Skis
Skis guide the machine’s forward momentum, and allow turning when the operator turns the handlebars. They may be made of metal or plastic. Like a car’s front tires, skis must be maintained and kept in proper alignment. Skis that are out of line make it difficult to steer. To check alignment, place the machine on a solid surface and turn the handlebars straight ahead. Measure the distance between the skis at the front and the rear. Refer to the owner’s manual for proper ski alignment and have repairs made promptly by a qualified mechanic.
