1. On some models, measuring ski toe must be done with the skis off the
ground. Refer to the ski toe measurement table above.
2. If your model requires lifting the skis off the ground, safely elevate the front
end of the snowmobile using a floor jack.
3. If your model does not require lifting the skis, make sure only vehicle weight
is compressing the suspension when measuring.
4. Place the handlebars in a straight-ahead position.
5. Measure 10 inches (25.4 cm) forward from the center of the ski mounting
bolt
e
. At this point, measure between the skis. This is measurement
q
.
6. Perform the same measurement rearward from the center of the ski
mounting bolt. This is measurement
w
.
7. The
q
measurement should be greater than the
w
measurement by the
amount shown in the ski toe measurement table. If the skis are misaligned,
or if ski toe requires adjustment, your dealer can assist.
SKI SKAGS
See your dealer’s studding chart for recommended skags. If you install longer or
more aggressive carbide skags than the original equipment, it may also be
necessary to add track studs to maintain proper vehicle control while turning on
hard-packed snow or ice.
