seconds each time the engine is started 
(until the service reminder is reset.) Use

THE PERFECT FIT

IQ Front Suspension Adjustments

Independent Front Suspension (IFS)

Break in the suspension for approximately 150 miles (240 km) before 
making any fine-tuning adjustments.

Settings will vary from rider to rider, depending on rider weight, vehicle 
speed, riding style, and trail conditions. We recommend starting with 
factory settings and then customizing each adjustment individually to 
suit rider preference. The snowmobile should be methodically tested, 
one change at a time, under the same conditions (trail and snow 
conditions, vehicle speed, riding position, etc.) after each adjustment 
until the best ride is achieved. 

IFS Components

1. Skis

2. Front shocks and springs

3. Rod ends

4. A-arms

IFS Adjustment Options

• Front shock spring preload

• Optional springs

• Toe (ski alignment) (see page 106)

• Camber (see your dealer)

Front Shock Spring Preload

The factory preload setting should be appropriate for most riders and 
conditions. Please see your POLARIS dealer for assistance before 
attempting to adjust preload.

Increasing the spring preload too much may adversely affect the 
handling of the snowmobile and the performance of the rear suspension.

Decreasing the spring preload too much may allow the lower spring 
retainer to fall off.
