TURNING AROUND ON A HILL (K-TURN)
If the vehicle stalls while climbing a hill, never back it down the hill! Use the K-
turn to turn around.
1. Stop and lock the parking brake while keeping body weight uphill.
2. Always move the 4X4 switch to ADC 4X4 before ascending or descending a
hill. See page 39.
3. Leave the transmission in forward and shut off the engine.
4. Dismount on the uphill side of the vehicle, or on the left if the vehicle is
pointing straight uphill.
5. Staying uphill of the vehicle, turn the handlebars full left.
6. While holding the brake lever, release the parking brake lock and slowly
allow the vehicle to roll around to your right until it's pointing across the hill or
slightly downward.
7. Lock the parking brake. Remount the vehicle from the uphill side, keeping
body weight uphill. Start the engine with the transmission still in forward.
8. Release the parking brake and proceed
slowly
, controlling speed with the
brake lever, until the vehicle is on more level ground.
DRIVING ON SLIPPERY SURFACES
Whenever riding on slippery surfaces such as wet trails or loose gravel, or
during freezing weather, follow these precautions:
1. Do not operate on excessively rough, slippery or loose terrain.
2. Slow down when entering slippery areas.
3. Engage 4X4 before wheels begin to lose traction.
NOTICE
Severe damage to drive train may occur if the 4X4 is engaged while the wheels
are spinning. Allow the rear wheels to stop spinning before engaging 4X4, or
engage 4X4 before wheels begin to lose traction.
4. Maintain a high level of alertness, reading the trail and avoiding quick, sharp
turns, which can cause skids.
5. Never apply the brakes during a skid. Correct a skid by turning the
handlebars in the direction of the skid and shifting your body weight forward.
