OPERATION
Driving Downhill
When driving downhill, follow
these precautions:
1. Always move the 4X4 switch
to ADC 4X4 before ascending
or descending a hill. See page
30.
2. Avoid hills with slippery or
loose surfaces.
3. Never drive downhill at high
speed. Slow down.
4. Drive straight downhill.
Avoid driving downhill at an
angle, which can cause the
vehicle to pitch sharply to one side.
5. Shift your weight rearward.
6. Apply the brakes slightly to aid in slowing.
Always follow the procedures outlined in this
manual for driving downhill and for braking on
hills.
Never operate at excessive speeds. Travel
and turn at speeds appropriate for the terrain,
visibility, operating conditions and your
experience.
