Rear Suspension Adjustments

Compression Damping

Low Compression Damping
Force Adjustment

Increase the low compression
damping force by turning the
adjuster clockwise to increase the
stiffness.

Decrease the low compression
damping force by turning the
adjuster counter-clockwise to
increase the softness.

The maximum adjustment for this
adjuster is the fully turned in
position. The minimum
adjustment is 28 clicks out from
the maximum position.

CAUTION! Do not turn the adjuster
past the minimum or maximum
adjustment. The adjuster may be
damaged.

Rebound Damping Force
Adjustment (Rear track
suspension only)

Increase the rebound damping
force by turning the adjuster
clockwise to increase the stiffness.

Decrease the rebound damping
force by turning the adjuster
counter-clockwise to increase the
softness.

The maximum adjustment for this
adjuster is the fully turned in
position. The minimum
adjustment is 16 clicks out from
the maximum position.

CAUTION! Do not turn the adjuster past the minimum or maximum adjustment.
The adjuster may be damaged.

Suspension Coupling

On all POLARIS snowmobile rear suspensions, there are two torque
arms that control the movement of the rail beam. Prior to the advent of
suspension coupling, these torque arms could move independently of
each other. Rear suspension coupling links the movement of the front
and rear torque arms to each other. There are two types of rear
suspension coupling.

Rear Suspension Adjustments

Front Rear Scissor Stop (FRSS)

The front rear scissor stop (FRSS) couples the movement of the front
torque arm with the rear torque arm and limits the amount of
independence between the movement of the front torque arm and the
rear torque arm.

When hitting a bump, the front torque arm starts to compress. The FRSS
links that movement to the rear torque arm, causing it to compress and
raise the rear suspension up as one, allowing the suspension to hit the
bump only once and eliminating kickback. Your FRSS is preset at the
factory.

Rear Rear Scissor Stop (RRSS)

The rear rear scissor stop (RRSS) couples the movement of the rear
torque arm with the front torque arm and limits the amount of
independent movement between the rear torque and the front torque
arm.

Adjusting the RRSS either allows more weight to transfer to the rear for
more traction, or allows less weight to transfer to the rear, resulting in
improved cornering performance. An adjustment dot is located on the
RRSS. This dot is on the longest end of the scissor stop.

Rear Rear Scissor Stop - Attributes

Moving the RRSS to a higher position, or forward hole, will have the
following effects on the suspension:

• Reduced weight transfer.
• Improved chatter bump ride.
• Improved cornering performance.

Weight Transfer During Acceleration

The preferred method for controlling weight
transfer during acceleration is by adjusting the rear
rear scissor stop. Use the scissor stop tool located in
your tool kit to make the adjustments.

To decrease weight transfer under acceleration (for
improved cornering), rotate the stop to a higher
position.

To increase weight transfer or ski lift during acceleration, move the stop
to the rearward upper position. The stop may also be rotated to a lower
position for even more weight transfer if desired.

Low Position - This setting will
increase weight transfer.

Medium Position - This setting is
the production setting and will
provide the best overall trail riding.

High Position - This setting will
decrease weight transfer.

Rearward Upper Position
(optional hole location) - This
setting will increase weight transfer.

TIP: Your dealer can help you with initial

setup and additional setup
instructions to help you achieve
your optimum ride.
