Adjusting instructions
Standard adjustment has been done for about 80 kg driver If suspension appears to go to
the bottom too easily, spring preload can be increased. Some bottoming has to appear,
but it should not be strong. For an easier steering snowmobile, front rail limiting belt can be
tightened to a position 2 or 3. This act increases the ski pressure. Another possible method
to increase ski pressure and steering, is to increase slide rail rear spring preload. Spring
standard big, so even a small prealod performance gives a great effect. Usually the previous
mentioned method is recommended, if the driver’s weight is more than 80 kg, because at
the same time rail bearing capacity also increases.
Racing
• Slide rail front spring preload standard is 2 mm, limiting belt position 2 (middle)
• Slide rail rear spring preload standard is 10 mm
Adjusting procedure sama as described above.
ADJUSTING SUSPENDED EXTENSION
The function of suspended extension can be adjusted according to the driving need and
the circumstances.
A “loose” extension improves running characteristics in soft snow.
A “stiff” extension gives the best pulling effect on hard terrain and a better driving comfort
when driving with a passenger.
Adjustment
The suspension of the extension consists of elastic rubber pieces. The extension becomes
stiffer when the adjusting nut is screwed down and loose when the adjusting nut is loosened.
See the picture.
