The best way to set up the suspension is to customize each adjust-
ment one at a time. Various adjustments are interrelated. It may be
necessary to readjust center spring after adjusting front springs for in-
stance. Test run the snowmobile under the same conditions; trail,
speed, snow, operator riding position, etc. Proceed methodically until
you are satisfied.
Following are guidelines to fine-tune suspension. Use suspension ad-
justment tool provided in the tool kit.
