Suspension Troubleshooting

X-10 and Edge

Problem	Solution (perform only one change at a time)
Rear suspension	-Increase torsion spring preload
bottoms too easily	-Increase rear shock compression damping by turning screw
	clockwise
	-Increase torsion spring wire diameter (see your dealer)
Rides too stiff in	-Check for binding suspension shafts and grease all pivot points
rear	-Decrease torsion spring preload adjustments
	-Decrease rear shock compression valving by turning screw
	counterclockwise (if equipped with optional Indy Select shock)
	-Change to lighter valving if (if equipped with Fox shocks)
	-Check for proper track tension
Machine darts from	-Make sure skis are aligned properly
side to side	-Make sure spindles and all steering components are free turning
	-Make sure skags are straight on skis
	-Check Hi-fax and replace if worn
	-Reduce ski pressure:
	SReduce IFS spring preload
	SReduce rear torsion spring preload
Front end pushes	-Check for worn skags
	-Check for binding suspension shafts and grease all pivot points
	-Increase IFS spring preload by adjusting cam or threaded ad-
	juster
	-Decrease front limiter strap length
Steering is heavy	-Check ski alignment
	-Check skags and skis for damage
