MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION Vehicle Immersion If your ATV has been submerged or overturned in water deeper than the footpeg level, it's critical to dry it promptly and properly before starting the engine. CAUTION Do not start the engine after an ATV has been in water that exceeds the recommended depth. Serious engine damage WILL occur. Tow or trailer the ATV to your dealer for service. In an emergency, perform the temporary drying out procedure outlined below, which 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 suspect that water has entered the fuel tank (likely if the water was deep or if the ATV overturned). Tow or trailer the ATV to your dealer for immediate service. 1. Turn the fuel valve off. 2. Drain water from the air box and change the air filter (if equipped). See page 111. 3. Drain the fuel/water from the carburetor for about 10 seconds. 4. Remove the spark plug. See page 125. 130
