Adjustable Headlight

NOTE

The image below is for reference only. Your model may differ slightly.

The headlight can be adjusted for vertical aim using the following procedure.

In a well-ventilated area, position the snowmobile on a level surface with the headlight approximately 25 feet (7.6 m) from a wall .
Place the rider or the approximate weight of the rider on the seat or tunnel floorboards.
Measure the distance from the floor to the center of the headlight and make a mark on the wall at the same height.
Start the engine. Move the headlight switch to high beam.
Observe the headlight aim on the wall. The most intense part of the headlight beam should be two inches (5 cm) below the mark on the wall.
If adjustment is necessary, access the headlight adjuster knob through the left side panel. Turn the adjuster knob clockwise to lower the beam. Turn the adjuster counter-clockwise to raise the beam.
