STALLING WHILE CLIMBING A HILL
Stalling, rolling backwards or improperly
dismounting while climbing a hill could cause
a rollover.
• Always maintain a steady speed when
climbing a hill.
• Always engage ADC mode (if equipped)
before ascending or descending a hill. If
ADC mode is not equipped, apply AWD
mode before ascending or descending a
hill.
If all forward speed is lost:
• Lean forward to keep body weight uphill. A passenger should also lean uphill.
• Apply the 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.
If the ATV begins rolling downhill:
• Keep operator and passenger body weight uphill.
• Never apply engine power.
• Apply the brake lever gradually.
• When fully stopped, apply the auxiliary 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.
