Compression Damping Adjustable Shocks
Snowmobiles equipped with the Indy Select or Ryde FX
t
shocks allow the driver to make adjustments to the
compression valving by turning the screw located near the base of the shock.
Adjustment
Locate the adjustment screw near the base of the shock.
NOTE:
This adjustment is easiest to make with the
machine tipped on its side.
WARNING
Be sure to shut off the fuel supply before tipping the machine to prevent fuel spillage and flooding of the carbure-
tors.
By turning the screw clockwise (a small screwdriver or dime work well), the compression valving is increased,
stiffening the ride. To soften the ride, reduce the compression by turning the screw counter-clockwise. A great
deal of ride performance is accomplished with a mere 1/2 to 1 turns. There are approximately 3 full turns of adjust-
ment available.
How to Adjust IFS
If the suspension is “bottoming,” tighten the compression screw clockwise in 1/2 turn increments until the bottom-
ing stops. Backing off 1/4 turn counter-clockwise at this point should give you the best possible ride ensuring use
of the full travel of the suspension. The opposite procedure should be used if the suspension is too stiff upon initial
set-up.
If bottoming continues after the screw is turned in full clockwise, the compression spring should be adjusted with
the threaded adjustment collar. Back the screw out to the original starting position after the compression spring
has been adjusted.
Riding conditions are ever changing. Keep in mind the compression damping adjustable screw can be adjusted
at any time to achieve the best possible ride in any condition.
NOTE:
Whenever shocks are replaced or reinstalled for any reason, the adjustment screw should be located to-
ward the inside of the suspension. Access to the adjuster is not possible if reversed. Fox
ä
Shocks should be
installed with the charge fitting up.
