If your ATV has stalled or stopped and you

believe you can continue up the hill, restart

carefully to make sure you do not lift the

front wheels which could cause you to lose

control. If you are unable to continue up

the hill, dismount the ATV on the uphill

side. Physically turn the ATV around and

then descend the hill.

If you start to roll backwards, DO NOT use

the rear brake to stop or try to put the ATV

in gear. The ATV could easily tip over back-

wards. Instead, dismount the ATV immedi-

ately on the uphill side.

WARNING

POTENTIAL HAZARD

Stalling, rolling backwards or improper-

ly dismounting while climbing a hill.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

Could result in ATV overturning.

HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

Use proper gear and maintain steady

speed when climbing a hill.

If you lose all forward speed:

Keep weight uphill.

Apply the brakes.

Lock parking brake, after you are

stopped.

If you begin rolling backwards:

Keep weight uphill.

Never apply the rear brake while roll-

ing backwards.

Apply the front brake.

When fully stopped, apply rear brake

as well, and then lock parking brake.
