Riding Techniques (cont.)
Descending Hills
• Lean slightly backward when descending (Figure 33).
• If you must stop or slow down, be sure to smoothly activate both
Front and Rear brakes to prevent a possible tip-over or the wheels
losing traction.
NOTICE
Keep in mind there is no "engine braking" or "regenerative braking"
with the SE-3 Patroller. This means the vehicle is in a "free-wheel"
mode when no throttle or brakes are applied.
• If stopped momentarily on an incline, you must keep the brakes
activated. If parking on an incline, see "Riding: Parking/Power Off,"
p. 38).
• When accelerating from a stopped position on an incline, be sure to
smoothly and slowly engage the throttle.
