OPERATION Driving Safely Driving Through Water Your ATV can operate through water with a maximum recommended depth equal to the level of the footpegs (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 1 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 91. The engine oil and all grease fittings need special attention. 86
