CROSSING THROUGH SHALLOW WATER
The ATV can be used to cross slow moving,
shallow water of up to a maximum of 20 cm in
depth. Before entering the water, choose your
path carefully. Enter where there is no sharp
drop off, and avoid rocks or other obstacles
which may be slippery or upset the ATV. Drive
slowly and carefully.
w
Never operate this ATV in fast flowing water
or in water deeper than that specified in your
Owner's Manual.
Remember
that
wet
brakes
may
have
reduced stopping ability. Test your brakes
after leaving water. If necessary, apply them
several times to let friction dry out the lin-
ings. If the ATV is operated through deep or
fast flowing water, the tires may float, caus-
ing loss of traction and loss of control,
which could lead to an accident.
