Driving Through Water
Your Polaris
RANGER
can operate through water up to a maximum
recommended depth equal to the floorboards (1). Follow these
procedures when operating through water:
1. Always determine water
depths and current before
entering.
2. Choose a crossing where
both banks have gradual
inclines.
3. Proceed slowly, avoiding
rocks and obstacles.
4. After leaving water, always
dry the brakes by applying
light pressure to the lever
repeatedly until braking
action is normal.
NOTE:
After running your vehicle in water, it’s
critical
that you
perform the services outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Schedule
beginning on page 54. Give special attention to engine oil,
transmission oil, front and rear gearcases, and all grease fittings.
WARNING
The large tires on your
RANGER
may cause the vehicle to float in
deep or fast-flowing water, which could result in loss of control and
lead to serious injury or death. Never cross deep or fast-flowing
water with your
RANGER
.
