4. Operating Instructions

Once installed, the SuperATV EZ-STEER Power Steering Kit operates automatically to provide steering assistance. There are no user-adjustable settings or controls required during operation.

• Reduced Steering Effort: The system actively reduces the physical effort required to turn the steering wheel, especially at low speeds or when navigating challenging terrain.
• Speed Sensitive Unit: The power steering assistance is speed-sensitive, meaning it provides more assistance at lower speeds for easier maneuverability and less assistance at higher speeds for improved road feel and stability.
• Eliminates Negative Steering Feedback: The system is designed to virtually eliminate bump steer and other unwanted feedback from the terrain, providing a smoother and more controlled steering experience.

Simply operate your Polaris Scrambler as usual, and the EZ-STEER system will seamlessly enhance your driving experience.

5. Maintenance

The SuperATV EZ-STEER Power Steering Kit is designed for minimal maintenance. Due to its sealed and watertight components, regular servicing is generally not required.

• Periodic Inspection: Periodically inspect all visible wiring and connections for any signs of wear, damage, or loose connections. Ensure the watertight seals on the control box and connectors remain intact.
• Cleaning: Keep the power steering unit and control box free from excessive dirt, mud, or debris. Use a damp cloth to wipe down components as needed. Avoid high-pressure washing directly on electrical components.
• Component Integrity: Check mounting hardware periodically to ensure all bolts and fasteners remain tight and secure.

If any component appears damaged or compromised, contact SuperATV support for assistance.

6. Troubleshooting

If you experience any issues with your EZ-STEER Power Steering Kit, consider the following basic troubleshooting steps:

  • Verify that the vehicle's battery is fully charged and providing adequate power.
  • Inspect the wiring harness for any visible cuts, pinches, or damage.
• Intermittent Assistance:
  • Ensure all connections are tight and not vibrating loose during operation.
  • Check for any signs of water ingress into the control box or connectors.
• Unusual Noises:
  • Confirm that the power steering unit and all mounting hardware are securely fastened and not rubbing against other components.

For persistent issues or problems not resolved by these steps, please contact SuperATV's knowledgeable support staff for further assistance. Do not attempt to disassemble the power steering unit or control box, as this may void your warranty.
