Adjusting Toe-In
1. Thoroughly wash the ATV to remove excess
weight (mud, etc.).
2. Refer to the specifications and ensure the tires are
properly inflated to the recommended pressure.
NOTE: Ensure the inflation pressure is correct in
the tires or inaccurate measurements can occur.
3. Place the ATV in a level position taking care not to
push down or lift up on the front end; then turn the
handlebar to the straight ahead position.
NOTE: When measuring and adjusting, there
should be a normal operating load on the ATV
(without an operator but with Arctic Cat approved
accessories).
4. Measure the distance from the outside edge of
each handlebar grip to equal reference points on
each.
