Safety Warnings
Stalling While Climbing a Hill
Stalling, rolling backwards or improperly
dismounting while climbing a hill could cause
an overturn.
• Always maintain a steady speed when
climbing a hill.
• Never operate in TURF mode while
operating on a hill or other irregular terrain.
Always move the 4X4 switch to ADC 4X4
before ascending or descending a hill. See
page 38.
If all forward speed is lost:
• Lean forward to keep body weight uphill. A passenger should also lean uphill.
• Apply the single lever brakes.
• Lock the parking brake when fully stopped.
• Dismount on the uphill side of the vehicle, or on the left if the vehicle is
pointing straight uphill. Have a passenger dismount first, then the operator
may dismount.
• Turn the ATV around and remount, following the procedure described in the
owner's manual. See page 66.
If the ATV begins rolling backwards:
• Keep operator and passenger body weight uphill.
• Never apply engine power.
• Never apply the rear brake while rolling backwards.
• Apply the single-lever brake gradually.
• When fully stopped, apply the foot brake as well, and then lock the parking
brake.
• Dismount on the uphill side of the vehicle, or on the left if the vehicle is
pointing straight uphill. Have a passenger dismount first, then the operator
may dismount.
• Turn the ATV around and remount, following the procedure described in the
owner's manual. See page 66.
Operating on Steep Hills
Operating on excessively steep hills could
cause an overturn.
Never operate on hills too steep for the ATV or
for your abilities. Never operate the ATV on
hills steeper than 15 degrees.
