Auxiliary Brake Adjustment (Cont.)
Polaris ATVs have two different types of auxiliary brake adjustment. Consult your
owner’s manual supplement to determine what type your machine has and adjust
accordingly.
1. Type I: If adjustment is neces-
sary turn adjuster bolt (A) clock-
wise until disc rotation becomes
difficult. Turn adjuster bolt coun-
terclockwise until brake engage-
ment starts at approximately 1/2
of the total pedal travel (See Il-
lustration).
2. Type II:If adjustment is neces-
sary, loosen jam nut (A) and turn
adjuster bolt (B) clockwise until
disc rotation becomes difficult.
Turn adjuster bolt counterclock-
wise until brake engagement
starts at approximately 1/2 of the
total pedal travel (See Illustra-
tion). Lock the locknut.
3. Check the auxiliary brake deflec-
tion daily.
