11. RIDING
Turning Around On A Hill
If the ATV stalls while climbing a hill, never back it down the hill!
One maneuver which can be used when it is necessary to turn
around while climbing a hill is the K-turn.
1. Stop and lock the parking brake while maintaining body
weight uphill.
2. Shut off engine.
3. Dismount on left or uphill side of ATV.
4. Staying uphill of ATV, turn handlebars full left (while facing
front of ATV).
5. While holding brakes, release parking brake lock and slowly
allows ATV to roll around to your right until ATV is pointing
across the hill or slightly downward.
6. Lock the parking brake and remount ATV from the uphill side,
maintaining body weight uphill.
7. Restart engine, release parking brake, and proceed slowly,
controlling speed with the service brake, until ATV is on
reasonably level ground.
WARNING
Avoid climbing steep hills. Loss of vehicle control or overturning
of the ATV could occur resulting in severe injury or death.
