GUIDE FOR SAFE USE
Operating this vehicle through deep or fast flowing water can lead to loss of control or
overturn. To reduce your risk of drowning or other injuries, use care when crossing through
water. Wet brakes may have reduced effectiveness. After leaving the water, test your
brakes. If necessary, apply the brakes several limes to let friction dry out the linings.
NOTICE
After driving your vehicle in water, be sure to drain the trapped water by removing the check
hose at the bottom of the air filter case, the V‐belt cooling duct check hose, the drive select
lever box check hose and the V‐belt case drain plug. Wash the vehicle in fresh water if it has
been operated in salt water or muddy conditions.
LOOSE TERRAIN/SLIPPERY TERRAIN
When driving on slippery terrain, including wet, muddy, or icy conditions, as well as loose
gravel, be aware that you could begin skidding or sliding. To avoid loss of control, slow down
and put the UTV in 4WD before driving on a slippery surface and plan your path to avoid making
abrupt maneuvers.
If you feel the UTV begin to slide sideways or fishtail during a turn, steer into the direction of
the slide if possible, to regain directional control. For example, if you feel the back of the
vehicle start to slide to your right, steer to the light.
