Control functions FX10M53S/FX10M62S A shock absorber pump is provided with your snowmobile to adjust the air pressure of the shock absorbers. This pump is equipped with an air pressure gauge. One side of the gauge has a low-pressure meter and the other side of the gauge has a high-pressure meter. Use the low-pressure meter to adjust the front shock absorbers. 1.

TIP
To allow pressure to escape from the pump
and the shock absorber, push the button half-
way down and hold it. To allow only a small
amount of pressure to escape, push the but-
ton all the way down and quickly release it.
6.
Remove the hose connector from the air
valve.
TIP
When removing the connector, the sound of
air escaping may be heard, but this is from the
pump hose, not the shock absorber.
7.
Install the air valve cap.
TIP
If the front shock absorber bottoms too easily
or rolls too much during cornering, increase
the air pressure by 34 kPa (0.3 kgf/cm², 5 psi).
If the shock absorber is too firm and you want
a more compliant ride, decrease the air pres-
sure by 34 kPa (0.3 kgf/cm², 5 psi).

Support the snowmobile securely on a
suitable stand before adjusting the shock
absorbers. Otherwise, the snowmobile
could fall and cause injury.

tended before making any air pressure ad-
justments.
