SUSPENSION
SPRING ADJUSTMENT (WALKER EVANS)
The front and rear shocks have a ride height adjustment.
Suspension springs may be adjusted to suit different
riding conditions or vehicle payloads.
WARNING
Uneven adjustment may cause poor handling of the
vehicle, which could result in serious injury or death.
Always adjust both the left and right spring equally.
The factory setting is appropriate for nearly all riding
conditions. If desired, the spring setting may be adjusted
to maintain vehicle clearance height when carrying
loads.
1. Raise and safely support front or rear of the vehicle
off the ground to allow the suspension to fully extend.
2. Using the shock spanner/spreader tool (PN 2878925)
included in the vehicle’s tool kit, turn the adjustment
collar
q
to increase or decrease ride height.

NOTE
Polaris does not recommend increasing the spring
adjustment by more than one inch (25.4 mm) over the
factory setting
w
as it may negatively impact vehicle
stability. Always return the spring preload to the factory
setting after the load is removed from the vehicle.
