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, dis-
mount the ATV on the uphill side. Physically
turn the ATV around and then descend the
hill.
If you start to roll backwards, DO NOT apply
either brake abruptly. If you are in 2WD, apply
only the front brake. When this ATV is in
4WD, all wheels (front and rear) are intercon-
nected by the drive train. This means that ap-
plying either the front brake or the rear brake
will brake all wheels. When descending hills,
using either brake lever or the brake pedal will
brake the wheels on the downhill side. Avoid
sudden application of either the front or rear
brake because 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, or dismount the
ATV immediately on the uphill side.

stopped.
