STEERING LIMITER ADJUSTMENT:
11. Make sure the cable can slide in the
clamping blocks. Turn the vehicle’s
steering to its maximum point of
travel on the left hand side. Maintain
pressure on the bars and mark the
cable at a distance of 19 mm [3/4 in]
from the edge of the clamping blocks.
Repeat steps to adjust right side.
Figure 24.
Figure 24
CAUTION: The track systems’ angle of attack must absolutely be set before beginning
steering limiter adjustment. Refer to the User Manual for angle of attack settings.
10. Position aluminium blocks of steering
limiter assembly at center hole of
bottom part of front anchor bracket.
Use bolt, washer and nut to secure
the assembly in the center of the
anchor bracket. Tighten nut through
central opening of top part to

12. Align the mark on the cable and the
edge of the clamping blocks. In a
criss-cross sequence, tighten to
18 ft. lbs. (25 Nm) the four hex nuts.
Figure 25.
NOTE: Tighten nuts in “X” pattern to
optimize the grip of the blocks on the
cable.
Figure 25
1. Verify the suspension settings. If the shock absorbers are adjustable, they should be adjusted to the rmest
level in order to allow for maximum clearance between the system and the fender of the vehicle.
2. Verify for possible contact between the undercarriage and the lower fender. If there is contact, the fender
should be modied (cut) to avoid damage to the vehicle’s components and premature wear on rubber track.
COMPLETION:
3. For model years 2010 and later:
To prevent any contact between the
undercarriage and the mud guards,
the corners of the mud guards should
be trimmed back. This will help avoid
damage to the ATV and premature
wear on the rubber track. Figure 26
and use template illustrated in
Figure 27.
4. Lower the ATV to the ground.

ADJUSTMENTS:
CAUTION: The track systems are designed to provide the best performance in terms of
traction and oatability. Adjustments such alignment, track tension, and angle of attack are
necessary and mandatory for optimal performance of the systems. For more information
on these adjustments, refer to the ADJUSTMENT RECOMMENDATIONS or USER MANUAL
provided with the installation kit specic to the vehicle.
