Driving Through Water - Segway FUGLEMAN UT10 2022 Owner's Manual

Driving through water

Your vehicle can operate through water with a maximum
recommended depth equal to floor level. Follow these precautions
when operating through water:
Major engine damage can result if the vehicle is not thoroughly
inspected after operating in water. Perform the services outlined in
the Periodic Maintenance Chart. The following areas need special
attention: engine oil, transmission oil, demand drive fluid and all
grease fittings. If the vehicle tips or overturns in water, or if the
engine stops during or after operating in water, service is required
before starting the engine. Your dealer can provide this service. If it's
impossible to bring the vehicle in before starting the engine, perform
the service outlined in the Vehicle Immersion section of this manual,
and take the vehicle in for service at the first opportunity.
1. Determine water depths and current before entering water.
2. Choose a crossing where both banks have gradual inclines.
3. Avoid operating through deep or fast-flowing water.
4. After leaving water, test the brakes. Apply them lightly several
times while driving slowly. The friction will help dry out the
pads. If it's unavoidable to enter water deeper than the
footrest level.
5. Proceed slowly. Avoid rocks and obstacles.
6. Balance your weight carefully. Avoid sudden movements.
7. Maintain a steady rate of speed. Do not make sudden turns or
stops. Do not make sudden throttle changes.
