If you start to roll backwards, DO NOT apply either
brake abruptly. If you are in 2WD, apply only the
front brake. If you are in 4WD or 4WD-LOCK, be-
cause 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, or dismount the ATV immediate-
ly on the uphill side.
WARNING
EWB01351
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Stalling, rolling backwards or improperly dis-
mounting while climbing a hill.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Could result in ATV overturning.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Use the proper gear and maintain a steady
speed when climbing a hill.
If you lose all forward speed:
● Keep weight uphill.
● Apply the brakes.
● Shift to the park position after you are
stopped.
If you begin rolling backwards:
● Keep weight uphill.
● 2WD: Never apply the rear brake while roll-
ing backwards. Apply the front brake.
● 4WD or 4WD-LOCK: Apply both front and
rear brakes gradually.
● When fully stopped, shift to the park posi-
tion.
Dismount on uphill side or to a side if point-
ed straight uphill. Turn the ATV around and
remount, following the procedure described
in the Owner’s Manual.
