MAINTENANCE
Vehicle Immersion
NOTICE: If your vehicle becomes immersed, major engine damage can result if the machine is not
thoroughly inspected. Take the vehicle to your dealer before starting the engine.
If it's impossible to take your BRUTUS to a dealer before starting it, follow the steps
outlined below.
1. Move the vehicle to dry land or at the very least, to water below the floorboards.
2. Drain water from the intake drain valve and thoroughly dry the pre-filter box (located at
the left OPS post). See page 90.
3. Dry any water that is present in the air cleaner housing. Filter replacement is required if
water is present.
4. Remove the air intake resonator box and drain any water that is present. Dry the box
thoroughly.
NOTICE: If you believe water has entered the engine, Do Not start the engine. Engine damage will
result. Take the vehicle to your dealer before starting the engine.
5. Take the vehicle to your dealer for service as soon as possible, whether you succeed in
starting it or not.
6. Check the hydraulic fluid and differential fluid. If any indication of moisture is present,
replace the fluid and filters.
