
minimum and maximum installed length
requirements. See the following initial
RTS Shock Preload Settings table.
Always perform shock spring preload adjustments with the weight of the vehicle
removed from the shock and with the shock at full extension. If adjustments to
the factory-installed springs are not sufficient for riders over 300 lbs. (136 kg),
optional stiffer springs are available. Your POLARIS dealer can assist.
