Improper riding procedures such as abrupt throt-
tle changes, excessive braking, incorrect body
movements, or too much speed for the sharp-
ness of the turn may cause the ATV to tip. If the
ATV begins to tip over to the outside while nego-
tiating a turn, lean more to the inside. It may
also be necessary to gradually let off on the
throttle and steer to the outside of the turn to
avoid tipping over.
Remember: Avoid higher speeds until you are
thoroughly familiar with the operation of your
ATV.
CLIMBING UPHILL
Use proper riding techniques to avoid vehicle
overturns on hills. Be sure that you can maneu-
ver your ATV well on flat ground before attempt-
ing 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 obsta-
cles that might cause you to lose control.
