Steering System
Ski Skags
WARNING! Worn skis and/or skags will adversely affect handling. Loss of
vehicle control may result, causing serious injury or death. See your dealer's
studding chart for recommended skags.
Check skags before each use of the snowmobile to ensure positive
steering characteristics. Skags must be replaced when worn to half their
original diameter.
TIP: Carbide skags must be replaced if any abnormal wear or chipping is found.
Skag Replacement
1. Raise and support the front of the
snowmobile so the skis are
approximately 6 inches (15.2 cm)
from the ground.
2. Remove the attaching nuts and
pry the skag downward.
3. Remove the front end of the skag.
4. Remove the rear end of the skag.
5. Reverse the steps to install a skag.
Rail Slide Wear
For ease of inspection, all
POLARIS rail slides have a wear
limit indicator groove to indicate
the minimum permissible slide
thickness. Replace the rail slides
if they are worn to the top of the
groove at any point along their
length. Failure to do so may
result in permanent damage to the
track or rails.
