If your ATV has stalled or stopped and you believe you
can continue up the hill, restart carefully to make sure
you do not lift the front wheels which could cause you
to lose control. If you are unable to continue up the hill,
dismount the ATV on the uphill side. Physically turn the
ATV around and then descend the hill.
If you start to roll backwards, DO NOT applyeither brake
abruptly. If you are in 2WD, apply only the front brake.
When this ATV is in 4WD, all wheels (front and rear)
are interconnected by the drive train. This means that
applying either the front brake or the rear brake will
brake all wheels.
When descending hills, using either brake lever or the
brake pedal will brake the wheels on the down hill side.
Avoid sudden application of either the front or rear brake
because the wheels on the uphill side could come off the
ground. The ATV could easily tip over backwards. Apply
both the front and rear brakes gradually, or dismount the
ATV immediately on the uphill side.
POTENTIAL HAZARD

climbing a hill.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN

HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Maintain steady speed when climbing a hill.If you lose all
forward speed:
