ADJUSTMENTS WARNING Severe injury or death can result from improper toe alignment and adjustment. Do not attempt to adjust tie rod alignment. All tie rod adjustments should be performed by an authorized Polaris dealer. Toe Alignment Use the following procedure to check the toe alignment of the vehicle. The Predator is designed for a neutral toe setting. 1. Set the handlebars in a straight-ahead position. Use tie straps to secure the handlebars so they can't move. NOTE: The steering arm can be used as an indicator of whether the handlebars are straight. The arm should always point straight back from the steering post. 2. Place stands (1) in front of the vehicle, perpendicular to the rear tires. See illustration. 144
