. Drive very slowly when turning. Sharp turns could cause the utility

vehicle to tip over.

. Reduce speed and exercise extreme caution on slopes or on rough

ground.

. Do not stop or start suddenly when going uphill or downhill. Be especially

cautious when changing direction on slopes.

4. Stay alert for holes, rocks and other hidden hazards in the terrain.
5. Keep away from drop-offs, ditches, embankments, as well as ponds

and other bodies of water. The machine could suddenly turn over if a

wheel is over the edge of a cliff or ditch, or if an edge caves in.

6. Braking could shift the load and affect vehicle stability.
