See what the user manual says, but my guess it probably has a neutral setting for the tow. Tow out will make it turn faster, but it will have a tendency to feel like it wanders. Tow in will make it track straight, but makes turning a little harder. Guess it's your preference. On the polaris' they are neutral to tow out.

I've REALLY smacked rocks at a pretty good clip of speed and no tie rod bends.
I've actually expected it, a couple times.

When I rebuilt my Willys Jeep years ago, I didn't want to blow money on an alignment, so I did it myself.
I had no idea how to do it....so I took a broom stick, and put 2 nails at each end and held it up the front of the tire and marked it on the tire where the nails hit. Then put in the back.
Then I measured the marks in the front and back, to find the difference. Then I turned the rod to pull or push to fix the difference.
That was 1987. It's still the same setting. I later had a shop check it out...it was dead on.
Screw lasers!! Brooms!

Dave another thing to check is side to side alignment. You can set the toe correct and end up having one side longer than the other, make any sense at all? When we raced Karts we would do quicky alignments and the karts wouldn't roll through turns. We would measure the front to back on each side and end up off on one side. It creates a pinch effect, probably not too big an issue on the quad, but still something to watch.
