MAINTENANCE
Steering Wheel Inspection
Check the steering wheel for specified freeplay and smooth operation at
the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on
page 41.
1. Position the vehicle on level ground.
2. Lightly turn the steering wheel left and right.
3. If there is excessive freeplay or strange noises, or the steering feels
rough or “catchy,” have the steering system inspected by an
authorized HAMMERHEAD dealer or other qualified service
facility before operating the vehicle.
Shock Spring Adjustment
The front and rear shock absorber springs are adjustable to increase or
decrease spring tension. There are five (5) adjustable positions on each
shock.
Use a round nut wrench to rotate
the adjuster to make adjustments.
The tension of the shock spring will
increase when turned left, and
decrease when turned right. Adjust
according to weight of the rider.
WARNING! Uneven adjustment may
cause poor handling of the vehicle,
which could result in an accident.
Always adjust both the left and right
spring preloads equally. Your dealer
can assist.
