RIDING THROUGH WATER
You can ride the LT-Z50 through shal-
low water. Make sure it is not more
than 10 cm (4 in) deep and is not
moving fast. Choose a good place to
cross before you ride through any
water. Look for a spot where the
banks are gently sloped on both sides
and the bottom of the stream is hard.
If you are unfamiliar with the area,
park the LT-Z50 and inspect the
stream first to find a suitable spot for
crossing. When crossing, operate the
ATV at a slow, steady speed. Be care-
ful not to damage banks when cross-
ing.
WARNING
Operating this ATV through deep
or fast flowing water can be haz-
ardous.
The ATV tires may float, causing
loss of traction and loss of con-
trol. This could lead to an acci-
dent.
• Never operate this ATV in fast
flowing water or in water deeper
than described in this section.
• Remember that wet brakes may
have reduced stopping ability.
Test your brakes after leaving
the water. If necessary, apply
them several times to let friction
dry out the linings.
CAUTION
Operating the ATV in water, sand,
or mud causes rapid brake wear.
Excessive brake wear can cause
the brakes to be less effective.
After repeated operation of the
ATV in these condition, bring it to
your Suzuki dealer to have the
brakes inspected and cleaned.
WARNING
Indicates a potential hazard that
could result in injury or death.
