8Never operate an ATV in fast flowing water or
in water deeper than that recommended in
this manual. Remember that wet brakes may
have reduced stopping ability. Test your
brakes after leaving water. If necessary, apply
them several times to let friction dry out the
linings.
8Always be sure there are no obstacles or peo-
ple behind you when you operate in reverse.
When it is safe to proceed in reverse, go
slowly.
8Always use the size and type tires specified in
this manual.
8Always maintain proper tire pressure as
described in this manual.
8Never modify an ATV through improper instal-
lation or use of accessories.

8Tire pressures must be equal on both
sides.
3. Tire pressure below the minimum speci-
fied could cause the tire to dislodge from
the rim under severe riding conditions.
The following are minimums:
Front 17 kPa (0.17 kg/cm
2, 0.17 bar)
Rear 22 kPa (0.22 kg/cm2, 0.22 bar)
4. Use no more than the following pres-
sures when seating the tire beads.
Front 250 kPa (2.5 kg/cm2, 2.5 bar)
Rear 250 kPa (2.5 kg/cm2, 2.5 bar)
