RIDING THROUGH SHALLOW WATER
The ATV can be used to cross through slow moving
shallow water - up to a maximum depth specified for each
ATV model. See “2002 Model Specifications” starting on
page 161.
Never attempt to ride any ATV in deep or fast moving
water, such as rivers or streams. The tires will float causing
the vehicle to become unstable. You could quickly lose
control and become caught in water currents.
Never enter water without first checking out the area.
Look for areas to enter and exit the water where surfaces
are stable and not slippery or loose.
Check for any hidden obstructions and holes which may
trap, disable, or result in the vehicle becoming submerged.
Travel at reduced speed.
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 specified in this Owner’s
Manual.
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 pads.
