Maintenance
Vehicle Immersion
If the vehicle tips or overturns in water deeper than the footpeg level, or if the engine stops
during or after operating in water, restarting WILL result in serious engine damage. Trans-
port the vehicle to your dealer for service before restarting the engine. If this is not possible,
follow the vehicle immersion inspection and drying procedures outlined below. This proce-
dure will allow short-term operation only to drive the ATV to a trailer or towing vehicle.
Do not perform the following procedures if you don't feel completely capable, or if you sus-
pect that water has entered the fuel tank (likely if the water was deep or if the ATV over-
turned). Tow or trailer the ATV to your dealer for immediate service.
