Turning Around on a Hill
5. Staying uphill of the ATV, turn the handlebars full left.
Reach across the handlebar and apply the front brakes to
unlock the park brake.
6. With the front brakes applied, pull in the clutch
lever. Use the brakes to slowly allow the vehicle to
roll around to your right until it’s pointing across
the hill or slightly downward.
7. With the front brakes still applied, release the
clutch lever and lock the park brake. Remount
from the uphill side, keeping body weight uphill.
8. Pull in the clutch lever, shift into neutral and restart the engine.
9. Release the park brake and slowly release the clutch lever, allowing the AT V to proceed
slowly. Stay in first gear, using the brakes for additional speed control if necessary, until
more level ground is reached. Do not apply the brakes abruptly when driving downhill.
