When riding your ATV downhill, shift your weight
as far to the rear and uphill side of the ATV as pos-
sible. Move back on the seat and sit with your arms
straight. Engine compression will do most of the
braking for you.
Use caution while descending a hill with loose or
slippery surfaces. Braking ability and traction may
be adversely affected by these surfaces. Improper
braking may also cause a loss of traction. Gradual-
ly apply only the rear brake.
Whenever possible, ride your ATV straight down-
hill. Avoid sharp angles which could allow the ATV
to tip or roll over. Carefully choose your path and
ride no faster than you will be able to react to ob-
stacles which may appear.
CROSSING A SLOPE
EWB01632
Improperly crossing hills or turning on hills
could cause loss of control or cause the ATV to
overturn.
● Always follow proper procedures as de-
scribed in the Owner’s Manual.
● Avoid hills with excessively slippery or loose
surfaces.
● Avoid crossing the side of a steep hill.
