MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Vehicle Immersion
If your ATV has been submerged or overturned in water deeper than the footpeg level, it’s
critical to dry it promptly and properly before starting the engine.
CAUTION
Do not start the engine after an ATV has been in water that exceeds the
recommended depth. Serious engine damage WILL occur. Tow or trailer the ATV to
your dealer for service. In an emergency, perform the temporary drying out procedure
outlined below, which will allow short-term operation only, to drive the ATV to a trailer
or towing vehicle.
Do not perform the following procedures if you don’t feel completely capable, or if you
suspect that water has entered the fuel tank (likely if the water was deep or if the ATV
overturned). Tow or trailer the ATV to your dealer for immediate service.
