Operator Safety
WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD: Operating the ATV through deep or fast-flowing water.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN: Tires may float, causing loss of traction and loss of control,
which could lead to an accident or overturn.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD: Avoid operating the ATV through deep or
fast-flowing water. If it’s unavoidable to enter water that exceeds the
recommended maximum depth (see page 87), travel slowly, balance your weight
carefully, avoid sudden movements, and maintain a slow and steady forward
motion. Do not make sudden turns or stops, and do not make sudden throttle
changes.
Wet brakes may have reduced stopping ability. Always test the brakes after
leaving water. If necessary, apply them several times to let friction dry out the
pads.
