RIDING YOUR ATV
CLIMBING UPHILL
Use proper riding techniques to avoid vehicle overturns
on hills. Be sure that you can maneuver your ATV well on
flat ground before attempting any incline and then
practice riding first on gentle slopes. Try more difficult
climbs only after you have developed your skill. In all
cases avoid inclines with slippery or loose surfaces, or
obstacles that might cause you to lose control.
WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Operating on excessively steep hills.
The vehicle can overturn more easily on extremely
steep hills than on level surfaces or small hills.
Never operate the ATV on hills too steep for the ATV or
for your abilities.
Practice on smaller hills before attempting large hills.
It is important when climbing a hill to make sure that tour
weight is transferred forward on the ATV. This can be
accomplished by leaning forward and, steeper inclines,
standing on the footboards and leaning forward over the
handlebars.
