Travel slowly and use extra caution when operating on unfamiliar terrain. Always be
alert to changing terrain conditions.
Operating Improperly in Reverse
• Improperly operating in reverse could result in a collision with an obstacle or
person.
Before shifting into reverse gear, always check for obstacles or people behind the
vehicle. When it's safe to proceed, back slowly.
Skidding or Sliding
• Failure to use extra caution when operating on excessively rough, slippery or
loose terrain could cause loss of traction, loss of control, accident or rollover.
Do not operate on excessively slippery surfaces. Always slow down and use
additional caution when operating on slippery surfaces.
• Skidding or sliding due to loss of traction can cause loss of control or rollover
(if tires regain traction unexpectedly).
Operating Over Obstacles
• Improperly operating over obstacles could cause loss of control or rollover.
Before operating in a new area, check for obstacles. Avoid operating over
large obstacles such as large rocks and fallen trees.
Operating Through Water
• Operating through deep or fast-flowing water can cause loss of traction,
loss of control, rollover or accident. Never operate in fast-flowing water or in
water that exceeds the floor level of the vehicle.
Wet brakes will have reduced stopping ability. After leaving water, test the brakes.
