Safety Warnings
Operating Over Obstacles
Improperly operating over obstacles
could cause loss of control or overturn.
Before operating in a new area, check
for obstacles. Never attempt to operate
over large obstacles such as rocks or
fallen trees. Always follow the proper
procedures outlined in this manual
when operating over obstacles.
Skidding or Sliding
Skidding or sliding can cause loss of control or overturn (if tires regain traction
unexpectedly). Always follow proper procedures for operating on slippery
surfaces as described in the owner's manual.
When operating on slippery surfaces such as ice or loose gravel, reduce speed
and use extra caution to reduce the chance of skidding or sliding.
Do not operate on excessively slippery surfaces.
Operating Through Water
Operating through deep or fast-flowing
water can cause loss of traction, loss of
control, overturn or accident. Never operate
in fast-flowing water or in water that
exceeds the recommended maximum
depth.
Always follow proper procedures for
operating in water as described in the
owner's manual.
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.
