OPERATION Driving Through Water Your vehicle can operate through water with a maximum recommended depth equal to floor level. Follow these precautions when operating through water: 1. Determine water depth and current before entering water. 2. Choose a crossing where the water level is lowest and where both banks have gradual inclines. Never operate in water that exceeds the maximum recommended depth. Floor Level WARNING! The large tires on your vehicle may cause the vehicle to float in deep or fast-flowing water, which could result in loss of traction, loss of control, rollover or accident. 3. Wet brakes may have reduced stopping ability. After leaving water, test the brakes. Apply them lightly several times while driving slowly. The friction will help dry out the pads. NOTICE: Major engine damage can result if the vehicle is not thoroughly inspected after operation in water. Perform the services outlined in the maintenance chart. See page 77. Give special attention to engine oil, transmission oil, demand drive fluid, rear gearcase oil (if equipped), and all grease fittings. If your vehicle becomes immersed or is operated in water that exceeds the floor level, take it to your POLARIS dealer for service before starting the engine. If it's impossible to bring the vehicle to your dealer before starting the engine, perform the service outlined on page 113, and take the vehicle to your dealer at the first opportunity. 58

OPERATION
Driving Through Water
Your vehicle can operate through
water with a maximum
recommended depth equal to
floor level. Follow these
precautions when operating
through water:
1.
Determine water depth and
current before entering
water.
2.
Choose a crossing where the
water level is lowest and
where both banks have
gradual inclines. Never
operate in water that exceeds
the maximum recommended depth.
WARNING!
The large tires on your vehicle may cause the vehicle to float in
deep or fast-flowing water, which could result in loss of traction, loss of control,
rollover or accident.
3.
Wet brakes may have reduced stopping ability. After leaving water,
test the brakes. Apply them lightly several times while driving
slowly. The friction will help dry out the pads.

Major engine damage can result if the vehicle is not thoroughly
inspected after operation in water. Perform the services outlined in
the maintenance chart. See page 77. Give special attention to engine
oil, transmission oil, demand drive fluid, rear gearcase oil (if
