When traversing a slope, you should:
1. Lean your body uphill.
2. Steer slightly uphill, if necessary, to maintain a
straight course.
RIDING OVER OBSTACLES
WARNING
Crossing hills or turning on hills improperly could be
hazardous.
Crossing hills or turning on hills improperly could cause
loss of control or overturn.
Never attempt to turn the ATV around on any hill until you
have mastered the turning technique as described in the
CLIMBING A HILL section. Practice this technique on level
ground. Be very careful when turning on any hill. Avoid
crossing the side of a steep hill if possible.
WARNING
Operating this ATV over obstacles improperly could be hazardous.
Improperly crossing obstacles could cause loss of control or a collision. It
would also cause the ATV to overturn.
If you come to an obstacle that you cannot avoid, you may be able to cross
over it by using the following procedure.
1. If the obstacle is in front of you, approach at walking speed.
2. Rise up slightly on the footrests.
3. Pull up on the handlebar and apply a little throttle as the front wheels reach the
obstacle.
4. Lean forward and release the throttle after the front wheels are over the
obstacle.
Remember that some obstacles are too high for your ATV or for your abilities.
If you are not sure that you can safely cross over an obstacle, back up and ride
around the obstacle.
