CROSSING THROUGH SHALLOW WATER
The ATV can be used to cross slow moving,
shallow water of up to a maximum of 35 cm
(14 inches) in depth. Before entering the wa-
ter, choose your path carefully. Enter where
there is no sharp drop off, and avoid rocks or
other obstacles which may be slippery or up-
set the ATV. Drive slowly and carefully.
WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Operating this ATV through deep or fast
flowing water.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Tires may float, causing loss of traction
and loss of control, which could lead to
an accident.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Never operate this ATV in fast flowing
water or in water deeper than that spec-
ified in your Owner’s Manual.
Remember that wet brakes may have re-
duced stopping ability. Test your brakes
after leaving water. If necessary, apply
them several times to let friction dry out
the linings.
