cargo.
* Always park on level ground, stop engine, set parking

and reduce speed according to visibility, trail, and terrain
conditions.
* Avoid water crossings when possible and never cross
a body of water where depth is unknown. Loss of power
will occur if the drive belt becomes submerged or wet.
Unnecessary crossing of streams and waterways

you must cross, do it at a point where banks are not
steep and proceed at a slow and steady speed.
* Front bumper and brush guards are not designed as
pusher bars. Do not attempt to push other vehicles or
implements or damage may result.
