RIDING THE VEHICLE
Uphill
There are two types of hills you can encounter — the open hill on
which there are few trees, cliffs or other obstacles, and a hill that
can only be climbed directly. On an open hill, the approach is to
climb it by side hilling or slaloming. Approach at an angle. Adopt a
standing position with both feet on the same running board. Keep
your weight on the uphill side at all times. Maintain a steady, safe
speed. Continue as far as you can in this direction, then switch to an
opposite hill angle and riding position.
A direct climb could present problems. Choose the standing posi-
tion, accelerate before you start the climb and then reduce throttle
pressure to prevent track slippage.
In either case, vehicle speed should be as fast as the incline de-
mands. Always slow down as you reach the crest. If you cannot
proceed further, don't spin your track. Apply the parking brake,
turn the engine off, free the skis by pulling them out and downhill,
place the rear of the snowmobile uphill, restart the engine, release
the parking brake and ease it out with slow even throttle pressure.
Position yourself to avoid tipping over, then descend.
Downhill
Downhill driving requires that you have full control of your vehicle
at all times. On steeper hills, keep your center of gravity low and
both hands on the handlebar. Maintain slight throttle pressure and
allow the machine to run downhill with the engine operating. If a
higher than safe speed is reached, slow down by braking but apply
the brake with frequent light pressure. Never jam the brake and lock
the track.
Side Hill
When crossing a side hill or traversing up or downhill, certain proce-
dures must be followed. All riders should lean towards the slope as
required for stability. The preferred operating positions are the kneel-
ing position, with the knee of the down hill leg on the seat and the
foot of the uphill leg on the running board, or the posting position. Be
prepared to shift your weight quickly as needed. Side hills and steep
slopes are not recommended for a beginner or a novice snowmobiler.
