WARNING
Operating this vehicle through deep or fast-
8
flowing water can lead to loss of control or an
overturn. To reduce your risk of drowning or
9
other injuries, use care when crossing through
water. Never operate this ATV water deeper
10
than the depth specified in your Owner's Man-
11
ual, as tires may float, increasing the risk of an
overturn.
The ATV can be used to cross slow moving, shal-
low water of up to a maximum of 35 cm (14 in) in
depth. Before entering the water, choose your path
OK
7-17
carefully. Enter where there is no sharp drop off,
and avoid rocks or other obstacles which may be
slippery or upset the ATV. Drive slowly and care-
fully.
Test your brakes after leaving the water. If neces-
sary, apply them several times to let friction dry out
the linings. Do not continue to ride your ATV with-
out verifying that you have regained proper braking
ability. WARNING! Wet brakes may have re-
duced stopping ability, which could cause loss
of control.
