Always use proper procedures if you stall or
roll backwards when climbing a hill. To
avoid stalling, use proper gear range and
maintain a steady speed when climbing a
hill. If you stall or roll backwards, follow the
special procedure for braking described in
this manual. Dismount on the uphill side or
to a side if pointed straight uphill. Turn the
ATV around and remount, following the
procedure described in this manual.
●
Always check for obstacles before operat-
ing in a new area.
Never attempt to operate over large obsta-
cles, such as large rocks or fallen trees. Al-
ways follow proper procedures when
operating over obstacles as described in
this manual.
●
Always be careful when skidding or sliding.
Learn to safely control skidding or sliding
by practicing at low speeds and on level,
smooth terrain. On extremely slippery sur-
faces, such as ice, go slowly and be very
cautious in order to reduce the chance of
skidding or sliding out of control.
