7 If you start to roll backwards, DO NOT apply either brake abruptly. If you are in "2WD", apply only the front brake. When fully stopped, apply the rear brake as well, and then shift to the park position. If you are in "4WD", because all wheels are interconnected by the drive train, applying either brake will brake all wheels, therefore, avoid sudden application of either the front or rear brake as the wheels on the uphill side could come off the ground. The ATV could easily tip over backwards. Apply both the front and rear brakes gradually. When fully stopped, shift to the park position and dismount the ATV immediately on the uphill side, or to a side if pointed straight uphill. Turn the ATV around and remount, following the procedure described in the Owner's Manual. WARNING! Stalling, rolling backwards or improperly dismounting while climbing a hill could result in ATV overturning. If you cannot control the ATV, dismount immediately on the uphill side. [EWB01802] RIDING DOWNHILL EWB01621 WARNING Going down a hill improperly could cause overturns or loss of control. Always follow proper procedures for going down hills as described in this Owner's Manual. G Always check the terrain carefully before you start down any hill. G Never operate the ATV on hills too steep for the ATV or for your abilities. The ATV can overturn more easily on extremely steep hills than on level surfaces or small hills. 7-16

If you start to roll backwards, DO NOT apply either
brake abruptly. If you are in “2WD”, apply only the
front brake. When fully stopped, apply the rear
brake as well, and then shift to the park position. If
you are in “4WD”, because all wheels are intercon-
nected by the drive train, applying either brake will
brake all wheels, therefore, avoid sudden applica-
tion of either the front or rear brake as the wheels
on the uphill side could come off the ground. The
ATV could easily tip over backwards. Apply both
the front and rear brakes gradually. When fully
stopped, shift to the park position and dismount the
ATV immediately on the uphill side, or to a side if
pointed straight uphill. Turn the ATV around and
remount, following the procedure described in the
Owner’s Manual.
WARNING! Stalling, rolling
backwards or improperly dismounting while
climbing a hill could result in ATV overturning.
If you cannot control the ATV, dismount imme-
diately on the uphill side.
