Riding Through Water
Riding Your ATV
Basic Operation & Riding
If the brakes don’t regain effectiveness, stop your ATV and follow
the procedures on page
.
If necessary, apply the brakes repeatedly until they dry out and
operate normally.
Riding through water can make the brakes less effective than
normal, and may reduce stopping ability.
After leaving the water, always test both the front and rear brakes.
Avoid getting the spark plug or air cleaner wet, as this would cause
the engine to stop.
Watch out for submerged obstacles and slippery rocks.
Proceed through the water at a slow, steady speed.
Choose a path where both banks have gradual slopes.
Your ATV is designed to travel through water up to approximately
254 mm (10 inches) deep. Before crossing a stream, make sure the water
is not too deep or flowing too fast.
