Measuring/Adjusting
Toe-Out
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 side.
5. Adjust the handlebar direction until the two measure-
ments are equal; then secure the handlebar.
NOTE: Care must be taken not to allow the handle-
bar to turn while securing it.
NOTE: The front wheels do not have to be removed
to adjust the tie rod. Also, care should be taken not to
disturb the handlebar position.
6. Using a permanent marker of some type, mark the cen-
ter of each front tire (at a height parallel to the belly
panel).

7. Measure the distance between the marks (at a height
parallel to the belly panel) at the front side; then
record the measurement.
8. Push the ATV forward until the marks are parallel to
the belly panel on the back side; then measure the
distance between the marks.
9. The difference in the measurements must show
1/8-1/4 in. toe-out (the front measurement 1/8-1/4 in.
more than the rear measurement).
10. If the difference in the measurements is not within
specifications, adjust both tie rods equally until
within specifications.
NOTE: Prior to locking the jam nuts, make sure the
ball joints are at the center of their normal range of
motion and at the correct angle.
