OPERATION Driving Safely Driving Through Water 1 Your ATV can operate through water with a maximum recommended depth equal to the bottom of the footrests (1). Follow these procedures when operating through water: 1. Determine water depths and current before crossing. 2. Choose a crossing where both banks have gradual inclines. 3. Proceed slowly, avoiding rocks and obstacles if possible. 4. After crossing, dry the brakes by applying light pressure to the lever until braking action is normal. After running the vehicle in water, it's critical to have it serviced as outlined in the maintenance chart. See page 77. The following areas need special attention: engine oil, transmission oil, front and rear gearcases, and all grease fittings. CAUTION Major engine damage can result if the vehicle is not thoroughly inspected after operation in water. Perform the services outlined in the maintenance chart. If your vehicle becomes immersed or is operated in water that exceeds the footrest level, take it to your dealer for service before starting the engine. 70
