Always follow proper procedures for crossing the side of a hill as described in this manu-
al. Avoid hills with excessively slippery or loose surfaces. Shift your weight to the
uphill side of the ATV. Never attempt to turn the ATV around on any hill until you have
mastered the turning technique described in this manual on level ground. Avoid crossing
the side of a steep hill if possible.

Always use proper procedures if you stall or roll backwards when climbing a hill. To
avoid stalling, maintain a steady speed when climbing a hill. If you stall or roll back-
wards, follow the special procedure for braking described in this manual. Dismount on
the uphill side or to either side if pointed straight uphill. Turn the ATV around and re-
mount, following the procedure described in this manual.

when operating over obstacles as described in this manual.
