OPERATION
Driving Downhill
When driving downhill, follow these precautions:
1. Avoid steep hills (25° maximum).
2. Avoid hills with excessively slippery or loose surfaces.
3. Shift body weight uphill.
4. Drive straight downhill.
5. Slow down. Never go down a hill at high speed.
6. Avoid going down a hill at an angle, which can cause the vehicle to
pitch sharply to one side.
7. Squeeze the brake lever gradually. Applying the brakes too firmly
may cause the rear wheels to lock, which could result in loss of con-
trol.
