CLIMBING A HILL
WARNING
Climbing hills improperly could be
hazardous.
Climbing hills improperly could cause
loss of control or cause the ATV to
overturn.
Always follow the proper procedures for
climbing hills as described in this
section. Always check the terrain carefully before you start up any hill.
Never climb hills with excessively slippery or loose surfaces.
Shift your body forward.
Never open the throttle suddenly. The ATV could flip over backwards.
Never go over the top of any hill at a high speed. An obstacle, a sharp
drop, or another vehicle or person could be on the other side of the hill.
To climb a hill with the ATV, follow the
directions below.
1. Speed up and maintain a steady speed
before reaching the top of the hill.
Remember that you must ride at a
steady speed all the way to the top of
the hill.
2. Shift your body forward by sliding
forward on the seat. Lean slightly
forward. For steep hills, stand on the
footrests and lean forward.
3. Maintain a steady speed while climbing
the hill.
4. Slow down gradually when you reach
the top of the hill.
