CROSSING THROUGH SHALLOW WATER
The ATV can be used to cross slow moving, shal-
low water of up to a maximum of 20 cm (8 in) in
depth. Before entering the water, choose your path
carefully. Enter where there is no sharp drop off,
and avoid rocks or other obstacles which may be
slippery or upset the ATV. Drive slowly and care-
fully.

Avoid hills with excessively slippery or loose
surfaces.
Shift your weight to the uphill side of the
ATV.
WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Operating this 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 acci-
dent.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Never operate this ATV in fast flowing water
or in water deeper than that specified in your
