RIDING THE VEHICLE
Uphill
Keep your body weight forward towards the top of the hill. Keep your feet on the
footpegs and shift into low gear then accelerate and when necessary, change gear
quickly as you climb. Do not over-speed since this may cause the front of the vehi-
cle to lift from the ground and fall back on you. If the hill is too steep and you cannot
proceed or the vehicle begins to roll backwards, apply the brake, being careful not
to slide. Dismount then use the “U“ turn or “K“ turn (while walking back, next to
the vehicle on the up hill side and with a hand on the brake lever, slowly back the
rear of the vehicle toward the top of the hill then drive downhill). Always walk or
dismount on the upside of the slope while keeping clear of the vehicle and its ro-
tating wheels. Do not try to hold on to the vehicle if it begins to topple. Stay clear.
Do not ride over the crest of the hill at high speed. Obstacles, including sharp drop-
offs, may exist.
