Driving Uphill
Whenever traveling uphill, follow these precautions:
1. Always travel straight uphill.
2. Avoid steep hills (22 maximum).
3. Keep both feet on the footrests.
4. Shift your weight forward.
5. Proceed at a steady rate of speed and throttle opening.
6. Remain alert and be prepared to take emergency action. This may
include quick dismounting of the vehicle.
If all forward speed is lost:
Keep your weight uphill.
Apply the front brake. When fully stopped, apply rear brake as well, then shift gear selector into park
position.
If the ATV begins rolling backwards:
Keep your weight uphill. Never apply engine power. Never apply the rear brake while rolling backwards.
Apply the front brake. When fully stopped, apply the rear brake as well, and then shift gear selector
into park position.
Dismount on uphill side, or to either side if ATV is pointed straight uphill. Turn the ATV around and
remount. .
