Suspension
Your front and rear suspension systems use springs and hydraulic
damping devices that suspend your weight and most of the weight
of your ATV.
The spring pre-loads for your front and rear suspension systems
adjust the amount of force required to begin compression of the
spring.
The oil damper systems hydraulically control the natural compression
and rebound of the suspension springs so that traction and comfort
are maintained as the wheels ride over rough terrain.
Consider adjusting your suspensions pre-load whenever you change
your normal load, by adding or subtracting cargo, accessories, or
when riding conditions change.
The way you ride your ATV and the type of ride you want to
experience can also influence your suspension needs.
Lower spring pre-load provides a softer ride and is usually preferred
for light loads and smooth terrain. Higher spring pre-load provides a
firmer ride and is recommended for heavy loads, rough terrain, and
faster, more challenging riding.
The suspensions can be adjusted for rider weight and riding
conditions by changing the spring pre-load.
Do not attempt to disassemble, service, or dispose of the damper;
see your dealer. The instructions found in this owner’s manual are
limited to adjustments of the shock assembly only.
