●
Never operate the ATV on hills too steep for
the ATV or for your abilities. Practice on
smaller hills before attempting larger hills.
●
Always follow proper procedures for climb-
ing hills as described in this manual. Check
the terrain carefully before you start up any
hill. Never climb hills with excessively slip-
pery or loose surfaces. Shift your weight
forward. Never open the throttle suddenly.
Never go over the top of a hill at high speed.
●
Always follow proper procedures for going
down hills and for braking on hills as de-
scribed in this manual. Check the terrain
carefully before you start down any hill.
Shift your weight backward. Never go down
a hill at high speed. Avoid going down a hill
at an angle that would cause the vehicle to
lean sharply to one side. Go straight down
the hill where possible.
