power, turn off the engine, dismount, and physically turn the machine around.
CAUTION - To avoid overturning, the operator must exercise a high degree of caution when dismounting or
moving this vehicle on a hillside.
Descending Hills
It is usually advisable to descend hills with the vehicle pointed directly downhill, avoiding angles that would
cause the vehicle to lean sharply to one side. As you approach the point of descent, stop and survey the
terrain below. Never drive headlong past your limit of visibility. When you have picked a safe path of descent,
descend slowly with the throttle closed. Sit back on the seat, with arms extended and braced on the steering
wheel.
When descending it is recommended that the operator apply the brakes intermittently to further reduce
forward speed. Braking effectiveness is reduced while descending any incline with a loose surface.
