SUSPENSION ADJUSTMENT
This unit is equipped with adjustable shock
assemblies. The shocks can be adjusted to vary the
amount of pre-load applied to the springs. This allows
the operator to customize the ride according to
operator’s weight and/or operating conditions.
Less Pre-Load:
• Light operator weight
• Softer, more cushioned ride
• Best for relatively flat terrain
More Pre-Load:
• Heavy operator weight
• Stiffer, more rigid ride
• Better handling and greater stability on hilly terrain

REAR
To adjust the spring pre-load:
1. Locate the pe-load adjuster collar on the shock
assembly. See Figure 46.
2. Using the supplied spanner wrench (p/n
5022853), insert the tip of the wrench into the
notch in the pre-load adjuster. While holding the
wrench in place with one hand, turn COUNTER-
CLOCKWISE to increase the pre-load, turn
CLOCKWISE to decrease the pre-load. Make
sure that both front shocks are set to the same
amount of pre-load. Make sure that both rear
shocks are set to the same amount of pre-load.
NOTE: Spanner wrench is located under the seat, in
between the water separator and the brake cable.
NOTE: It is recommended that the rear suspension
be adjusted stiffer due to the added weight of the
collection system.
